Biological Activity

Description Fumagillin(Amebacilin,NSC9168) is a selective and potent irreversible inhibitor of Methionine aminopeptidase 2 (MetAP2), used as an antibiotic to treat microsporidiosis.
Targets
MetAP2 [1]
In vitro

Fumagillin selectively inhibits the growth of a Δmap1 strain but not a wild-type or a Δmap2 S. cerevisiae strain missing MetAP-2. [1] In budding yeast cells, as a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis, Fumagillin not only reverses the growth inhibitory activity of Vpr, but also inhibits Vpr-dependent viral gene expression upon the infection of human macrophages. [3] Though the toxicity of fumagillin has limited its use for human applications, the analogues using structure-activity relationships relating to its angiogenesis properties may be further explored in the treatment of angiogenesis-dependent diseases. [4]

In vivo

In DEN-treated rats, fumagillin (30 mg/kg, i.p.) inhibits both progression of HCC in the liver itself and systemic metastasis. [2]
