D007945	Leukemia, Lymphoid	Leukemia associated with HYPERPLASIA of the lymphoid tissues and increased numbers of circulating malignant LYMPHOCYTES and lymphoblasts.	Leukemia, Lymphocytic,Lymphocytic Leukemia,Lymphoid Leukemia,Leukemias, Lymphocytic,Leukemias, Lymphoid,Lymphocytic Leukemias,Lymphoid Leukemias
D008727	Methotrexate	An antineoplastic antimetabolite with immunosuppressant properties. It is an inhibitor of TETRAHYDROFOLATE DEHYDROGENASE and prevents the formation of tetrahydrofolate, necessary for synthesis of thymidylate, an essential component of DNA.

D001921	Brain	The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM.	Encephalon
D002648	Child	A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL.	Children
D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D001708	Biopterins	Pterin derivatives based on 2-amino-6-(1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-4(1H)-pteridinone. Biopterins are natural products that have been considered as growth factors for some insects. Biopterins are cofactors for the AROMATIC AMINO ACID hydroxylases and NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE. Deficiencies in BIOPTERINS metabolism (e.g., lowered TETRAHYDROBIOPTERIN) are associated with neurological deterioration (e.g., HYPERPHENYLALANINAEMIA).	2-Amino-6-((1S,2R)-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-4(1H)-pteridinone,2-Amino-6-((1S,2S)-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-4(1H)-pteridinone,2-Amino-6-(1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-4(8H)-pteridinone,2-amino-6-((1R,2R)-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-4(3H)-pteridinone,4(1H)-Pteridinone, 2-amino-6-(1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-, (S-(R,S))-,6-Biopterin,Biopterin,D-threo-Biopterin,L-Biopterin,L-erythro-Biopterin,L-threo-Biopterin,2-Amino-6-(1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-4(1H)-pteridinone,Dictyopterin,Orinapterin,6 Biopterin,D threo Biopterin,L Biopterin,L erythro Biopterin,L threo Biopterin
