  • Scientific Description
    Antibiotic. Antibacterial and antifungal properties [1, 2]. Forms a complex with FKBP12 and inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Inhibits the response to interleukin-2 (IL-2), and thereby blocks activation of T and B cells [3, 5, 6, 11]. Potent immunosuppressant [4, 10] used as an alternative to calcineurin inhibitors [12]. Restricts the proliferation of smooth-muscle cells by blocking cell cycle progression at the G1/S transition [7, 13]. Anti-proliferative. Antitumor compound [14, 15]. Apoptosis enhancer. Activator of autophagy both in vitro and in vivo [8, 9]. Anti-HIV and anti-aging compound [16, 17]. Neuroprotective [18]. Suppressor for self-renewal and vascular differentiation potential in hemangioma stem cells [19]. mTORC1 inhibitor [20]. - Chemical. CAS: 53123-88-9. Formula: C51H79NO13. MW: 914.2.
