Description

Aphidicolin is an inhibitor of DNA polymerase α and δ, prevents mitotic cell division by interfering DNA polymerase activity. Aphidicolin is an antibiotic produced by mold Cephalosporium aphidicola, inhibits cellular deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis and the growth of herpes simplex virus. Aphidicolin exhibits anti-orthopoxvirus activity and potentiates apoptosis induced by arabinosyl nucleosides in a human promyelocytic leukemia cell line[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Aphidicolin (0.5 μM, 5 μM; 0-5 d) selectively kills neuroblastoma cells, but shows moderate cytotoxicity on normal human embryonal cells and HeLa, H9, A549 and Caco-2 cell lines[4].
Aphidicolin (0.4 μg/mL; 3 d) arrests cell cycle at G2 phase[5].
Aphidicolin (100 nM-10 μM; 48 h) inhibits cell proliferation via the p53-GADD45β pathway and (1 μM; 24 h) induces apoptosis in AtT-20 cells[6].
Aphidicolin (10 μM; 0-6 h) decreases the phosphorylation of Akt, (100 nM-10 μM; 24 h) increases the mRNA levels of the stress response gene growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible 45β (GADD45β), a putative downstream target of p53[6].
Aphidicolin (10 μM; 0-6 h) inhibits Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) with EC50s of 0.5-0.6 μM, with low cytotoxicity[7].

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.
