Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine inhibition of IMPDH may represent a novel strategy to reduce adipose tissue mass Mus musculus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
mycophenolate mofetil prodrug of mycophenolic acid, treatment of diet-induced obese mice with mycophenolate mofetil for 28 days does not affect food intake or lean body mass but reduces body fat content (by 36%), adipocyte size and number and the appearance of hepatic steatosis Mus musculus
Mycophenolic acid in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes inhibition of IMPDH with mycophenolic acid reduces intracellular GTP levels by 60% (p <0.05) and blocks adipogenesis. Co-treatment with guanosine restores GTP levels and adipogenesis Mus musculus

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Mus musculus IMPDH protein expression is transiently increased during differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Total IMPDH protein levels and activity are highest around day 3 up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function IMPDH activity is required for differentiation of preadipocytes into mature, lipid-laden adipocytes and maintenance of adipose tissue mass Mus musculus
