Effects of Inosine-5'-Monophosphate Dehydrogenase (IMPDH/GuaB) Inhibitors on Borrelia burgdorferi Growth in Standard and Modified Culture Conditions

Eric L. Siegel, Connor Rich, Sanchana Saravanan, Patrick Pearson, Guang Xu, Stephen M. Rich

This study shows that IMPDH inhibitors reduce Borrelia burgdorferi growth in modified culture conditions, with 6-Chloropurine riboside being more effective than mycophenolic acid.
