| Bioactivity | Thiamiprine (BW 57-323) is a compound related to azathioprine. Its nucleoside forms are similar to the parent compound in terms of cytotoxicity in vitro (except for the arabinoside). In the rat adjuvant arthritis model in vivo, its riboside and 2'-deoxyriboside are less active than the parent compound. The arabinoside is inactive and nontoxic. It has similar potency to the other parent compounds tested, but has a different safety profile. |
