CAS NO.: 56377-79-8; Nosiheptide. PROPERTIES: Nosiheptide is a yellowish powder with a complex cyclic structure containing sulfur and peptide bonds. It is poorly soluble in water but soluble in DMSO or formic acid. The compound is stable at room temperature when stored in a dry, light-protected container. As an antibiotic, it should be handled with care to avoid inhalation or ingestion, though its toxicity is low in standard use. APPLICATIONS: Nosiheptide is a thiopeptide antibiotic used as a feed additive in veterinary medicine to promote growth in livestock. It inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, primarily targeting gram-positive bacteria. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential anticancer properties due to its ability to induce apoptosis in cancer cells. This application is documented in veterinary science literature and preclinical oncology research.
