Hodoodo CAT#: H300152

CAS#: 59865-13-3

Description: Cyclosporine A, also known as cyclosporine, is a natural cyclic polypeptide immunosuppressant isolated from the fungus Beauveria nivea. The exact mechanism of action of cyclosporine is not known but may involve binding to the cellular protein cytophilin, resulting in inhibition of the enzyme calcineurin. This agent appears to specifically and reversibly inhibit immunocompetent lymphocytes in the G0-or G1-phase of the cell cycle. T-lymphocytes are preferentially inhibited with T-helper cells as the primary target. Cyclosporine also inhibits lymphokine production and release.

More Info:

Biological target: Cyclosporin A is an immunosuppressant which binds to cyclophilin and inhibits phosphatase activity of calcineurin with an IC50 of 5 nM.
In vitro activity: In vitro studies indicated that Cyclosporin A (CsA) inhibited partial OSCC (oral squamous cell carcinoma) growth by inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and the migration and invasion of OSCC cells. It was also demonstrated that CsA could inhibit the expression of NFATc1 and its downstream genes COX-2, c-Myc, MMP-9, and MMP-2 in OSCC cells. These data demonstrated that CsA can inhibit the progression of OSCC cells as well as mediate the signal molecules of NFATc1 signaling pathway, which has a strong relationship with cancer development.

In vivo activity: Cyclosporine A (Cyp A) was evaluated for its site-specificity in the treatment of TNBS induced colitis. The appearance of the drug in systemic circulation at approximately 5 hours in New Zealand strain of rabbits confirms drug delivery at distal parts of intestine. Significant reduced levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10 in drug treated animals signifies inhibition of inflammatory reactions at the TNBS treated site. Simultaneously, the change in body weight of the same group of animals was observed for 15 days. Results showed a marginal recovery of body weight in Cyp A treated TNBS induced colitis animals. In conclusion, all in vivo results confirm the successful site specific delivery and anti-inflammatory efficacy of developed formulation of Cyp A in TNBS induced colitis in New Zealand rabbits.
