Azathioprine mechanism of action ibd. 100 2305 pmol mg dna cuffari 1996. Like other immunosuppressants it suppresses the proliferation of t and b lymphocytes types of white blood cells that are part of the immune system and defend the body against both infectious diseases and foreign materials. The exact mechanism of action of azathioprine is not known.
Azathioprine and mercaptopurine are used as steroid sparing immune modulatory agents and can be used in the treatment of ibd. Mechanism of action azathioprine inhibits purine synthesis. Chronic refractory thrombocytopenic purpura off label 1 2 mg kg po once daily to maximum daily dose of 150 mg for at least 3 6 months before typical response is observed.
In ibd the immune system is attacking the digestive system which results in inflammation. Mechanism of action azathioprine is a purine analog that converts to its active metabolites mercaptopurine 6 mp and thioguanine 6 tgn by hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase hprt and thiopurine methyltransferase tpmt enzymes then inhibits purine synthesis. This means that azathioprine works to reduce the activity of your immune system.
Purines are needed to produce dna and rna. Azathioprine may cause a rare type of lymphoma cancer of the liver spleen and bone marrow that can be fatal. Azathioprine is a pro drug and enzymatically converted into mercaptopurine and then metabolised to the active.
This has occurred mainly in teenagers and young men with crohn s disease or ulcerative colitis. Azathioprine is part of a group of medications known as thiopurines which are immunosuppressants. Azathioprine 5 µmol 6 mp 0 10 20 30 40 50 0 5 5 azathioprine 5 µmol 6 mp dose dependent effects of azathioprine 6 tg levels.
By inhibiting purine synthesis less dna and rna are produced for the synthesis of white blood cells thus causing immunosuppression. Azathioprine reduces the number of white blood cells in the body the immune system relies on these white blood cells and by reducing them it interrupts the immune system s function. Azathioprine also may integrate into nucleic acids resulting in chromosome breakage nucleic acid malfunction or the synthesis of faulty proteins.
31 5 168 pmol mg dna levels in ibd patients under long term therapy.
