Pharmacogenetic studies of thiopurines : focus on thiopurine methyltransferase

open access: yes, 2005
Pharmacogenetics represents the study ofvariability in drug response due to genetic variations. The thiopurines (6-mercaptopurine, 6-thioguanine and azathioprine) are prodrugs which require metabolic transformation to exert effect. Thiopurines are used in inflammatory bowel disease, as maintenance treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia ...

Thiopurine S-methyltransferase – An important intersection of drug-drug interactions in thiopurine treatment

open access: yesBiomedicine & Pharmacotherapy
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of medicines is crucial for developing novel drugs, for repurposing existing medicines, and for predicting toxicities. Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) serves as an exemplary case in personalized medicine, as its activity is influenced by genetic variants, co-factors, substrates, and inhibitors, which lead to

[Optimising azathioprine treatment: determination of thiopurine methyltransferase activity and thiopurine metabolites].

open access: yesAnales de pediatria (Barcelona, Spain : 2003), 2009
Individualised doses of azathioprine (AZA) may be prescribed by monitoring the levels of the enzyme thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT). The measurements of thiopurine metabolites of AZA, 6-thioguanine (6-TGN) and 6-methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP), have also been reported as new markers of AZA activity.To describe TPMT phenotype in our population and to ...
