Viriditoxin
Viriditoxin ((-)-Viriditoxin) is a mycotoxin. Viriditoxin promotes tubulin polymerization, and inhibits FtsZ polymerization and GTPase activity. Viriditoxin exhibits cytotoxicity against cancer cells, induces apoptosis, inhibits cell migration and colony formation, induces G2/M phase arrest, and triggers autophagic cell death. Viriditoxin activates caspase-3, cleaves PARP, promotes cytochrome c release, and induces ROS production. Viriditoxin possesses broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria, fish pathogenic bacteria, and permeabilized Gram-negative bacteria. Viriditoxin can be used in research related to ovarian cancer, lung cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, colon cancer, neuroblastoma, prostate cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, bacterial infections, and streptococcosis.

Biologische Aktivität
Beschreibung
In Vitro
Viriditoxin (0.05-20 μM; 24-48 h) inhibits the proliferation of LNCaP, DU145 and PC3 cells, with the strongest inhibitory activity against LNCaP cells (48 h IC50 = 0.63 μM)[2].
Viriditoxin (0.01-30 μM; 8-24 h) potently induces caspase-dependent apoptosis in Ramos and Jurkat cells with a rapid kinetic process: it activates caspase-3, cleaves PARP, and increases the number of apoptotic nuclei in a dose-dependent manner at 3-5 h[5].
Viriditoxin (12.5-100 μg/mL; 75 min) induces filament formation in permeabilized, SulA-deficient E. coli MB5431 cells, indicating that it inhibits bacterial cell division[3].
Viriditoxin (10-100 µM; 1 h) promotes the polymerization of purified porcine brain tubulin in vitro[1].
Viriditoxin (200 μg/mL; 120 min) inhibits the GTPase activity of wild-type and luciferase-labeled *Escherichia coli* FtsZ protein, with an average IC50 of 7.0 μg/mL[3].
