ChEBI IDCHEBI:8764
ChEBI Namemycophenolate mofetil
Stars
DefinitionA carboxylic ester resulting from the formal condensation between the carboxylic acid group of mycophenolic acid and the hydroxy group of 2-(morpholin-4-yl)ethanol. In the liver, it is metabolised to mycophenolic acid, an immunosuppressant for which it is a prodrug. It is widely used to prevent tissue rejection following organ transplants as well as for the treatment of certain autoimmune diseases.

Roles Classification
Chemical Role:
Bronsted base  A molecular entity capable of accepting a hydron from a donor (Brønsted acid).
Biological Roles:
anticoronaviral agent  Any antiviral agent which inhibits the activity of coronaviruses.
anti-HIV agent  An antiviral agent that destroys or inhibits the replication of the human immunodeficiency virus.
antiviral agent  A substance that destroys or inhibits replication of viruses.
immunosuppressive agent  An agent that suppresses immune function by one of several mechanisms of action. Classical cytotoxic immunosuppressants act by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Others may act through activation of T-cells or by inhibiting the activation of helper cells. In addition, an immunosuppressive agent is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to diminish the extent and/or voracity of an immune response.
EC 1.1.1.205 (IMP dehydrogenase) inhibitor  An EC 1.1.1.* (oxidoreductase acting on donor CH-OH group, NAD+ or NADP+ acceptor) inhibitor that interferes with the action of IMP dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.205), so blocking de novo biosynthesis of purine nucleotides.
antithyroid drug  A drug used to treat hyperthyroidism by reducing the excessive production of thyroid hormones.
Applications:
gout suppressant  A drug that increases uric acid excretion by the kidney (uricosuric drug), decreases uric acid production (antihyperuricemic), or alleviates the pain and inflammation of acute attacks of gout.
antihypertensive agent  Any drug used in the treatment of acute or chronic vascular hypertension regardless of pharmacological mechanism.
nephroprotective agent  Any protective agent that is able to prevent damage to the kidney.
antirheumatic drug  A drug used to treat rheumatoid arthritis.
antifibrotic agent  Any agent which acts to reduce fibrosis.
antipsoriatic  A drug used to treat psoriasis.
cardiovascular drug  A drug that affects the rate or intensity of cardiac contraction, blood vessel diameter or blood volume.
anti-anaemic agent  A compound which increases either the number of red cells or the amount of haemoglobin in the blood.
antineoplastic agent  A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
hypoglycemic agent  A drug which lowers the blood glucose level.
anti-inflammatory agent  Any compound that has anti-inflammatory effects.
renoprotective agent  Any compound that is able to prevent damage to the kidneys.
prodrug  A compound that, on administration, must undergo chemical conversion by metabolic processes before becoming the pharmacologically active drug for which it is a prodrug.
immunosuppressive agent  An agent that suppresses immune function by one of several mechanisms of action. Classical cytotoxic immunosuppressants act by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Others may act through activation of T-cells or by inhibiting the activation of helper cells. In addition, an immunosuppressive agent is a role played by a compound which is exhibited by a capability to diminish the extent and/or voracity of an immune response.
ophthalmology drug  Any compound used for the treatment of eye conditions or eye diseases.
antithyroid drug  A drug used to treat hyperthyroidism by reducing the excessive production of thyroid hormones.
