Mycophenolic acid β-D-glucuronide (MPAG) is the primary metabolite of the antibiotic mycophenolic acid, a potent inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase.{21841} Inhibition of this enzyme blocks de novo GTP generation as well as RNA and DNA synthesis in lymphocytes, thus preventing lymphocyte proliferation and activation.{21841} Mycophenolic acid, typically used in clinical settings as a chemotherapeutic or immunosuppressant agent, is rapidly conjugated on adsorption and circulates mostly in the form of its glucuronide conjugate.{21841,21839,21840} At 6 mg/mouse/day, MPAG has been reported to show significant antitumor activity against Ehrlich solid tumors.{30690} This glucuronide is typically used as an internal standard for therapeutic drug monitoring analyses of serum or whole blood by HPLC or LC-MS to confirm that patients remain within the drug’s therapeutic range.{30691}

    (R)-Roscovitine – 5 mg

    Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell cycle progression and are therefore promising targets for cancer therapy. (R)-Roscovitine is a potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM.{14988} It also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H, Cdk5/p35, and cell division cycle (cdc)/cyclin B with IC50 values of 0.49, 0.16, and 0.65 µM, respectively.{14987,14988,14991} (R)-Roscovitine inhibits the growth of rapidly proliferating cells with an average IC50 value of 15.2 µM against a panel of 19 human tumor cell lines.{14988} In murine models of polycystic kidney disease, (R)-roscovitine effectively inhibited disease progression at doses of 50-100 mg/kg.{14564}
