Some optimal culture conditions for production of cyclosporin a by Fusarium roseum

Abstract: A suitable chemically defined culture medium was selected and some optimal conditions for the production of the highly immunosuppressive compound, cyclosporin A (Cyc A) are reported. Medium of the following composition was favorable for the production of Cyc A by Fusarium roseum: glucose, 30; NaNO 3 , 2; KH 2 PO 4 , 1; MgSO 4 .7H 2 O, 0.5 and KCL, 0.5 (g/l). Maximum productivity of Cyc A was achieved at pH 6.0 when 50 ml of the fermentation medium/250 ml flask, inoculated with five fungal agar discs (6 mm, dia… Show more

“…It was reported that Fusarium sp. produced cyclosporin A [71,72] and acts as an antifungal agent against other strains of fungi, such as some Aspergillus , Curvularia , Trichophyton , Rhodotorula , Botrytis , Alternaria , and Neurospora [72,73] . Cyclosporin A binds to the intracellular cyclophilin receptor to form a specific complex and then binds to calcineurin, which is a protein phosphatase dependent on calcium and calmodulin, inhibiting its enzymatic activity.…”

“…The irradiation presents an additional stress to the cells which tends to disturb their organization. Irradiation effects have been shown to occur with proteins, enzymes, nucleic acid, lipids and carbohydrates, all of which may have marked effects on the cell (Ismail et al, 2010).…”

“…Fungi have a specific response to different growing environments that affects the biosynthesis of active secondary metabolites. Environmental changes can alter the chemical and biological profiles leading to metabolite diversification and, consequently, to novel pharmacological applications (Bracarense and Takahashi 2014; Ismaiel et al 2010).…”

“…Fungal endophytes are hyper-diverse and abundant groups that can be found colonizing the tissues of all plants, regardless of their taxonomical affiliation or environmental preferences (Ismaiel et al 2010). Throughout centuries, medicinal plants have been used as a source of molecules with therapeutic potential, and until today they represent an important pool for the identification of novel drug leads (Atanasov et al 2015).…”
