BACKGROUND: Azathioprine (AZA), used to treat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), is metabolized by thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT). The accumulation of individual metabolites varies because humans display genetic polymorphism for TPMT expression ...

Role of Oxidative Stress Mediated by Glutathione-S-transferase in Thiopurines' Toxic Effects [PDF]
Azathioprine (AZA), 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP), and 6-thioguanine (6-TG) are antimetabolite drugs, widely used as immunosuppressants and anticancer agents.

Direct evidence of singlet molecular oxygen [O2 (1Δg)] production from UVA excited 6‐thioguanine
6‐Thioguanine (6‐TGua) is incorporated into DNA as a purine analogue, inhibiting cell replication. Patients treated with 6‐TGua are more prone to developing skin cancer due to the photoexcitation of 6‐TGua by UVA radiation (as illustrated in the Jablonski diagram). Upon exposure to UVA, the excited 6‐TGua generates 1O2.

Genotyping of Thiopurine Methyltransferase Using Pyrosequencing
Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) metabolizes thiopurine drugs which are used in the treatment of leukemia and some autoimmune diseases. Previously, 11 mutant alleles of TPMT gene (TPMT*1S, *2, *3A, *3B, *3C, *3D, *4, *5, *6, *7, and *8) have been reported.

ABSTRACT Biomarker testing plays a critical role in precision oncology by guiding targeted therapy selection. In Australia, public reimbursement for somatic tumor biomarker tests has expanded over the past decade, yet national data on utilization patterns, equity of access, and public expenditure remain limited. We identified all cancer biomarker tests
