ionophore

Ionomycin calcium (SQ23377 calcium) is an effective and selective calcium ionophore, demonstrating high specificity for divalent cations (Ca>Mg>Sr=Ba).

Calcimycin (A-23187) is an ionophorous, polyether carboxylic antibiotic from Streptomyces chartreusensis. It binds and transports calcium and other divalent cations across membranes, uncouples oxidative phosphorylation, and inhibits ATPase of rat liver mitochondria. The substance is primarily used as a biochemical tool to study the role of divalent cations in various biological systems.

Ionomycin is an calcium ionophore and an antibiotic that binds calcium ions (Ca2+). It is produced by the bacterium Streptomyces conglobatus.It is used in research to raise the intracellular calcium level (Ca2+) and as a research tool to understand Ca2+ transport across biological membranes. Ionomycin promotes apoptosis and induces the activation of protein kinase C (PKC).

Nigericin is a polyether antibiotic with potent antimicrobial, antimalarial, anticoronaviral and anticancer activities. It is capable of promoting cellular potassium efflux, inducing Caspase-1 GSDMD and Caspase-3-mediated cellular pyroptosis and apoptosis in triple-negative breast cancer, and inducing apoptosis in PEL (primary exudative lymphoma) cells through mitochondrial dysfunction and Wnt β-catenin signaling downregulation.

Salinomycin (Procoxacin), a polyether potassium ionophore antibiotic, specifically inhibits the growth of gram-positive bacteria, acts as a potent inhibitor of Wnt β-catenin signaling by blocking Wnt-induced LRP6 phosphorylation, and demonstrates selective activity against human cancer stem cells.

Calcimycin (A-23187) hemicalcium salt is an antibiotic and a unique divalent cation ionophore (like calcium and magnesium). It induces Ca2+-dependent cell death by increasing intracellular calcium concentration.

Lasalocid sodium (Lasalocid-A sodium) is a cationic ionophore antibiotic derived from Streptomyces lasaliensis that disrupts calcium fluxes in muscle fibers. It is primarily used as a coccidiostat, particularly in poultry.

Lasalocid (Lasalocid-A) is an ion carrier antibiotic produced by Streptomyces, which has antimicrobial and parasitic properties and is often added to feed.

Semduramicin is a carboxylic acid ionophore for management of chicken coccidiosis.

Semduramicin sodium is a carboxylic acid ionophore for management of chicken coccidiosis.

Morolic acid and moronic acid have shown sustained antidiabetic and antihyperglycemic action possibly mediated by an insulin sensitization with consequent changes of glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides, in part mediated by inhibition of 11β-HSD 1. Moro

Glutinone (IC50=24 microM) shows a significant effect on thromboxane B2 (TXB2)-release induced by calcium ionophore in human platelets.

Salinomycin sodium salt (Sodium salinomycin), an antibiotic potassium ionophore, is an effective inhibitor of Wnt β-catenin signaling.
