6-methylmercaptopurine-induced leukocytopenia during thiopurine therapy in inflammatory bowel disease patients

J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2017 Jun;32(6):1183-1190.PMID:27859568DOI:10.1111/jgh.13656.

Background and aim: Thiopurines have a favorable benefit-risk ratio in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. A feared adverse event of thiopurine therapy is myelotoxicity, mostly occurring due to toxic concentrations of the pharmacologically active metabolites 6-thioguaninenucleotides. In oncology, myelosuppression has also been associated with elevated 6-Methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP). In this case series, we provide a detailed overview of 6-MMP-induced myelotoxicity in inflammatory bowel disease patients. Methods: We retrospectively scrutinized pharmacological laboratory databases of five participating centers over a 5-year period. Patients with leukocytopenia at time of elevated 6-MMP levels (>5700 pmol/8 × 108 red blood cells) were included for detailed chart review. Results: In this case series, we describe demographic, clinical, and pharmacological aspects of 24 cases of 6-MMP-induced myelotoxicity on weight-based thiopurine therapy with a median steady-state 6-MMP level of 14 500 pmol/8 × 108 red blood cells (range 6600-48 000). All patients developed leukocytopenia (white blood cell count 2.7 ± 0.9 × 109 /L) after a median period of 11 weeks after initiation of thiopurine therapy (interquartile range 6-46 weeks). Eighteen patients (75%) developed concurrent anemia (median hemoglobin concentration 6.9 × 109 /L), and four patients developed concurrent thrombocytopenia (median platelet count 104 × 109 /L). Leukocytopenia resolved in 20 patients (83%) within 4 weeks upon altered thiopurine treatment regimen, and white blood cell count was increasing, but not yet normalized, in the remaining four patients. Conclusion: We observed that thiopurine-induced myelotoxicity also occurs because of (extremely) high 6-MMP concentrations in patients with a skewed thiopurine metabolism. Continued treatment with adapted thiopurine therapy was successful in almost all patients.

Evaluation of the maternal and developmental toxicity of 6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside in rats

Reprod Toxicol 2022 Aug;111:158-165.PMID:35662571DOI:10.1016/j.reprotox.2022.05.015.

Thiopurine prodrugs (azathioprine, AZA, and 6-mercaptopurine, 6MP) are embryotoxic to rodents and rabbits. Little is known about the developmental toxicity of 6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPr), a thiopurine drug metabolite that is thought to mediate its liver toxicity. A limb bud assay found that 6MMPr impairs the in vitro morphogenetic differentiation of mouse limb extremities, being more potent than 6MP in the assay. This study evaluated the embryotoxicity of 6MMPr (0, 7.5, 15, 30 mg/kg bw sc) in rats after single-dose exposure in mid organogenesis (GD10). One group of pregnant rats was similarly treated with 6MP (15 mg/kg bw sc). After C-section (GD21), fetuses were weighed, and examined for external abnormalities. One third of each litter was examined for soft-tissue abnormalities while the remaining fetuses were cleared and stained for skeleton evaluation. 6MMPr caused a dose-dependent maternal weight loss followed by recovery before term pregnancy. Except for a nonsignificant increase in embryolethality and slight reduction in fetal weight at 30 mg/kg bw, no indication of embryotoxicity was noted at this dose or at lower doses of 6MMPr. In contrast, 6MP led to nearly 98 % of post-implantation losses in the presence of slight-to-mild maternal toxicity. These results are consistent with the notion that maternal treatment with 6MMPr affects embryo development, causing a nonsignificant increase in embryolethality and a slight reduction in fetal weight at 30 mg/kg bw. However, there was no increase in abnormalities at this dose, which was severely toxic to the dams, as reflected in the maternal weight gain data.

Determination of 6-thioguanine and 6-Methylmercaptopurine in dried blood spots using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry: Method development, validation and clinical application

Clin Chim Acta 2019 Dec;499:24-33.PMID:31449774DOI:10.1016/j.cca.2019.08.024.

Background: Therapeutic drug monitoring of azathioprine metabolites is required for pharmacotherapy individualisation in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Currently mainly hemolysates are used, requiring long sample preparation and showing limited analytes stability. Therefore, a quantitative LC-MS/MS method for determination of 6-thioguanine (6-TG) and 6-Methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP) in dried blood spot samples (DBS) was developed. Methods: Analysis involves liquid extraction from 30 μL blood spot, hydrolysis and quantification with LC-MS/MS. Results: Method met the validation criteria in terms of selectivity, linearity, accuracy, and precision in a range from 50 to 5300 pmol/8 × 108 Ery for 6-TG and from 260 to 5300 pmol/8 × 108 Ery for 6-MMP. Range can be increased to 8000 pmol/8 × 108 Ery. No matrix effect was observed and the recovery was >80%. DBS specific validation parameters were confirmed: spot homogeneity, no influence of blood spot volume (>30 μL) on 6 mm DBS disk, and absence of haematocrit effect. DBS samples were stable for at least one month at temperatures from -20 to 40 °C. Clinical validation confirmed that DBS method and routine clinical method with hemolysate samples give comparable results and enable similar clinical decisions. Conclusions: The newly developed DBS method is simple and presents an alternative to conventional methods for therapeutic drug monitoring of azathioprine metabolites.

6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside is a potent and selective inhibitor of nerve growth factor-activated protein kinase N

J Neurochem 1992 Feb;58(2):700-8.PMID:1309569DOI:10.1111/j.1471-4159.1992.tb09774.x.

Protein kinase N (PKN) is a soluble, apparently novel serine protein kinase that is activated by nerve growth factor (NGF) and other agents in PC12 pheochromocytoma cells as well as in several nonneuronal cell lines. Purine analogs, such as 6-thioguanine and 2-aminopurine, have been found to inhibit PKN in vitro. When applied to intact cells, these compounds suppress certain biological responses to NGF, but not others, a findings suggesting the presence of multiple pathways in the NGF mechanism. We report here that 6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6-MMPR) inhibits NGF-stimulated PKN activity in vitro with an apparent Ki of approximately 5 nM. This is approximately 1,000-fold lower than the Ki of the most potent purine inhibitor of PKN. Compounds similar to 6-MMPR, but lacking the methyl or riboside groups, were much less potent as PKN inhibitors. A survey of six additional purified protein kinases shows no inhibitory effect of 6-MMPR, thus indicating a good degree of specificity of this compound for PKN. In contrast to NGF-stimulated PKN, a PKN-like activity stimulated in PC12 cells in response to activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was nearly insensitive to 6-MMPR. Application of 6-MMPR to intact PC12 cells resulted in blockade of several responses to NGF (neurite regeneration and ornithine decarboxylase induction) but not of several others (rapid enhancement of tyrosine hydroxylase phosphorylation and PKN activation). These findings suggest that 6-MMPR is a potent and selective agent for characterizing PKN in vitro and for assessing its potential role in the multiple pathways of the NGF mechanism of action.

Determination of 6-thioguanine and 6-Methylmercaptopurine metabolites in renal transplantation recipients and patients with glomerulonephritis treated with azathioprine

Ther Drug Monit 1999 Apr;21(2):231-7.PMID:10217345DOI:10.1097/00007691-199904000-00015.

The metabolism of azathioprine (AZA) was studied by monitoring the concentrations of red blood cell (RBC) 6-thioguanine nucleotides (6-TGN) and of 6-Methylmercaptopurine metabolites (6-mMP) in 27 renal transplantation recipients and in 10 patient subjects with glomerulonephritis (GN). Concentrations of 6-TGNs and 6-mMP metabolites were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Six patients from the group of renal transplantation recipients were also administered allopurinol. Median values of RBC 6-TGN and of 6-mMP metabolites concentrations in 21 renal transplantation recipients (without allopurinol) were 122 pmol/8x10(8) RBCs (range, <60-298) and 280 pmol/8x10(8) RBC (range, <150-1330), respectively; there was no correlation between concentrations of 6-TGN and of 6-mMP metabolites. The group of 21 renal transplantation recipients received different AZA doses (100 or 50 mg/d) related to clinical symptoms of AZA intolerance. The median values of 6-TGN concentrations in these subgroups were 131 and 122 pmol/8x10(8) RBCs and were not significantly different. Median values of 6-TGN concentrations in patients given allopurinol were significantly higher, despite AZA dose reduction, compared with the group without allopurinol and were equal to 363 and 122 pmol/8x10(8) RBC, p < 0.004, respectively. No significant differences were found between the concentrations of 6-mMP metabolites in either group. In the group of renal transplantation recipients, a significant correlation between white blood cell (WBC) count and 6-TGN concentration was established (r(s) = -0.59, p < 0.005). In the group of GN patients, the median values of 6-TGN and of 6-mMP metabolites concentrations were 108 pmol/8x10(8) RBCs (range, 0-297) and 420 pmol/8x10(8) RBC (range, 0-1440), respectively. There were no significant correlations between either the WBC count and 6-TGN concentrations or between 6-TGN concentrations and 6-mMP metabolites. We expect the results of our study to provide indications for better individualization of AZA therapy.
