Description

Acephate is a broad-spectrum anticholinesterase insecticide. Acephate acts via inhibiting AChE (Cholinesterase (ChE)) activity of insects. Acephate is used for control of several species of insects in agriculture and in horticulture[1].

IC50 & Target

AChE

 

In Vitro

In rat immature Leydig cells after 3-h culture, Acephate inhibits basal androgen output in a dose-dependent manner with the inhibition starting at 0.5 μM. Acephate significantly inhibits luteinizing hormone and 8-Br-cAMP stimulated androgen output at 50 μM. Acephate significantly inhibits progesterone-mediated androgen output at 50 μM[1].

In Vivo

Adult male mice are gavaged with 0, 7, 14, and 28 mg/kg/day acephate for 28 d and sperm motility and number are decreased at 14 and 28 mg/kg/day[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
