Bioactivity Filipin complex is a potent broad spectrum 28-membered ring pentaene macrolide antifungal antibiotic. Filipin complex is also a highly fluorescent polyene. Filipin complex specifically binds free cholesterol and is well established as a histochemical marker for the detection of unesterified cellular cholesterol. Filipin complex consists of four analogues (Filipins I-IV), with Filipin III (HY-N6718) comprising the bulk (>70%) of the complex[1][2][3].
Invitro Filipin complex interacts with membrane sterols causing the alteration of membrane structure[2]. For cholesterol staining, cells were incubated with Filipin complex for 2 h[3].
