|Section2= |Section3= }} Acivicin is an inhibitor of gamma-glutamyl transferase. It is fermented product of ''Streptomyces sviceus'' and has promise as an antineoplastic agent. It interferes with glutamate metabolism and inhibits glutamate dependent synthesis of enzymes, and is thereby potentially helpful in treatment of solid tumors. ==Research== In vivo studies have showed that Acivicin at a concentration of 5 µM Acivicin inhibited by 78% the growth of human pancreatic carcinoma cells (MIA PaCa-2) after 72 hours in continuous culture. It was also found that acivicin at a concentration of 450 µM irreversibly inactivated MIA PaCa-2 γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (10 nmol/min/106 cells) with an inactivation half-life of 80 minutes.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Acivicin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
