Abstract
A new compound, migrastatin, was isolated from a cultured broth of Streptom yces sp. MK929-43F1, as an inhibitor of tumor cell migration. It was purifi ed by column chromatographies on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 and HPLC. Mi grastatin has the molecular formula of C27H39NO7 consisting of 14-membered macrolide and glutarimide moiety. It inhibited spontaneous migration of hum an esophageal cancer EC17 cells. Migration inhibitory activity of migrastat in was not dependent on cytotoxicity or inhibition of protein synthesis.
