7H-xanthine : An oxopurine in which the purine ring is substituted by oxo groups at positions 2 and 6 and N-7 is protonated.
9H-xanthine : An oxopurine in which the purine ring is substituted by oxo groups at positions 2 and 6 and N-9 is protonated.
Meningitis: Inflammation of the coverings of the brain and/or spinal cord, which consist of the PIA MATER; ARACHNOID; and DURA MATER. Infections (viral, bacterial, and fungal) are the most common causes of this condition, but subarachnoid hemorrhage (HEMORRHAGES, SUBARACHNOID), chemical irritation (chemical MENINGITIS), granulomatous conditions, neoplastic conditions (CARCINOMATOUS MENINGITIS), and other inflammatory conditions may produce this syndrome. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1994, Ch24, p6)

| "Compared to the controls, patients with viral meningitis exhibited high concentrations of IMP, adenosine, guanosine, adenine, guanine and xanthine; patients with bacterial meningitis exhibited high concentrations of IMP, inosine, guanosine, adenosine, hypoxanthine, xanthine and urate; and patients with tuberculous meningitis exhibited high concentrations of AMP, guanosine, xanthine and urate." | 1.29 | Concentrations of nucleotides, nucleosides, purine bases and urate in cerebrospinal fluid of children with meningitis.
