Reveromycin A, a benzoquinoid antibiotic isolated from the genus Streptomyces, is a selective inhibitor of protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells. Reveromycin A inhibits bone resorption by inducing apoptosis specifically in osteoclasts. Reveromycin A has antiproliferative activity against tumor cell lines and antifungal activity[1][2].
Reveromycin A inhibits protein synthesis in osteoclasts (OCs) by selectively blocking enzymatic activity of isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase[2].
Reveromycin A (0.3-30 μM; for 24 h) induces apoptosis in OCs through inhibition of protein synthesis[2].
Reveromycin A (20 mg/kg; twice daily; i.v.; for 3 days) significantly decreases numbers of OCs without affecting numbers of osteoblasts in normal 4-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats[2].
