| Additional Infomation |
6-Methylmercaptopurine nucleoside is a white powder. (NTP, 1992)
6-Methylthioinosine is a thiopurine, a derivative of inosine formed by replacing the aromatic hydroxyl group with a methylthiodiyl group. It is a purine ribonucleotide and also a thiopurine. It is an analog of inosine, with the hydroxyl group at the 6-position replaced by a methylthio group. Methylmercaptopurine nucleoside is a purine derivative with antitumor and anti-angiogenic properties. 6-Methylmercaptopurine nucleoside (6-MMPR) inhibits amide phosphoribosyltransferase (a key first step in the de novo synthesis of purines) and inhibits fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2)-induced cell proliferation. (NCI04) 6-(methylthio)-9-β-D-furanose ribosylpurine. An analog of inosine, with the hydroxyl group at the 6-position replaced by a methylthio group. 6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (CAS: 342-69-8, molecular formula C11H14N4O4S, molecular weight 298.32) is a thiopurine nucleoside analog. It is used in studies on thiopurine metabolism. It exhibits anti-viral effects. It is not in clinical trials. |

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80： Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 ：Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
