A series of sulfasalazine analogs were synthesized and tested for their ability to block cystine-glutamate antiporter system xc⁻ using L-[(14)C]cystine as a substrate. Replacement of sulfasalazine's diazo group with an alkyne group led to an equally potent inhibitor, 2-hydroxy-5-((4-(N-pyridin-2-ylsulfamoyl)phenyl)ethynyl)benzoic acid

The in vitro susceptibility of human- and bovine-origin Mycobacterium paratuberculosis to the thioupurine drugs 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) and azathioprine (AZA) was established using conventional plate counting methods and the MGIT 960 ParaTB culture system. Both 6-MP and AZA had antibacterial activity
