Nagstatin
Nagstatin is a naturally derived competitive inhibitor of N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG-ase), with an IC50 of 0.0012 μg/mL and a Ki of 1.7×10-8 M against porcine-derived enzyme. Nagstatin enhances cellular immune responses in normal mice and reactivates suppressed cellular immune responses in tumor-bearing mice. Nagstatin can be used in the research of various diseases such as diabetes and leukemia.

Biological Activity
Nagstatin potently and specifically inhibits partially purified porcine kidney N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase in a competitive manner, with an IC50 of 0.0012 μg/mL and a Ki of 1.7×10-8 M[1].
Nagstatin inhibits N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase, with an IC50 of 5.85 nM and a Ki of 1.10 nM against the enzyme from Spodoptera litura, an IC50 of 10.6 nM and a Ki of 9.69 nM against the enzyme from Aspergillus oryzae, an IC50 of 60.6 nM and a Ki of 8.11 nM against the enzyme from Penicillium oxalicum, an IC50 of 1.83 nM and a Ki of 0.952 nM against the enzyme from human placenta, an IC50 of 1.71 nM and a Ki of 1.64 nM against the enzyme from bovine kidney, and an IC50 of 1.87 nM and a Ki of 1.41 nM against the enzyme from jack bean[2].
