Verrucarin A (VC-A) is a Type D macrocyclic mycotoxin which inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in cancer cells. Strong antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing activity of verrucarin A for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and prostate cancer cells through cell cycle arrest and inhibition of the prosurvival (antiapoptotic) AKT/NF-κB/mTOR signaling.has being demonstrated. Verrucarin A, a protein synthesis inhibitor, also induces growth inhibition and apoptosis in breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and T47D.

In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: The effect of in vitro exposure to the macrocyclic trichothecenes roridin A and verrucarin A on human lymphocyte transformation was evaluated in the mitogen-induced blastogenesis assay. Both compounds were capable of inhibiting stimulation of B- and T-cell subsets by a mitogen panel that included leukoagglutinin, concanavalin A, and pokeweed mitogen.
Doses of roridin A and verrucarin A which inhibited [3H]thymidine uptake by 50%, as averaged from this mitogen panel, were 20 and 9 pg/ml, respectively.
