Cyclopiazonic acid is a tremorigenic indole produced by several species of the genera Aspergillus and Penicillium. Cyclopiazonic acid is a highly specific inhibitor of calcium ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum, altering calcium homeostasis and ATP-dependent calcium transport and resulting in the induction of release of intracellular stored Ca2+ without increasing IP3.
