Bioactivity | 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]. |
Invitro | 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 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].
