Mycophenolic acid suppresses granulopoiesis by inhibition of interleukin-17 production.
Mycophenolic acid is a commonly used immunosuppressant after organ transplantation and in autoimmune diseases; however, myelosuppression is a major complication despite its largely favorable side-effect profile. Mycophenolic acid targets inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase, which is essential for T-cell proliferation. The T-cell cytokine interleukin-17 (IL-17 or IL-17A) and its receptor maintai...
متن کاملUrsolic acid suppresses interleukin-17 (IL-17) production by selectively antagonizing the function of RORgamma t protein.
Th17 cells have recently emerged as a major player in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases via the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-17, IL-17F, and IL-22. The differentiation of Th17 cells and the associated cytokine production is directly controlled by RORγt. Here we show that ursolic acid (UA), a small molecule present in herbal medicine, selectively and effectively inhibits the fu...
متن کاملThe inhibition of nucleic acid synthesis by mycophenolic acid.
1. Mycophenolic acid, an antibiotic of some antiquity that more recently has been found to have marked activity against a range of tumours in mice and rats, strongly inhibits DNA synthesis in the L strain of fibroblasts in vitro. 2. The extent of the inhibition of DNA synthesis is markedly increased by preincubation of the cells with mycophenolic acid before the addition of [(14)C]thymidine. 3....
متن کاملIMP-dehydrogenase inhibition in human lymphocytes and lymphoblasts by mycophenolic acid and mycophenolic acid glucuronide.
Inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMP-DH) activities were measured in human lymphocytes (exhibiting type I IMP-DH activity) and human lymphoblasts (exhibiting type II IMP-DH activity) in the presence of various amounts of mycophenolic acid (MPA) (0-20 mumol/L) and MPA glucuronide (MPAG) (0-200 mumol/L). Moreover, the influences of human serum albumin (HSA) and human plasma on the MPA- and...
متن کاملEffects of Phenylglyoxal and N-ethylmaleimide Concentration on Mycophenolic Acid Production by Penicillium brevi-compactum ATCC16024
Mycophenolic acid is a secondary extracellular metabolite of Penicillium strains with numerous pharmaceutical properties such as antibiotic and immunosuppressive uses. The aim of this work is the survey of the effect of phenylglyoxal and n-ethylmaleimide concentration in culture medium on mycophenolic acid production by Penicillium brevi-compactum ATCC16024 was investigated. Batch submerged fer...
