Description

Application

Allopurinol has been used:

• to decrease the uric acid levels and study its effect on renal injury and inflammation in mice[1]
• as a xanthine oxidase inhibitor to test panton-valentine leukocidin (PVL) neutrophil extracellular traps (NETosis) dependence on different enzymes, channels, or organelles using human polymorphonuclear cells (hPMNs)[2]
• as a reference standard to study the inhibitory effect of olive leaf components on xanthine oxidase in vitro[3]

Allopurinol is suitable for:

• intravenous injection in mice for inhibition of xanthine oxidase[4][5]
• use as an inhibitor of xanthine oxidase[6]
• use as a positive control in xanthine oxidase inhibition assay[7]
• use in the preparation of University of Wisconsin solution for osmotic stabilization to enhance the density differences between islets and acinar fragments during porcine islet purification[8]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Allopurinol is a purine analog that inhibits certain enzymes involved in purine metabolism.[3] It is known to reduce the synthesis of uric acid in the body. Allopurinol mediated inhibition of xanthine oxidase exhibits anti-inflammatory effects on atherosclerosis, acute lung injury, and congestive heart failure.[1]

Inhibitor of xanthine oxidase and de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis. A classical agent in treatment of hyperuricemia and gout.
