Chemical name
Cylindrospermopsine
Description

Tricyclic alkaloid hepatotoxin from a cyanobacterium.

Cylindrospermopsin (abbreviated to CYN, or CYL) is a cyanotoxin produced by a variety of freshwater cyanobacteria. CYL is a polycyclic uracil derivative containing guanidino and sulfate groups. It is also zwitterionic, making it highly water soluble. CYL is toxic to liver and kidney tissue and is thought to inhibit protein synthesis and to covalently modify DNA and/or RNA.

It is not known whether cylindrospermopsin is a carcinogen, but it appears to have no tumour initiating activity in mice. (source: T3DB )

Fidaxomicin is a narrow spectrum macrocyclic antibiotic, sourced from actinomycete Dactylosporangium aurantiacum. Fidaxomicin is non-systemic, meaning it is minimally absorbed into the bloodstream. This anti-bacterial agent  selectively acts against pathogenic Clostridium difficile bacteria which may infect the colon, while causing minimal damage to the natural intestinal microbial flora.

Thiostrepton is used as a reagent for both positive and negative selection of genes involved in nucleotide metabolism. Thiostrepton is highly active against gram-positive bacteria. In its crude form, Thiostrepton is used in veterinary medicine, in mastitis caused by gram-negative organisms and in dermatologic disorders. inhibits bacterial protein synthesis. Inhibits mRNA-tRNA translocation by GTPase elongation factor G (EF-G), EF-TU(GTP)-catalyzed aa-tRNA delivery and the activity of initiation factor 2 (IF-2).

As an antitumoragent Thiostrepton induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in breast cancer cells via downregulation of FOXM1 expression. Thiostrepton is a FoxM1 specific inhibitor.

Applications

Leptomycin B is an important tool in the study of nuclear export. Leptomycin B is twice as potent as Leptomycin A Leptomycin B (LPB) was originally discovered as a potent anti-fungal antibiotic from Streptomyces sp. However, recent data (2003) showed that Leptomycin causes G1 cell cycle arrest in mammalian cells and is a potent anti-tumor agent against murine experimental tumors. Leptomycin B is a potent and specific nuclear export inhibitor. Leptomycin B alkylates and inhibits CRM1 (chromosomal region maintenance)/exportin 1, a protein required for nuclear export of proteins containing a nuclear export sequence (NES). In addition to antifungal and antibacterial activities, Leptomycin B blocks the cell cycle and is a potent anti-tumor agent. At low nM concentrations, Leptomycin B blocks the nuclear export of many proteins including HIV-1 Rev, MAPK/ERK, and NF-κB/IκB, and it stabilizes the expression of p53. Leptomycin B also inhibits the export and translation of many RNAs, including COX-2 and c-Fos mRNAs, by inhibiting export of ribonucleoproteins.

Description

Diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS) also known as Anguidine,  is a mycotoxin belonging to 12,13-epoxytrichothecene group, produced by several Fusarium strains together with some other toxins such as T2 and HT2 toxins.

 DAS inhibits initiation of protein synthesis, causing the death of intensively replicating cells. By the virtue of this effect, DAS possesses teratogenic and anti proliferatory properties. Consequently,  DAS attracts interest as a potential cancer- drug.

Diacetoxyscirpenol (Anguidine) and its derivates possess anticancer properties. Diacetoxyscirpenol (Anguidine) inhibits initiation of protein synthesis, resulting in the death of rapidly proliferating cells. Diacetoxyscirpenol (Anguidine) also has been shown to both potentiate and protect against the cytotoxic effects of other drugs. There were 14 clinical trials reported, all in the area of colorectal tumors and leukemia. No records found after 1985. Apoptosis inducement.

Description

Deoxynivalenol (DON , Vomitoxin) is a type B trichothecene. It occurs in grains such as wheat, barley, oats, rye, and maize, rice, sorghum. Deoxynivalenol (DON ) is produced by numerous strains of Fusarium and some other fungi. Deoxynivalenol (DON ) poisonings occur both in humans and farm animals. Deoxynivalenol (DON ) is highly toxic, producing a wide range of immunological disturbances and is particularly noted for inducing feed refusal and emesis in pigs, hence the alternative name vomitoxin Deoxynivalenol (DON ) usually co-occurs with other Fusarium toxins, such as Zearalenone, Nivalenol and its derivates, as well as the group of fumonisins.
