          Background

          Dinactin is a macrotetrolide antibiotic that acts as an ionophore for monovalent cations, such as NH4+, K+, and Rb+. Dinactin has been used to study the membrane properties [1]. Dinactin is considered as an active molecule that S. araujoniae produced to control B. cinerea[2].
          In vitro: Dinactin inhibited T-cell proliferation induced by IL-2, by mAb to CD3, and by mAbs to CD3 plus α-CD28 with identical dose-response curves. The IC50 was 10–20 ng/ml. Dinactin inhibited cytokine production with IC50 values of 10 ng/ml for IL-4 and IL-5, 30 or 60 ng/ml for interferong or IL-2, respectively [3].Dinactin inhibited cytokine production through a post-transcriptional mechanism. Dinactin also reduced pulmonary eosinophilia when administered within 1 d of airway antigen challenge [3].
