Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Ionomycin (56092-81-0) is a highly selective nonfluorescent calcium (Ca2+) ionophore.1 Induces a rapid rise in cytosolic Ca2+ in human neutrophils which is due to both release from cytosolic Ca2+ stores as well as Ca2+ influx.2 It activates (2 μM) and primes (20-200 nM) neutrophil NADPH oxidase2. Down regulates beta-catenin/Tcf signaling in a colon cancer cell line via suppressing the binding of Tcf to its specific DNA-binding site.3 In rat hepatoma cells, sub-lethal ionomycin activates the stress response by activating SAPK/JNK and HSF/HSE interaction leading to upregulation of HSP70 biosynthesis.4 | [Chemical Properties]
White powder | [Uses]
Ionomycin is more effective than A23187 as a Ca++ionophore.
Ionomycin is used in research on Ca++ transport across biological membranes;
Ionomycin induces apoptotic degeneration of embryonic cortical neurons | [Uses]
Ionomycin was isolated from Streptomyces conglobatus as a potent Gram positive antibiotic . During isolation, it was recognised that ionomycin exhibits a very high affinity and selectivity for calcium ions, suggesting the metabolite acts as a calcium ionophore. More recently, ionomycin has been used in cell biology as a universal calcium ionophore to explore the role of calcium regulation in the cell. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A very long-chain fatty acid that is docosa-10,16-dienoic acid which is substituted by methyl groups at positions 4, 6, 8, 12, 14, 18 and 20, by hydroxy groups at positions 11, 19 and 21, and by a (2',5-dimethyloctahydro-2,2'-bifuran-5-yl)ethanol group at
osition 21. An ionophore produced by Streptomyces conglobatus, it is used in research to raise the intracellular level of Ca2+ and as a research tool to understand Ca2+ transport across biological memb
anes. | [General Description]
Highly specific for divalent cations (Ca2+ > Mg2+ >> Sr2+ = Ba2+). More effective than antibiotic A23187 as a mobile ion carrier for Ca2+. Complexes with Ca2+ between pH 7 and 9.5, causing significant absorption in the UV range; however, in contrast to A23187 (Cat. No. 100105), it is not fluorescent. Useful for studies of Ca2+ transport across biological membranes and measurement of cytoplasmic free Ca2+. Induces apoptotic neuronal degeneration in embryonic cortical neurons. Also induces cell cycle arrest in the G1 interval of mature Burkitt lymphoma cell lines. | [Biological Activity]
Calcium ionophore; more specific than A23187 (5-(Methylamino)-2-[[2R,3R,6S,8S,9R,11R)-3,9,11-trimethyl-8-[(1S)-1-methyl-2-oxo-2-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-ethyl]-1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undec-2-yl]methyl]-4-benzoxazolecarboxylic acid ). | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Cell permeable: yes | [in vitro]
calcium ion can be extracted by ionomycin fom the queous phase into the organic phase. ionomycin also acts as a mobile ion carrier, which transports the cation across a solvent barrier [1]. | [in vivo]
efficiency of ionomycin on oocyte activation and subsequent development was evaluated, which identified ionomycin as an efficient activator at the concentation of 10 μmol/l. with a second exposure to 5 μmol/l ionomycin on blastocyst development, an improved effect was found. no adverse effects of ionomycin on mouse embryo development were identified [2]. | [storage]
