85-1561-83　Ascomycin 25mg　CAS No:104987-12-4　A3698-75

特徴

• Ascomycin inhibits the production of T helper type 1 (Th1) (interferon and IL-2) and Th2 (IL-4 and IL-10) cytokines in target cells.
• Ascomycin (also known as Immunomycin, FR 900520, and FK-520) is an analog of tacrolimus (FK-506) with immunosuppressive, neurotrophic and antifungal activities. Ascomycin can be used to prevent rejection after an organ transplant, and to treat autoimmune diseases and skin diseases.
• Ascomycin inhibits the production of T helper type 1 (Th1) (interferon and IL-2) and Th2 (IL-4 and IL-10) cytokines in target cells. Paul, C., et al.

• Antimalarial effects of ascomycin appear to be independent of its immunosuppressive properties. Monaghan, P., et al. "Antimalarial effects of macrolactones related to FK520 (ascomycin) are independent of the immunosuppressive properties of the compounds." J. Infect. Dis. 191: 1342-1349 (2005).
• FK-520 might be a substrate for P-glycoprotein; expression of P-glycoprotein in yeast cells resulted in resistance to growth inhibition by FK-520. Raymond, M., et al. "Functional expression of P-glycoprotein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae confers cellular resistance to the immunosuppressive and antifungal agent FK520." Mol. Cell Biol. 14: 277-286 (1994).
