Product Description
Sterigmatocystine is the precursor of aflatoxin, a mycocin generated by Aspergillus versicolor. Sterigmatocystine is an inhibitor (blocker/antagonist) of G1 phase and DNA synthesis and is used to inhibit p21 activity. Sterigmatocystine has teratogenic and carcinogenic effects on animal development.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Variegated cystine-induced DNA damage triggers the ATM/53-dependent signaling pathway, which in turn helps GES-1 cells enter G2 arrest [4].
ln Vivo
p21WAF1/CIP1 is inhibited by meterocystine (ip; 3 mg/kg once daily for 14 days) [3].
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
In rats given a single ip injection of 6.4 mg/animal (14)C-sterigmatocystin in DMSO, 5.6% of the activity was found in the urine, 67% in the feces and GI tract and 11% in the liver after 12 hours. These levels declined slightly after 24 hr. In fasted or non-fasted rats given 1.4 mg/animal (3)H-sterigmatocystin orally, the highest activity after 16 hr was found in the feces and GI tract; lesser amounts were found in the urine, blood, expired air, liver and kidneys.
Metabolism / Metabolites
In Vervet monkeys the major urinary metabolite was identified as sterigmatocystin-beta-d-glucuronide, which accounted for 75% of the oral dose administered.
Sterigmatocystin was covalently bound to calf thymus DNA by incubation with phenobarbital-induced rat liver microsomes. The adduct was identified as 1,2-dihydro-2-(N7-guanyl)-1-hydroxysterigmatocystin. The structure and stereochemistry of this adduct indicated that the exo-sterigmatocystin-1,2-oxide was the metabolite that reacted with DNA, and the quantitative yield of adduct indicated that this metabolite was a major product of the in vitro metabolism of sterigmatocystin.
The species sensitivity to sterigmatocystin toxicity was in the order: monkey greater than rat greater than mouse. It was postulated that these differences were due to species differences in liver sterigmatocystin distribution, sterigmatocystin 2,3-epoxide formation from sterigmatocystin and drug-metabolizing enzymes in the liver microsome.
/Sterigmatocystin is/ activated by /a/ human P450 enzyme, CYP3A4. /From table/

Additional Infomation
Sterigmatocystin can cause cancer according to an independent committee of scientific and health experts.
Sterigmatocystin is an organic heteropentacyclic compound whose skeleton comprises a xanthene ring system ortho-fused to a dihydrofuranofuran moiety. The parent of the class of sterigmatocystins. It has a role as a metabolite. It is functionally related to a dihydrodemethylsterigmatocystin.
Sterigmatocystin has been reported in Aspergillus amstelodami, Aspergillus multicolor, and other organisms with data available.
A carcinogenic mycotoxin produced in high yields by strains of the common molds, Aspergillus versicolor, A. nidulans, and an unidentified species of Bipolaris. It causes necrosis of the liver and kidney and has an inhibitory effect on orotic acid incorporation into nuclear RNA.

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)
