Description

Fumagillin is an antimicrobial compound initially produced by species of Aspergillus that exhibits anti-parasitic, antimalarial, anti-fibrotic, anti-angiogenic, and anticancer chemotherapeutic activities. Fumagillin is clinically used to treat microsporidiosis and displays efficacy against Plasmodium, Nosema, and Enterocytozoon. In vivo, fumagillin decreases pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, and ventricular remodeling. In cellular and animal models of colorectal cancer, fumagillin inhibits type 2 methionine aminopeptidase, preventing tube and vessel formation and well as cell proliferation, migration, and adhesion; it also decreases tumor mass.
