Ansatrienin A, isolated from a Streptomyces sp., is closely related to the cytotrienins and trienomycins. It displays potent activity against tumor cell lines and inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption. Ansatrienin A also significantly potentiates the action of several clinical anti-cancer agents.
Ansatrienin A is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF and DMSO.
