 Use of Dihydrocytochalasin B


Dihydrocytochalasin B is a Cytokinesis inhibitor and changes the morphology of the cells, similar to that of cytochalasin B; does not inhibit glucose transport[1]. Dihydrocytochalasin B (H2CB) disrupts the actin structure and inhibits the ability of growth factors to stimulate DNA synthesis, reversibly blocks initiation of DNA synthesis, causes cell rounding and a loss of actin microfilament bundles[2]. Dihydrocytochalasin B is related to transcytoplasmic movement of calcium by inhibiting active calcium transport and causes a Ca+increase in the mucosal scrapings[3].
