Application
6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPR) has been used as a phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate amidotransferase inhibitor to study its effects on DNA replication in a retinoblastoma (Rb) phosphorylation-independent manner in human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) , as a purine analog to determine its effects on angiogenesis of endothelial cells induced by fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) in vitro and in vivo, as a metabolite of 6-methylmercaptopurine to determine its levels in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method .
6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPr) is used in studies on thiopurine metabolism by enzymes such as inosine-5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase and thiopurine methyltransferase. 6MMPr may also be used to study mechanisms of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) inhibition.
Biochem/physiol Actions
6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPR) is a modified thiopurine nucleoside involved in the inhibition of purine synthesis. It exhibits anti-viral effects against various viruses. 6MMPR is an analog of purine and an inhibitor of nerve growth factor-activated protein kinase N.

Corticosteroids alone or in conjunction with azathioprine (AZA) is the standard treatment in autoimmune hepatitis (AiH). Individual variations in thiopurine (TP) metabolism may affect both drug efficacy and toxicity. Our aim was to investigate the utility of thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT)

Mercaptopurines have been used as anticancer agents for more than 40 years, and most acute lymphoblastic leukemias are treated with 6-mercaptopurine (6MP) or 6-thioguanine (TG). Overexpression of the two related multidrug resistance proteins MRP4 and MRP5 has been shown to

Many viruses within the Flavivirus genus cause significant disease in humans; however, effective antivirals against these viruses are not currently available. We have previously shown that a thiopurine drug, 6-methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPr), inhibits replication of distantly related viruses within the
