Part Descriptions
LP15173-5 Mercaptopurine
6-Mercaptopurine (6-MP) is used in treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. The effects of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) are mediated via its intracellular conversion (RBC) to 6-thioguanine (6-TG) and 6-methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP) nucleotide metabolites, the latter genetically controlled by thipurine methyltransferase (TPMT). This assay measures level of 6-MMP which has been shown to correlate with therapeutic response and potential toxicities.
