General Description

• Cyclosporin A is a non-polar cyclic oligopeptide produced by the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum

Applications

• It inhibits phosphoprotein phosphatase
• Cyclosporin A binds to the cellular protein cytophilin and inhibits the enzyme calcineurin
• Furthermore, it can induce apoptosis and inhibit angiogenesis induced by VEGF
• It exerts potent immunosuppressive activity on T immune cells, and causes reversible inhibition of immunocompetent lymphocytes in the G0- and G1-phase of the cell cycle
• It also suppresses the hepatitis C virus replication in cultured hepatocytes
