Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Nigericin is a polyether ionophore which catalyzes the electroneutral exchange of alkali metal (K+) for H+ (antiport). Nigericin transports monovalent cations across membranes with the following specificity: K+ >Rb+ >Cs+ >>Na+ and thus, disrupts membrane potential and stimulates ATPase activity in mitochondria.
Nigericin kills bacteria by facilitating the diffusion of ions across membranes.
Low concentration (0.5 μM) of Nigericin rapidly decreases pHi, causing stimulation of PG production 1.5- to 2-fold in cerebral microvascular endothelial cells and arresting of DNA synthesis in Erlich acites carcinoma cells. Treatment of Hela cells, after entry of poliovirus, with nigericin, prevents the inhibition of host protein synthesis by poliovirus. Nigericin is also widely used in studies of the consequences of changes in membrane potential in variable systems.

Notes préparatoires

Nigericin sodium salt ready made solution is provided at 6.7 mM concentration. The solution can be further diluted with a desired solvent to a working concentration (0.5-10 μM).
This product is a 5 mg/mL solution prepared in a 1:1 mixture of DMSO and Ethanol.

Stockage et stabilité

The product can be stored at 2-8°C and is released with a 4 years suggested retest schedule. The solution is quite stable refrigerated and freezing is not necessary.

The mode of action of reutericyclin was determined with fluorescent dyes that probed the permeability of the cytoplasmic membrane by large molecules, protons, and potassium. A comparison of reutericyclin activity with those of nisin, nigericin, and valinomycin demonstrated that reutericyclin

At an external pH of 3.5, nigericin (which catalyses an electroneutral H+/K+ exchange) abolished the transmembrane proton gradient (delta pH) of Bacillus acidocaldarius, causing a rapid acidification of the cytoplasm from approximately pH 6.0 to pH 3.5. A pronounced loss

Non-canonical inflammasome activation that recognizes intracellular lipopolysaccharide (LPS) causes pyroptosis, the inflammatory death of innate immune cells. The role of pyroptosis in innate immune cells is to rapidly eliminate pathogen-infected cells and limit the replication niche in the host body.
