Overview
Ascomycin(Immunomycin, FR-900520, FK520) is an ethyl analog of tacrolimus (FK506) with strong immunosuppressant properties. A potent immunosuppressive agent
application:
Ascomycin is a potent immunosuppressive agent that could be used as a potential therapeutic agent for autoimmune diseases. Ascomycin is an inhibitor of PP2. It is an internal standard for LC-MS/MS testing of the immunosuppressants tacrolimus, sirolimus, and everolimus. This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable for critical quantitative applications in clinical and diagnostic testing such as therapeutic drug monitoring assays to ensure patients remain within the narrow therapeutic range of these immunosuppressants.
When we used either CD4+CD8+ thymocytes or peripheral T cells activated by phorbol ester and ionomycin, the cell surface induction of CD5 was also partially blocked by CsA, FK-520 and rapamycin . Ascomycinalso had a 3-fold lower immunosuppressive potency

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
