Tetranactin is a macrotetrolide and a monovalent cation ionophore that has been found in S. aureus and has antibacterial, insecticidal, and mitogenic activities.{42589,42590} It exhibits an equilibrium permeability ratio 1,000-fold greater for lithium than sodium or cesium ions accross bilayer membranes at low voltages.{42590} Tetranactin inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and C. miyabeanus and R. solani fungi when used at concentrations less than 0.9 μg/ml.{42589} Tetranactin (0.5-1.5 μg per insect) dose-dependently increases the mortality of adult C. chinensis weevils up to 100% and has mitogenic activity against T. telarius when sprayed onto plants with an LC50 value of 9.2 μg/ml. It reduces IL-1β- and cAMP-induced secretion of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) from rat mesangial cells (IC50s = 43 and 33 nM, respectively).{42591} Tetranactin (50 ng/ml) suppresses the proliferation of human T lymphocytes induced by allogeneic cells and IL-2 and supresses the generation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes in mixed lymphocyte cultures.{42592} In vivo, tetranactin (10 mg/animal per day) completely inhibits the formation of experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU) in rats.{42593}

Description

A monovalent cation ionophore; exhibits an equilibrium permeability ratio 1,000-fold greater for lithium than sodium or cesium accross bilayer membranes at low voltages; inhibits the growth of twelve Gram-positive bacteria strains and C. miyabeanus and R. solani fungi on agar plates at C. chinensis weevils from 0.5-1.5 μg per insect; has mitogenic activity against T. telarius (LC50 = 9.2 μg/ml); reduces IL-1β- and cAMP-induced secretion of PLA2 from rat mesangial cells (IC50s = 43 and 33 nM, respectively); suppresses the proliferation of human T lymphocytes induced by allogeneic cells and IL-2 at 50 ng/ml; completely inhibits the formation of EAU in rats at 10 mg/animal/day ,
