What is Mycophenolate Sodium ![](https://tecoland.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Mycophenolate-Sodium-300x208.png)
Mycophenolate Sodium is the sodium salt form of mycophenolic acid (MPA), with immunosuppressing activity. In vivo, the active molecule MPA reversibly inhibits inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) which is needed for guanine monophosphate synthesis and stops the proliferation of B and T lymphocytes. Relative to other cell types, lypmocytes are highly dependent on salvage and de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides, thus making these cells prone to MPA cytotoxicity.
Mycophenolate sodium is an organic sodium salt that is the sodium salt of mycophenolic acid. An immunosuppressant, it is widely used to prevent tissue rejection following organ transplants and for the treatment of certain autoimmune diseases. It has a role as an EC 1.1.1.205 (IMP dehydrogenase) inhibitor and an immunosuppressive agent. It contains a mycophenolate.
Compound derived from Penicillium stoloniferum and related species. It blocks de novo biosynthesis of purine nucleotides by inhibition of the enzyme inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMP DEHYDROGENASE). Mycophenolic acid exerts selective effects on the immune system in which it prevents the proliferation of T-CELLS, LYMPHOCYTES, and the formation of antibodies from B-CELLS. It may also inhibit recruitment of LEUKOCYTES to sites of INFLAMMATION.
