azathioprine and Diabetic Nephropathies

azathioprine has been researched along with Diabetic Nephropathies in 51 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.

Diabetic Nephropathies: KIDNEY injuries associated with diabetes mellitus and affecting KIDNEY GLOMERULUS; ARTERIOLES; KIDNEY TUBULES; and the interstitium. Clinical signs include persistent PROTEINURIA, from microalbuminuria progressing to ALBUMINURIA of greater than 300 mg/24 h, leading to reduced GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE and END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" In summary, mycophenolate mofetil is superior to azathioprine in maintaining remission and preventing relapse in lupus nephritis."3.78[Nephrology]. ( Martin, PY; Saudan, P, 2012)
" We describe a patient suffering from pancytopenia following a combination therapy of azathioprine and allopurinol because of lupus erythematodes and diabetic nephropathy with hyperuricemia."3.72[Panzytopenia from combination therapy with azathioprin and allopurinol]. ( Seidel, W, 2004)
" In the CsA group, 71% required either a significant reduction in CsA dosage with the addition of azathioprine or a complete switch to azathioprine, mainly because of CsA-associated nephrotoxicity."2.66A randomized trial comparing cyclosporine with antilymphoblast-globulin-azathioprine for renal allograft recipients. Results at 2 1/2-6 years. ( Ascher, NL; Canafax, DM; Flick, B; Fryd, DS; Johnson, CP; Najarian, JS; Payne, WD; Simmons, RL; Sutherland, DE, 1988)
"Delayed graft function was observed in 34."1.38Outcome of deceased donor renal transplantation in diabetic nephropathy: a single-center experience from a developing country. ( Engineer, DP; Godara, SM; Gumber, MR; Jain, SH; Kute, VB; Modi, PR; Munjappa, BC; Patel, HV; Sainaresh, VV; Shah, PR; Shah, VR; Trivedi, HL; Vanikar, AV, 2012)
"In juvenile diabetics with diabetic nephropathy transplantation of the pancreas at the time of renal transplantation is thought to improve the progression of diabetic complications."1.26[Transplantation of pancreas and kidney in diabetic nephropathy (author's transl)]. ( Baumgartner, D; Binswanger, U; Largiadèr, F; Uhlschmid, G, 1982)
"The requirement for insulin decreased in both patients during the period of renal insufficiency and increased following transplantation; this seemed to be related to the large dose of steroids given because now that a maintenance level of steroids has been established, both patients require the same dosage of insulin as they did before the onset of renal insufficiency."1.25Treatment of renal failure from diabetic nephropathy with cadaveric homograft. ( Beaudry, C; Laplate, L, 1973)
