Additionnal Information

Ionomycin calcium (SQ23377 calcium) is a potent and selective calcium ionophore and an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces conglobatus. It is highly specific for divalent cations (Ca>Mg>Sr=Ba) and also promotes T cell activation and proliferation by inducing phosphoinositide hydrolysis and protein kinase C (PKC) activation, leading to IL-2 production and IL-2R expression.
