| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
An immunosuppressive. Inhibits T and B cell proliferation. Activity is attributed mainly to its metabolite, a malononitrile derivative, which is beleived to inhibit dihydroorotate dehydrogenase as well as several protein tyrosine kinases.This compound is suitable for dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) related research. | [Biological Activity]
Leflunomide-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of leflunomide by GC- or LC-MS. Leflunomide is a synthetic isoxazol and a prodrug form of A-771726 , a dihydroorotate dehydrogenase inhibitor.1 Leflunomide inhibits de novo pyrimidine synthesis to regulate T lymphocyte progression through the cell cycle. It inhibits proliferation and activation of T cells when used at concentrations of 25 and 100 μM, respectively, for na?ve and memory CD4+ T cells.2 It also reduces the production of Th1 effector cells and increases differentiation of Th2 cells in vitro and in splenocytes isolated from KLH-immunized mice. Leflunomide (35 mg/kg per day) reduces and prevents inflammation in a proteoglycan-induced mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis.3 Formulations containing leflunomide have been used in the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis. | [References]
