Fumagillin is a complex biomolecule and used as an antimicrobial agent. It was isolated in 1949 from the microbial organism Aspergillus fumigatus . [1]

Uses

In animals

It was originally used against microsporidian parasites Nosema apis infections in honey bees.[ citation needed ]

Some studies found it to be effective against some myxozoan parasites, including Myxobolus cerebralis, an important parasite of fish; however, in the more rigorous tests required for U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval, it was ineffective.[ citation needed ]

There are reports that fumagillin controls Nosema ceranae , [2] which has recently been hypothesized as a possible cause of colony collapse disorder. [3] [4] The latest report, however, has shown it to be ineffective against N. ceranae. [5] Fumagillin is also investigated as an inhibitor of malaria parasite growth. [6] [7]

In humans

Fumagillin has been used in the treatment of microsporidiosis. [8] [9] It is also an amebicide. [10]

Fumagillin can block blood vessel formation by binding to an enzyme methionine aminopeptidase 2 [11] and for this reason, the compound, together with semisynthetic derivatives, are investigated as an angiogenesis inhibitor [12] in the treatment of cancer.

The company Zafgen conducted clinical trials using the fumagillin analog beloranib for weight loss, [13] but they were unsuccessful. [14]

Fumagillin is toxic to erythrocytes in vitro at concentrations greater than 10 μM. [15]

Total synthesis

Fumagillin and the related fumagillol (the hydrolysis product) have been a target in total synthesis, with several reported successful strategies, racemic, asymmetric, and formal. [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24]
