Aklavin is a structural analog of Aclacinomycin A (HY-N2306) produced by Streptomyces strain A 1165. Aklavin possesses Z-DNA-inducing and stabilizing activities, along with antibiotic, anti-phage and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities. Aklavin inhibits the proliferation of various viruses (such as influenza virus and poliovirus) and interferes with their nucleoprotein synthesis, while also exhibiting inhibitory effects on staphylococci, mycobacteria and specific fungi. Aklavin blocks phage-induced bacterial lysis by regulating host-parasite interactions. Aklavin shows specific toxicity to fertilized eggs and mice, and does not alter the splicing of the SMN2 gene.

Description

Aklavin is a structural analog of Aclacinomycin A (HY-N2306) produced by Streptomyces strain A 1165. Aklavin possesses Z-DNA-inducing and stabilizing activities, along with antibiotic, anti-phage and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities. Aklavin inhibits the proliferation of various viruses (such as influenza virus and poliovirus) and interferes with their nucleoprotein synthesis, while also exhibiting inhibitory effects on staphylococci, mycobacteria and specific fungi. Aklavin blocks phage-induced bacterial lysis by regulating host-parasite interactions. Aklavin shows specific toxicity to fertilized eggs and mice, and does not alter the splicing of the SMN2 gene[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Aklavin (0.001-5.0 mg/mL) shows variable phagocidal activity against free phage particles, with paratyphoid Poona phage 1 being the most sensitive (99% inactivation at 0.05 mg/mL) and Bacillus cereus phage being the least sensitive (33% inactivation at 5.0 mg/mL), and requires far higher concentrations to inactivate free phages than to prevent phage-mediated lysis[2].
Aklavin (24 h; 72 h) inhibits bacterial growth with varying potency via agar dilution assay, showing the highest potency against Corynebacterium sepedonicum (minimum inhibitory concentration 1.56 μg/mL after 72 hr incubation) and the lowest potency against 7 bacterial species (minimum inhibitory concentration >100 μg/mL after 24 hr incubation)[2].
Aklavin hydrochloride (0.1-10 nM; 5 days) does not alter the SMN2 splicing pattern in SV40-transformed type I SMA fibroblast cell line 3061[3].

RT-PCR[3]

Cell Line: SV40-transformed type I SMA fibroblast cell line 3061
Concentration: 0.1 nM, 1 nM, 10 nM
Incubation Time: 5 days
Result: Failed to alter the SMN2 splicing pattern.
Remained comparable to untreated or DMSO-treated cells in full-length SMN transcript levels and the ratio of full-length to Δexon 7 isoforms.
In Vivo

Aklavin (0.002-1.0 mg/mL; injection; post 1-hour pre-incubation with virus) inactivates eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus in vivo, with 1.0 mg/mL fully protecting all mice against the 1% virus dose and 0.01 mg/mL fully protecting all mice against the 0.1% virus dose[2].
Aklavin (0.002-0.05 mg/kg; i.p.) does not inhibit herpetic infection in mice[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Mice with Eastern equine encephalomyelitis[2]
Dosage: 0.002 mg/mL, 0.01 mg/mL, 0.1 mg/mL, 1.0 mg/mL

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
