Abstract excerpt
Epiderstatin is a unique glutarimide antibiotic which was found by screening for inhibitors of the signal transduction of epidermal growth factor (EGF). The antibiotic (0.01 microM) was found to reverse the morphology of NRK cells that were infected with a temperature-sensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus (srcts-NRK) from the transformed phenotype to the normal phenotype at the permissive temperature (32 degrees...
