Biological description

Potent calcineurin inhibitor (IC50 = 5 nM) which inhibits mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) opening and also acts as a P-glycoprotein inhibitor.

Additionally, it increases AKT activation, displays immunosuppressive, tumor promoting and pro-angiogenic properties.

It also shows antiviral activity and inhibits the replication of diverse coronaviruses.
