Anisomycin (2-p-methoxyphenylmethyl-3-acetoxy-4-hydroxypyrrolidine) is an antibiotic isolated from cultures of various Streptomyces. Anisomycin is a potent, structurally specific, and reversible inhibitor of protein biosynthesis in certain yeast and mammalian cells. The inhibition occurs subsequent to the formation of aminoacyl transfer ribonucleic acid but prior to the release of polypeptides from the polyribosome. Anisomycin has unspecified effects that can produce temporary amnesia for a reactivated memory and they also could be responsible for any permanent effects that anisomycin produces. Anisomycin is known to cause apoptosis by activation of MAPK cascade.

Sample Use Guides

In order to make toxicological evaluation of Anisomycin, acute and four-week continuously intravenous toxicity studies were performed in mice. The calculated LD(50) for Anisomycin was 119.64 mg/kg. The mice were intravenously injected through mouse tail vein with a total dose of 5, 15, 30 and 60 mg/kg/mice of Anisomycin every other day for 4 weeks. Just in the high-dose mice, death of three mice happened and body weight of the mice was significantly decreased.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
Treatment of U251 and U87 cells with anisomycin (0.01-8 μmol/L) inhibited the cell growth in time- and concentration-dependent manners (the IC(50) values at 48 h were 0.233±0.021 and 0.192±0.018 μmol/L, respectively). Anisomycin (4 μmol/L) caused 21.5%±2.2% and 25.3%±3.1% of apoptosis proportion, respectively, in U251 and U87 cells. In the two cell lines, anisomycin (4 μmol/L) activated p38 MAPK and JNK, and inactivated ERK1/2.
