General description

Cyclosporin A (CsA) is a fungal metabolite, a cyclic undecapeptide. It has highly specific immunosuppressive effects with low myelotoxicity, thereby making it a valuable drug in human organ transplantation. Its immunosuppressive activity is based upon its ability to inhibit early steps of T-lymphocyte activation such as lymphokine gene transcription.
Cyclosporin A has been used to:
  • Prevent rejection of kidney and liver transplants.
  • In graft versus host disease.
  • Treatment of autoimmune diseases.
  • Treatment of Schistosomiasis.

Application

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Biochem/physiol Actions

A fungal metabolite possessing potent immunosuppressive properties. It inhibits the T-cell receptor signal transduction pathway via the formation of cyclosporin A−cyclophilin complex that inhibits calcineurin (protein phosphatase 2B). Inhibits nitric oxide synthesis induced by interleukin 1α, lipopolysaccharides and TNFα. Can block cytochrome c release from mitochondria.
Potent immunosuppressant; inhibits nitric oxide synthesis induced by interleukin 1α, lipopolysaccharides and TNFα; blocks cytochrome c release from mitochondria.

Cyclophilin, a specific cytosolic binding protein responsible for the concentration of the immunosuppressant cyclosporin A by lymphoid cells, was purified to homogeneity from bovine thymocytes. Cation-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography resolved a major and minor cyclophilin species that bind cyclosporin A
