DLVJMFOLJOOWFS-INMLLLKOSA-N

Biochem/physiol Actions

Inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC) both in vivo and in vitro. Alters the spindle shaped morphology of v-Ha-ras-transformed NIH3T3 cells to a flattened shape and induces an intricate actin stress fiber network in these cells and in MG63 osteosarcoma cells. Also exhibits anti-angiogenic activity.

Depudecin, an eleven-carbon linear polyketide made by the pathogenic fungus Alternaria brassicicola, is an inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC). A chemically unrelated HDAC inhibitor, HC toxin, was earlier shown to be a major virulence factor in the interaction between Cochliobolus

A novel compound, depudecin, induced production of the flat phenotype of Ki-ras-transformed NIH3T3 cells at the low concentration of 1 microgram/ml. This effect was reversible. Actin stress fiber was detected in these cells after depudecin treatment. Almost complete reversion to

A novel compound depudecin inducing the flat phenotype of ras- and src- transformed NIH3T3 cells at a concentration of 1 microgram/ml was isolated from the culture broth of Alternaria brassicicola. Based on its spectroscopic characteristics and X-ray crystallographic analysis of

Neospora caninum is an apicomplexan parasite associated with abortion in cattle worldwide. Apicidin, histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, has shown a broad spectrum of anti-protozoal activity against apicomplexan parasites. Cultured vero cells infected with N. caninum tachyzoites were treated with 0.5

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the extract from the wood-decayed fungus Xylaria sp. BCC 1067 led to the isolation of five antiplasmodial compounds, (-)-depudecin, (+)-phaseolinone, (+)-phomenone, 19,20-epoxycytochalasin Q, and (E)-methyl 3-(4-methoxyphenoxy)propenoate. These structures were elucidated using spectroscopic methods, especially NMR analysis.
