Description

Azathioprine belongs to the group of immunosuppressant drugs that suppress the immune system by inhibiting the production of white blood cells (leukocytes). It is used to treat inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and Crohn's disease. Azathioprine is metabolized in the liver. Additionally, this drug inhibits DNA synthesis by binding to nuclear DNA, preventing RNA transcription and protein synthesis in susceptible cells.

Azathioprine is part of our Bio-X ™ Range. These products are aimed at life science researchers who need high quality ready-to-use products for assay development, screening or other R&D work. With a solubility datasheet and convenient vials, all of our Bio-X ™ products are in stock across our global warehouses for rapid delivery and ease of use.
