GENE - CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS REPORT

RGD ID: 2503
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Nqo1
Name: NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1
Acc ID: CHEBI:2948
Term: azathioprine
Definition: 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.
Chemical ID: MESH:D001379
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
