生化机理 | Castanospermine, originally derived from Castanosperum australe has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of almond emulsion β-glucosidase, and also to inhibit fungal β-xylosidase. Other studies show castanospermine to have the capacity to make viral glycopeptides more susceptible to enzyme treatment. Additionally, castanospermine may have the potential ability to inhibit syncytium formation between HIV-infected and CD4-expressing cells and may also interfere with infectivity. It has also been demonstrated that this agent inhibits inflammation at the level of leukocyte extravasation in rat models of experimental adjuvant-induced arthritis and autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Castanospermine is an inhibitor of Glucosidase I, Maltase-glucoamylase, and MANBA. |
