Verrucarin A BiologicalActivity

DescriptionVerrucarin A (Muconomycin A), a Type D macrocyclic mycotoxin derived from the pathogen fungus Myrothecium verrucaria, is an inhibitor of protein synthesis. Verrucarin A inhibits growth of leukemia cell lines and activates caspases and apoptosis and inflammatory signaling in macrophages. VA effectively increased the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and diminished the phosphorylation of ERK/Akt. VA caused cell cycle deregulation through the induction of p21 and p53[1][2].

In VitroVerrucarin A (0-0.6 μM/ml; 24-48 hours)-induces time- and dose-dependent growth inhibition in MCF-7 cells[1]. Verrucarin A increases the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and subsequently induces mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm) loss, leading to the increase of Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, cytochrome c release, caspase activation, PARP degradation, and apoptosis[1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: MCF-7 cells Concentration: 0-0.6 μM/ml Incubation Time: 24 and 48 hours Result: Growth of MCF-7 cells is significantly inhibited in a dose- and time-dependent manner, with the IC50s of 0.41 and 0.29 μM/ml for 24- and 48-h treatment periods, respectively.
