The IMP dehydrogenase inhibitor mycophenolic acid antagonizes the CTP synthetase inhibitor 3-deazauridine in MOLT-3 human leukemia cells: a central role for phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate.

Mycophenolic acid, an inhibitor of the enzyme IMP dehydrogenase, antagonizes the CTP synthetase inhibitor 3-deazauridine in its anti-proliferative effects on MOLT-3 human T leukemia cells. No depletion of CTP occurred, and decreased amounts of 3-deazuridine-triphosphate were measured in cells incubated with mycophenolic acid and 3-deazuridine. Most probably, these phenomena are related to the increased amounts of PRPP observed, which can result in an increased pyrimidine biosynthesis de novo and, as a consequence, a decreased metabolism of 3-deazauridine via the salvage pathway.[1]
