T. Kagamizono et al., BASSIATIN, A NEW PLATELET-AGGREGATION INHIBITOR PRODUCED BY BEAUVERIA-BASSIANA K-717, Journal of antibiotics, 48(12), 1995, pp. 1407-1412
A new platelet aggregation inhibitor, bassiatin, was isolated from the
cultured broth of Beauveria bassiana which had been isolated from a s
oil sample collected in Yunnan province, China. The structure of bassi
atin was determined to be thyl)-3-phenylmethyl-1,4-perhydrooxazine-2,5
-dione by NMR analysis, X-ray crystallographic analysis and chemical s
ynthesis. Bassiatin inhibited ADP-induced aggregation of rabbit platel
ets with the IC50 being 1.9 x 10(-4) M.
