Besides cyclosporine, does anyone know of a substance that inhibits calcineurin? I am looking for anything that can inhibit it such as plants/herbs, oils, extracts, drugs etc. Please let me know. Thank you.
There are numerous calcineurin inhibitors including the clinically approved tacrolimus (FK-506), inhibitory peptides (ITSFEEAKGLDRINERMPPRRDAMP), Ascomycin (very similar to tacrolimus, bind to FKBP-12)... The right choice depends on your specific project: in vivo targeting ? in vitro ?
