The disease pathophysiology is extensive as the improper IMPDH regulation may lead to uncontrolled cell division and proliferation, affecting the immune system's ability to fight off pathogens and signal tumor cells to apoptose. Therapeutic studies using dinucleoside polyphosphates may allosterically regulate the inhibition of IMPDH activity. Dinucleoside polyphosphates have physiological functions including cell division, neurotransmission, apoptosis, vasoconstriction, platelet aggregation, and cellular process variety enhancement from DNA replication to repair<ref>PMID: 31416831</ref>. Selected IMPDH inhibitors composed of dinucleoside polyphosphates may be used to make IMPDHs targets for immunosuppressive, antiviral, and anticancer drugs, with antibacterial and chemotherapeutic strategies feasibility<ref>PMID: | The disease pathophysiology is extensive as the improper IMPDH regulation may lead to uncontrolled cell division and proliferation, affecting the immune system's ability to fight off pathogens and signal tumor cells to apoptose.
