Description

Mycophenolic acid sodium is a potent uncompetitive inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) inhibitor with an EC50 of 0.24 μM. Mycophenolic acid sodium demonstrates antiviral effects against a wide range of RNA viruses including influenza. Mycophenolic acid sodium is an immunosuppressive agent. Antiangiogenic and antitumor effects[1][2].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

Mycophenolic acid sodium demonstrates antiviral effects against a wide range of RNA viruses including influenza, dengue virus, Zika virus, rotavirus, CCHFV, and hantavirus[1].
IMPDH is the rate-limiting enzyme in the de novo synthesis of guanosine nucleotides[2].
Mycophenolic acid (0.01-1 μM; 72 hours) sodium exhibits preferential antiproliferative activity against the endothelial cells and fibroblasts. Endothelial cells are most sensitive cells to Mycophenolic acid treatment with an IC50 <500 nM for antimitotic effects[2].
Fibroblasts are also prone to Mycophenolic acid-induced cell cycle inhibition but exhibit a higher IC50 (<1 μM) compared with endothelial cells. The two human tumor cell lines A549 non-small cell lung cancer cells and PC3 prostate cancer cells show intermediate sensitivity with an IC50 >1 μM. U87 glioblastoma cells are resistant against Mycophenolic acid sodium treatment up to 1 μM[2].
Mycophenolic acid (0.05-2 μM; 18 hours) sodium exhibits a dose-dependent down-regulation of HDAC2 and MYC, whereas up-regulates NDRG1[2].

Cell Proliferation Assay[2]

Cell Line: Primary isolated human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMVEC) , fibroblasts, U87 glioblastoma cells, PC3 prostate cancer cells, A549 non-small cell lung cancer cells.
Concentration: 0.01, 0.1, 1 μM
Incubation Time: 72 hours
Result: Exhibited preferential antiproliferative activity against HDMVEC and fibroblasts. Whereas U87 glioblastoma cells were resistant to treatment, A549 non-small cell lung cancer and PC3 prostate cancer cells showed intermediate sensitivity.

Western Blot Analysis[2]

Cell Line: HDMVEC
Concentration: 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1, and 2 μM
Incubation Time: 18 hours
Result: Showed a dose-dependent regulation of HDAC2, MYC, and NDRG1.
In Vivo

Mycophenolic acid (120 mg/kg; oral gavage; b.i.d.) sodium exerts its antitumor effects via modulation of the tumor microenvironment, U87 tumor growth is markedly inhibited in vivo in BALB/c nude mice[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Athymic 8-week-old, 20 g BALB/c nu/nu mice bearing Mycophenolic acid-resistant human U87 tumor model[2]
Dosage: 120 mg/kg MMF (the morpholinoethyl ester prodrug of Mycophenolic acid)
Administration: Oral gavage; b.i.d.
Result: MMF (the morpholinoethyl ester prodrug of Mycophenolic acid) significantly inhibited tumor growth (∼70% after day 14 after tumor implantation) in MMF-treated versus control mice.
Microvessel density (CD31 staining) and pericyte coverage determined by α-smooth muscle actin staining were markedly reduced in MMF-treated versus control tumors (44% and 78%, respectively).

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
