Storage: Store at or below -20 ºC. Solubility: Soluble in DMSO at 100 mg/mL; soluble in ethanol at 100 mg/mL; very poorly soluble in water; maximum solubility in plain water is estimated to be about 10 µM; buffers, serum, or other additives may increase or decrease the aqueous solubility.

- More than 920 labs worldwide have purchased FK-506 from LC Labs (either directly from us or from our many distributors, many of whom resell under their own labels).
- Ascomycin level is less than 0.9%.
- FK-506 is a potent immunosuppressant and in vitro T cell proliferation blocker. It has been shown to disrupt calcineurin (also known as CaN or phosphatase 2B)-mediated signal transduction in T lymphocytes. The compound interacts with its FK506-binding protein-12 (FKBP12). The resulting complex, in turn, interferes with calcineurin substrate interaction. Dumont, F.J. "FK506, an immunosuppressant targeting calcineurin function." Curr. Med. Chem. 7: 731-748 (2000).
- FK-506 inhibits FKBP activity resulting in an increase in the release of sarcoplasmic reticulum-derived calcium. FK-506 also appears to inhibit Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange. Unlike rapamycin, which also binds to FK506-binding protein-12, FKBP12 with or without bound FK506 has no effect on rat brain PKC activity in vitro. McCall, E., et al. "Effects of FK-506 on contraction and Ca2+ transients in rat cardiac myocytes." Circ. Res. 79: 1110-1121 (1996). Rokaw, M.D., et al. "Rapamycin inhibits protein kinase C activity and stimulates Na+ transport in A6 cells." J. Biol. Chem. 271: 32468-32473 (1996).
- Water content of LC Labs' F-4900, FK506:
PLEASE NOTE: We do not attempt or purport to control the water content of our FK-506 product. We use the CAS number assigned to the anhydrous form.
Here are the water levels of our most recent lots, as determined by elemental analysis:
ATH-123 0.9 eq
ATH-122 0.9 eq
ATH-121 1.0 eq
ATH-120 1.0 eq
ATH-119 none
ATH-118 0.8 eq
ATH-117 0.8 eq
ATH-116 0.8 eq - Drying compounds to the point of complete absence of water is often a completely futile exercise, because many organic compounds rapidly rehydrate when opened to the air, even for short periods of time, in normal use. The rate and avidity of such re-hydration is sometimes very impressive, indeed awesome in some cases, even for compounds that are not generally recognized as being hydroscopic.
- Sold for laboratory or manufacturing purposes only; not for human, medical, veterinary, food, or household use.
