| Cyclic hydrophobic oligopeptide isolated from the filamentous fungi, Tolypocladium inflatum, with potent immunosuppressant properties. Induces apoptosis in rat thymocytes and in murine B cell lymphoma cells, but prevents apoptosis in BLB cell lines induced by anti-IgM and ionomycin. The complex of cyclosporin A with cyclophilin inhibits T-cell receptor signal transduction pathway via the inhibition of calcineurin (protein phosphatase 2B) with nanomolar affinity (Ki 270nM). Cyclosporin A inhibits interleukin-1a-, lipopolysaccharide-, and TNF-a-nitric oxide synthesis induction. | | | Catalog # | C8900-02 | | Solubility | Soluble in DMSO or ethanol | | Loss on Drying | 2% | | Heavy Metals | 0.002% | | Storage and Stability | | | Store tightly sealed in the dark at -20°C.
