Gene Name XDH
Uniprot ID XDH_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:7498
Protein Family Xanthine dehydrogenase family
Protein Function
Key enzyme in purine degradation. Catalyzes the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine. Catalyzes the oxidation of xanthine to uric acid. Contributes to the generation of reactive oxygen species. Has also low oxidase activity towards aldehydes (in vitro).

      Mechanism Description
  • Decreased metabolism of Aminophylline caused by Febuxostat mediated inhibition of non-CYP450 enzyme

Recommended Action
      Management No dosage adjustment is necessary for theophylline when coadministered with febuxostat, but caution is advised. Because the safety of long-term exposure to 1-methylxanthine is unknown, this should be taken into consideration when deciding to use the combination.
