Product Description

Cell permeable tumor promoter by specific inhibition of the (sarco)endoplasmatic reticulum Ca²⁺-ATPase (SERCA). Inhibition of SERCA reveals a significant change in intracellular Ca²⁺ homeostasis and pH regulation in tumor cells. Does not increase inositol phosphates. Shows no effect on protein kinase C (PKC). Increases Ca²⁺-dependent Na⁺ influx in human platelets in a dose-dependent manner. Induces apoptosis. Stimulates nitric oxide (NO) production, contributing to hepatocyte apoptosis.

Product Description

Inhibitor of intracellular protein transport and protein secretion, interfering with trafficking in the trans-Golgi network, leading to the accumulation of cycling proteins in ERGIC clusters. Blocks ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) in an inactive GDP-bound conformation and thereby prevents binding of COPI coats to ERGIC and Golgi membranes. Upon brefeldin A treatment the Golgi rapidly tubulates and fuses with the ER by an energy-, temperature-, and microtubule-dependent process. In contrast, the drug has little effect on the ERGIC, which keeps its identity, although the ERGIC clusters become larger and more uniformly distributed in the cytoplasm of the cells. Inhibits intracellular collagen degradation. Also inhibits apical Na⁺ channels in epithelia. Induces apoptosis.
