title: Effect of azathioprine on antibody formation in mice and its modification by delta-(2-amino-6-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-4-oxo-5-pyrimidinyl)-valeric acid.
abstract: The effects of azathioprine, either alone or combined with delta-(2-amino-6-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-4-oxo-5-pyrimidinyl)-valeric acid (VUFB-9777, Damvar) on serum antibody formation was studied in mice. The immunosuppressive effect of azathioprine depended on the regimen of administration. VUFB-9777 alone produced no immunosuppressive effect but markedly enhanced that of azathioprine.
