Genetic polymorphism of thiopurine S-methyltransferase in Argentina [PDF]
Background: Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) catalyses the S-methylation of 6-thiopurine drugs, which are commonly used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases, leukaemia and organ transplantation. TPMT activity is polymorphic as a result of gene mutations.

Thiopurine methyltransferase in acute lymphoblastic leukemia [PDF]
We recently reported that specific genetic polymorphisms, particularly polymorphisms in thymidylate synthase (TYMS) and glutathione S -transferase M1 (GSTM1) predicted the risk of relapse among children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).[1][1] An accompanying commentary noted surprise that ...

gene variants and thiopurine-induced leukopenia in patients with inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
Thiopurine has been used to maintain remission and to reduce antidrug antibody formation in monoclonal antibody therapy in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The use of thiopurine is limited by side effects such as leukopenia.

The fate of thiopurine metabolites after switching to low-dose thiopurine with allopurinol or thioguanine in IBD patients: A retrospective analysis. [PDF]
Aims Shunting (hypermethylating) thiopurine metabolism, characterized by excessive 6‐MMPR production and (sub)therapeutic 6‐TGN levels, poses a significant challenge in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This study evaluates the metabolic outcomes of switching to low‐dose thiopurine with allopurinol (LDTA) or thioguanine (TG) in IBD ...

Association between thiopurine S-methyltransferase polymorphisms and thiopurine-induced adverse drug reactions in patients with inflammatory bowel disease: a meta-analysis. [PDF]
Thiopurine drugs are well established treatments in the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but their use is limited by significant adverse drug reactions (ADRs).
