The purine path to chemotherapy.

G B Elion1.   

Abstract

Research on antimetabolites of nucleic acid purines led to drugs for the treatment of acute leukemia (6-mercaptopurine and thioguanine), gout and hyperuricemia (allopurinol), and herpesvirus infections (acyclovir), and for the prevention of organ transplant rejection (azathioprine).
