Abstract

Mizoribine induces the differentiation of promyelocytes by an unknown mechanism that relies on compromised guanine nucleotide synthesis. I have found that mizoribine also perturbs adenosine nucleotide levels in HL-60 promyelocytes, particularly ATP. To reconcile these observations with the known actions of mizoribine I have adapted an existing model of human purine metabolism composed as an S-system familiar from Biochemical Systems Theory. Mizoribine's actions were then simulated and compared with experimental data.
