Product Description

Bafilomycin A1 (formerly known as NSC-381866; NSC381866; NSC 381866) is a novel, potent and selective inhibitor of vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPases) with antibacterial activity. It inhibits vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPases) with IC50 of 0.44 nM. It is a macrolide antibiotic isolated from the Streptomyces species. The inhibitory effect of bafilomycin A1 on vacuolar ATPases was determined by testing its influence on H+-pumping activity. H+ translocation was completely inhibited by 10 nM bafilomycin A1. Other study has shown that bafilomycin A1 strongly inhibited the pit-forming activity of osteoclasts. The subcellular localization of V-ATPase in osteoclasts was been treated with or without bafilomycin A1 by immunoelectron microscopy. Bafilomycin A1 triggers proliferative potential of senescent cancer cells in vitro and in NOD/SCID mice. Bafilomycin A1 induces caspase-independent cell death in hepatocellular carcinoma cells via targeting of autophagy and MAPK pathways.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Bafilomycin A1 is exposed to various membrane ATPases, exhibiting an I50 of 400 nmol/mg, 4 nmol/mg, and 50 nmol/mg for the vacuolar ATPases of a plant (Z. mays), an animal (bovine abrenal medulla), and a fungus (N. crassa). The 50% inhibition of ATPase activity expressed as μmol of Bafilomycin A1 per mg of protein is known as the I50 values[1]. By blocking both V-ATPase-dependent acidification and Ca-P60A/SERCA-dependent autophagosome-lysosome fusion, bafilomycin A1 ((-)-Bafilomycin A1) impairs autophagic flux[2]. Pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells are specifically and efficiently inhibited and killed by bafilomycin A1 at a low concentration (1 nM). It induces apoptosis without the need for caspase and targets mitochondria, the autophagy pathway, and both early and late stages of the pathway. Beclin 1 binds to Bcl-2 when bafilomycin A1 is present, further inhibiting autophagy and encouraging apoptotic cell death[5]. Bafilomycin A1 inhibits the growth of the HO-8910 ovarian cancer and BEL-7402 hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines as well as their ability to spread. Bafilomycin A1 is thought to cause apoptosis, according to tests using capsase-3 and -9 and transmission electron microscopy[6]. Whether or not they are transformed, NIH-3T3 fibroblasts, PC12 and HeLa cells, and golden hamster embryos are among the many cultured cells whose growth is dose-dependently inhibited by bafilomycin A1. When it comes to inhibiting cell growth, bafilomycin A1's IC50 ranges from 10 to 50 nM[7].
ln Vivo
Low-dose Bafilomycin A1 (0.1 mg/kg) administered over an extended period of time modestly reduces the tumor volume, but the final tumor volume is not substantially different from the control. After 21 days, however, long-term administration of a high dose of Bafilomycin A1 (1 mg/kg) effectively slows tumor growth as compared to controls[8]. The survival of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) xenograft mice with advanced disease is prolonged by bafilomycin A1 (0.1 mg/kg or 1 mg/kg; intraperitoneally for 3 days)[9].

  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
