Review Article: The Impact of the Gut Microbiome on Ulcerative Colitis Pharmacotherapy
The gut microbiome modulates ulcerative colitis pharmacotherapy through microbial drug metabolism, immune regulation and altered drug bioavailability. Microbial composition influences response to aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics and small molecules, while microbiome‐targeted therapies show emerging promise.

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Upadacitinib, a selective Janus kinase 1 inhibitor, is approved to treat moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). This post hoc subanalysis evaluated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of upadacitinib in patients in East Asia. Methods U‐ACHIEVE (UC1; NCT02819635) and U‐ACCOMPLISH (UC2; NCT03653026) were

Optimising use of thiopurines in inflammatory bowel disease
Introduction: Thiopurines are central to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) therapeutics, either as monotherapy or in combination with newer biologic therapies, however it is only recently that focus has increased on improving effectiveness and ...

Thiopurines Induce Oxidative Stress in T-Lymphocytes: A Proteomic Approach
Thiopurines are extensively used immunosuppressants for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The polymorphism of thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) influences thiopurine metabolism and therapy outcome. We used a TPMT knockdown (kd) model

The standard therapy for some autoimmune diseases consists of a combination of corticosteroids and thiopurines. In non-responders to thiopurine drugs, the measurement of the metabolites of azathioprine, 6-thioguanine, and 6-methylmercaptopurine, can be a

Microbial metabolism of thiopurines: a method to measure thioguanine nucleotides
Thiopurines are anti-inflammatory prodrugs. We hypothesised that bacteria may contribute to conversion to active drug. Escherichia coli strain DH5α was evaluated to determine whether it could metabolise the thiopurine drugs, thioguanine or mercaptopurine,
