Measurements of 6-thioguanine nucleotide levels with TPMT and NUDT15 genotyping in patients with Crohn’s disease
The association between the 6-thioguanine nucleotide (6-TGN) level and clinical remission in Crohn's disease (CD) remains controversial. Thiopurine-induced leukopenia is a life-threatening complication of CD in Asians that was recently shown to strongly correlate with NUDT15 genetic variants. This study aimed to determine the relationship between thiopurine metabolite levels and therapeutic res...
متن کاملNUDT15, FTO, and RUNX1 genetic variants and thiopurine intolerance among Japanese patients with inflammatory bowel diseases
BACKGROUND/AIMS Recent genome-wide analyses have provided strong evidence concerning adverse events caused by thiopurine drugs such as azathioprine (AZA) and 6-mercaptopurine. The strong associations identified between NUDT15 p.Arg139Cys and thiopurine-induced leukopenia and severe hair loss have been studied and confirmed over the last 2 years. However, other coding variants, including NUDT15 ...
متن کاملInfluence of NUDT15 variants on hematological pictures of patients with inflammatory bowel disease treated with thiopurines
AIM The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) c.415C>T in exon 3 of NUDT15 affects thiopurine-induced leukopenia in Asian patients with Crohn's disease. Meanwhile, three additional genetic variants of NUDT15 were reported in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We evaluated the effects of these additional genetic variants of NUDT15 in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treated...
متن کاملA Natural Genetic Variant of Granzyme B Confers Lethality to a Common Viral Infection
Many immune response genes are highly polymorphic, consistent with the selective pressure imposed by pathogens over evolutionary time, and the need to balance infection control with the risk of auto-immunity. Epidemiological and genomic studies have identified many genetic variants that confer susceptibility or resistance to pathogenic micro-organisms. While extensive polymorphism has been repo...
متن کاملSpecies difference in susceptibility to phorbol myristate acetate-induced leukopenia and lung injury: rat vs. dog.
Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) was administered intravenously in a single dose to rats (400 micrograms/kg) and in a single and repeated doses to dogs (40 micrograms/kg). Severe leukopenia was observed in both species. The leukopenia in rats was due to a decreased number of both lymphocytes and neutrophils while the leukopenia in dogs was mainly due to a decreased number of neutrophils. The rat...
