Glucosidases catalyze the cleavage of individual glucosyl residues from various glycoconjugates, including complex carbohydrates and glycoproteins. Castanospermine is an inhibitor of both ?- and ?-glucosidases, inhibiting lysosomal and neutral ?-glucosidases with Ki values of 0.1 and 10 ?M, respectively, and lysosomal and cytosolic ?-glucosidases with Ki values of 7 and 40 ?M, respectively.{20414} It is effective both in vitro and in vivo.{20410,20409} Through its effects on glucosidases, castanospermine blocks N-linked glycosylation during post-translational modification of proteins, affecting protein trafficking and cell functions that are dependent on glycosylation, including angiogenesis.{20409,20411} Castanospermine also interferes with viral replication and infection that is dependent on glucosidase activity.{16269,20412,20413}
