mycotrienin II

Description

Ansatrienin b (82189-04-6) represents a novel class of ansamycins.1 Inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption.2 Potentiates the activity of several clinically useful antitumor agents.3 Translation inhibitor which prevents ICAM-1 expression induced by pro-inflammatory cytokines.4

The Uses of mycotrienin II

Ansatrienin B, also known as Mycotrienin II and Antibiotic T 23II, was isolated from a Streptomyces sp.. Closely related to the cytotrienins and trienomycins, it displays potent activity against tumour cell lines and inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption. Ansatrienin B also significantly potentiates the action of several clinical anti-cancer agents.

What are the applications of Application

Ansatrienin B is an ansamycin antibiotic that contains a triene structure
