Biological Activity

[Description]:

Ferrichrome is a hydroxamate siderophore produced by various fungi, including U. sphaerogena, that facilitates iron chelation and uptake by these organisms. It can be used as a heterosiderophore by bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Ferrichrome (0.8 μM) inhibits concanavalin A-induced proliferation of mouse spleen monocytes and reduces the number of concanavalin A-stimulated CD4+ T cells expressing IL-2 receptor. It also inhibits the heme-catalyzed oxidation of LDL by hydrogen peroxide in a concentration-dependent manner.
