azathioprine and Aplasia Pure Red Cell

azathioprine has been researched along with Aplasia Pure Red Cell in 30 studies

Azathioprine: An immunosuppressive agent used in combination with cyclophosphamide and hydroxychloroquine in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. According to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985), this substance has been listed as a known carcinogen. (Merck Index, 11th ed)
azathioprine : A thiopurine that is 6-mercaptopurine in which the mercapto hydrogen is replaced by a 1-methyl-4-nitroimidazol-5-yl group. It is a prodrug for mercaptopurine and is used as an immunosuppressant, prescribed for the treatment of inflammatory conditions and after organ transplantation and also for treatment of Crohn's didease and MS.

"We describe a patient with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), who developed pure red cell aplasia which responded favorably during treatment with corticosteroids."1.28Pure red cell aplasia in mixed connective tissue disease. ( Jäntti, J; Julkunen, H; Pettersson, T, 1989)
"The thymoma was removed: after the operation no improvement of her anaemic condition was observed and colony growth was very poor, although T-depleted narrow preparations showed a modest BFU-E formation in autologous serum."1.27Pure red cell aplasia and thymoma: demonstration of persisting inhibition of erythropoiesis after thymectomy and resolution after immune suppressive treatment.
