what is A23187:
A23187 is an antibiotic possessing weak in vitro antimicrobial activity against gram positive bacteria and fungi, as well as functioning as a divalent cation ionophore. Ion selectivity is Mn2+>Ca2+=Mg2+>>Sr 2+>Ba2+. Commonly used to increase intracellular Ca2+ levels in intact cells. Also acts as an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation and an inhibitor of mitochondrial ATPase activity. A23187 also induces apoptosis in mouse lymphoma cell line (S49); however, A23187 has been shown to block apoptosis in other systems, such as when interleukin–3 (IL–3) is withdrawn from IL–3–dependent cells. Recommended working concentration is 2–2.5 mM.
