Ascofuranone is an antibiotic produced by the fungus Ascochyta visiae.[1] that inhibits the Trypanosoma brucei alternative oxidase and is a lead compound in efforts to produce other drugs targeting this enzyme for the treatment of sleeping sickness.[2] The compound is effective both in vitro cell culture and in infections in mice.[1]
Ascofuranone has also been reported to have anti-tumor activity,[3] and modulate the immune system.[4]
