Western blot analysis of extracts from Hela(lane 2(20ug) , K562(lane 3(20ug) and A431(lane 4(20ug) using IMPDH2 Antibody (HY-P82346) Rabbit mAb. Proteins were transferred to a PVDF membrane and blocked with 5% non-fat milk in TBST for 2 hour at room temperature. The primary antibody (1/1000) and Loading control antibody (Beta Actin, HY-P80438, 1/10000) was used in 5% non-fat milk in TBST at 4°C overnight. Goat Anti-Mouse/Rabbit IgG-HRP Secondary Antibody (1/10000) was used for 1 hour at room temperature.

Immunocytochemistry analysis of hela cells labeling IMPDH2 Antibody (HY-P82346) at 1/50 dilution. Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 minutes at room temperature, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 10 minutes at room temperature, then blocked with QuickBlock™ Blocking Buffer for Immunol Staining for 10 min at room temperature. Cells were then incubated with IMPDH2 Antibody (HY-P82346) at 1/50 dilution in QuickBlock™ Blocking Buffer for Immunol Staining at 4 ℃. Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L(HY-P8002, Green) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control. The Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded Rat spleen tissue using IMPDH2 Antibody (YA2091). The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0) for 8 minutes. The tissues were blocked in QuickBlock for 20 minutes at room temperature, washed with ddH2O and PBS, and then probed with the primary antibody (HY-P82346, 1/100) in 4℃ overnight. The detection was performed using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

Then stained with the primary antibody at 1/50 dilution for an hour at 4℃. Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HY-P8002) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1,000 dilution for 30 minutes at 4℃. Rabbit IgG Isotype Control (HY-P80879, blue) was used as the isotype control, cells without incubation with primary antibody were used as the unlabeled control (black).
Background

Function
IMPDH2 (inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase 2) is a rate-limiting enzyme in de novo guanine nucleotide biosynthesis that catalyzes the NAD-dependent conversion of inosine monophosphate (IMP) to xanthosine monophosphate (XMP), thereby maintaining intracellular guanine nucleotide pools required for DNA synthesis, RNA synthesis, signal transduction, and cellular proliferation[1][2]. The enzyme occupies a central position in purine metabolism and directly regulates GTP availability, linking nucleotide biosynthesis to cell growth and metabolic demand[1][2]. Mechanistically, increased IMPDH2 expression is associated with proliferating cells and neoplastic tissues, where enhanced guanine nucleotide production supports tumor growth and cellular expansion[3][4]. In disease contexts, dysregulated IMPDH2 expression has been reported across multiple cancer models, and elevated IMPDH2 activity has been linked to malignant progression, therapy response, and metabolic reprogramming dependent on GTP synthesis[4][5]. Compared with the closely related isoform IMPDH1, which shares approximately 84% sequence identity and is generally considered a constitutively expressed housekeeping enzyme, IMPDH2 is preferentially upregulated during proliferation and tumorigenesis, making it the dominant isoform in many rapidly growing cells[3][6]. This isoform-specific regulation provides an important rationale for experimental targeting of IMPDH2 in cancer and immunology research[3][5]. For research applications, IMPDH inhibitors such as mycophenolic acid (MPA) suppress guanine nucleotide synthesis through direct enzyme inhibition and are widely used to investigate nucleotide metabolism, cell-cycle regulation, immune-cell activation, and IMPDH-dependent signaling pathways[7][8].
