DETAILS

Description (English)

Biochem/physiol Actions
Potent inhibitor of actin polymerization; disrupts actin microfilaments; activates the p53-dependent pathways; inhibits smooth muscle contraction; inhibits insulin-stimulated glucose transport.
Cell permeable fungal toxin; potent inhibitor of actin polymerization. Disrupts actin microfilaments and activates the p53-dependent pathways causing arrest of the cell cycle at the G1-S transition. Inhibits smooth muscle contraction. Inhibits insulin-stimulated, but not basal, transport of glucose.
Cytochalasin B is a cell permeable fungal toxin and potent inhibitor of actin polymerization. It disrupts actin microfilaments and activates the p53-dependent pathways causing arrest of the cell cycle at the G1-S transition. It inhibits smooth muscle contraction and insulin-stimulated, but not basal, transport of glucose.
Application
Cytochalasin B is used to inhibit sugar transport in fibroblasts 1, decrease cytoskeletal actin and myosin in rabbit neutrophils 2, and to stimulate B lymphocytes 3. It is a potent inhibitor of actin polymerization, disrupts actin microfilaments, activates the p53-dependent pathways, inhibits smooth muscle contraction, and inhibits insulin-stimulated glucose transport.
