| Bioactivity | Nystatin is an orally active polyene antifungal antibiotic effective against yeast and mycoplasma. Nystatin increases the permeability of plasma membranes to small monovalent ions, including chloridion[1][2]. Nystatin is a cholesterol-sequestering agent[3], partially prevents Oxaliplatin-induced lipid raft aggregation, DR4 and DR5 clustering, and thereby reduces apoptosis[5]. |
| Invitro | Nystatin results in a significant reduction in buccal epithelial cell adhesion of all six Candida species[1]. Nystatin is an antibiotic that increases the permeability of plasma membranes to small monovalent ions, including chloridion. Nystatin increases apical chloridion permeability to the point where transepithelial chloridion transport is limited by transport across the basolateral membrane of tracheal epithelial cells, which reflects primarily the activity of the cotransporter. Nystatin (400 units/mL) increases the basal level of transepithelial 36Cl flux approximately 1.5-fold and eliminates UTP stimulation of this flux. Nystatin treatment also abolishes UTP stimulation of saturable, basolateral [3H]bumetanide binding, a measure of functioning Na-K-Cl cotransporters in these cells; isoproterenol stimulation of binding is only mildly inhibited by nystatin treatment[2]. Nystatin significantly enhances endostatin uptake by endothelial cells through switching endostatin internalization predominantly to the clathrin-mediated pathway. Nystatin-enhanced internalization of endostatin also increases its inhibitory effects on endothelial cell tube formation and migration[3]. |
