Examination of the TPMT and NUDT15*3 Variants to Predict the Response to Thiopurines in an Italian Cohort of Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. [PDF]
Thiopurines are employed in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs; Crohn’s disease, CD; ulcerative colitis, UC) to induce remission, prevent relapse, and reduce the steroid dosage, although they can sometimes be ineffective and present side effects.

Variants in TPMT, ITPA, ABCC4 and ABCB1 genes as predictors of 6-mercaptopurine induced toxicity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia [PDF]
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common childhood malignancy. Optimal use of anti leukemic drugs has led to less toxicity and adverse reactions, and a higher survival rate. Thiopurine drugs, including 6-mercaptopurine, are mostly used

Higher prevalence of NUDT15 rs116855232 compared to TPMT rs1142345 in a Chinese cohort and its implications for thiopurine therapy [PDF]
BackgroundThiopurine drugs are widely used as immunosuppressants and chemotherapeutic agents in clinical practice, but their adverse effects significantly limit their clinical application. TPMT c.719A>G (rs1142345) and NUDT15 c.415C>T (rs116855232)

Frequency of thiopurine methyltransferase variants and exploratory predictors of azathioprine-induced leukopenia in Saudi patients with inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
Background: Azathioprine, a common inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatment, carries a myelosuppression risk, particularly leukopenia. Thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) genotyping can predict azathioprine-induced leukopenia (AIL), but data on TPMT ...
