| | GRAMICIDIN A Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Gramicidin A is an effective antibiotic against Gram positive organisms. | | Biological Activity | Cell permeable: no', 'Primary Target
Causes the formation of a monovalent cation-selective ion channel', 'Product does not compete with ATP.', 'Reversible: no | | in vivo | Gramicidin A (0.11 mg/kg; intratumoral injection; twice weekly for 14 days) inhibits the growth of RCC tumor xenografts[2].
Gramicidin A (0.22 mg/kg; intratumoral injection; thrice weekly for 26 days) inhibits the growth and angiogenesis of VHL-expressing RCC tumor xenografts[3]. | Animal Model: | Female hairless Nu/J mice, 6- to 8-week old, injected subcutaneously with a suspension of SN12C cells (1.0 × 106) in a 50% growth factor–reduced Matrigel solution[2] | | Dosage: | 0.11 mg/kg body weight | | Administration: | Intratumoral injection, twice weekly for 14 days | | Result: | The average tumor mass was reduced by approximately 40% without significant toxicity. |
| Animal Model: | Female hairless 6- to 8-week-old Nu/J mice, injected subcutaneously with a suspension of Caki-1-td-Tomato cells (1.5 × 106) in a 50% growth factor-reduced Matrigel solution[3]. | | Dosage: | 0.22 mg/kg | | Administration: | Intratumoral injection, thrice weekly for 26 days | | Result: | Inhibited tumor growth. HIF-2α and GAPDH protein expression was substantially reduced. |
| | Purification Methods | Purify gramicidin A by countercurrent distribution from *C6H6/CHCl3, MeOH/H2O (15:15:23:7) with 5000 tubes. Fractions are examined by UV (280nm) of small aliquots. Separation from gramicidin C and other material occurred after 999 transfers. [Gross & Witkop Biochemistry 4 2495 1965, Bauer et al. Biochemistry 11 3266 1972.] Purify it finally by recrystallisation from EtOH/H2O and dry it at 100o/10-2mm over KOH. It forms platelets m 229-230o. It is almost insoluble in H2O (0.6%) but soluble in lower alcohols, dry Me2CO, dioxane, acetic acid and pyridine. The commercial material is more difficult to crystallise than the synthetic compound. [Sarges & Witkop J Am Chem Soc 86 1861 1964, 87 2011, 2020 1965.] It has characteristic [] D20 +27.3o (c 1.3, MeOH) and UV max at 282nm ( 22,100). The N-carbamoyldeformyl gramicidine A precipitates from EtOAc/pet ether (b 40-60o). [Beilstein 26 III/IV 4273.] |
