198821-22-6COc1cc(NC(=O)Nc2cccc(CNC(=O)O[C@H]3CCOC3)c2)ccc1-c1cnco1JBPUGFODGPKTDW-SFHVURJKSA-NMerimepodib (VX-497) is a novel noncompetitive inhibitor of IMPDH. Merimepodib is orally bioavailable and inhibits the proliferation of primary human, mouse, rat, and dog lymphocytes at concentrations of approximately 100 nM.
Merimepodib, an oral drug, contains a novel inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), an enzyme responsible for stimulating the production of lymphocytes. Merimepodib has the potential to exert direct antiviral activity, as well as affect the immune response by acting on lymphocyte migration and proliferation. Consequently, merimepodib may be an effective treatment for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, as the disease involves both viral proliferation and liver inflammation.
개요Merimepodib is an inhibitor of inosine-5''-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH; Kis = 7 and 10 nM for IMPDH type I and type II, respectively) with antiviral and immunosuppressant activities. It reduces Ebola, Lassa, chikungunya, Junin, and Zika virus titers in vitro and inhibits Zika virus replication in Huh7 cells (EC50 = 0.6 μM). Merimepodib inhibits the proliferation of PHA-stimulated T cells and SPAS-stimulated B cells (IC50s = 104 and 132 nM, respectively), effects that can be reversed by guanosine but not adenosine . In vivo, merimepodib (50 and 100 mg/kg) increases allograft survival in a murine skin transplantation model and prevents development of graft versus host disease (GVHD) in splenocyte allografted mice.
용도Inhibition of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), which has potential antiviral, antiproliferative, antiparasitic, and immunosuppressive activity.
