Aminopterin is widely utilized in research focused on:
- Cancer Treatment: It is used as a chemotherapy agent, particularly in the treatment of leukemia, where it helps inhibit cell division and growth of cancer cells.
- Autoimmune Disease Research: Aminopterin plays a role in studying autoimmune diseases by suppressing the immune response, allowing researchers to explore therapeutic options.
- Cell Culture Studies: In laboratory settings, it is employed to select for cells that are resistant to antifolates, aiding in the development of new drugs and therapies.
- Genetic Research: It is used in genetic studies to induce mutations in model organisms, providing insights into gene function and disease mechanisms.
- Pharmaceutical Development: The compound is valuable in the development of new antifolate drugs, offering a basis for creating more effective treatments with fewer side effects.
