Swainsonine isolated from Metarhizium sp., was found to enhance the activities of the mouse immune system in vitro. Concanavalin A stimulated lymphocyte proliferation and proliferative response in mixed lymphocytes culture, which were suppressed by immunosuppressive factor obtained from serum of sarcoma 180 tumor bearing mouse, were restored to normal ...

A convenient approach to (-)-8-epi-swainsonine
A novel and efficient synthesis of (-)-8-epi-swainsonine (2) is reported. Face-selective diol formation from the bicyclic alkene 3 followed by a stereoselective vinylation of the aldehyde and ring-closing metathesis gave the indolizidine ring system ...

Swainsonine: an inhibitor of glycoprotein processing. [PDF]
Swainsonine, an indolizidine alkaloid, inhibits the processing of asparagine-linked glycoproteins in both cell-free extracts and animal cells in culture. Thus, in a liver particulate enzyme preparation, swainsonine at 0.1-1.0 microM inhibited the mannosidase that releases [3H]mannose from a high mannose glycopeptide but only slightly inhibited the ...

Potential Degradation of Swainsonine by Intracellular Enzymes of Arthrobacter sp. HW08
Swainsonine (SW) is a toxin produced by locoweeds and harmful to the livestock industry. Degrading SW by Arthrobacter sp. HW08 was demonstrated as a promising way to deal with SW poisoning.
