CAS 23110-15-8: Fumagillin
Description:Fumagillin is a naturally occurring antibiotic compound originally derived from the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. It is primarily known for its use in veterinary medicine, particularly in the treatment of certain parasitic infections in honeybees, such as Nosema disease. Fumagillin functions by inhibiting the enzyme methionine aminopeptidase, which is crucial for protein synthesis in susceptible organisms. This compound is characterized by its white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and dimethyl sulfoxide, but has limited solubility in water. Fumagillin has been studied for its potential therapeutic applications in humans, particularly in the context of certain cancers and other diseases, although its use is primarily focused on veterinary applications. Due to its biological activity, handling fumagillin requires caution, as it can have toxic effects at higher concentrations. As with any pharmaceutical compound, proper safety measures and regulatory guidelines should be followed when using or studying fumagillin.
