Cytochalasin D (Zygosporin A) is a cytopermeable actin polymerization inhibitor derived from fungi, which inhibits g-actin -- Cofilin interaction by binding g-actin. Cytochalasin D (Zygosporin A) can also inhibit the binding of Cofilin to F-actin, reduce the release of exosomes and induce YAP phosphorylation. Cytochalasin D is a potent inhibitor of actin polymerization. Cytochalasin D disrupts actin microfilaments. Cytochalasin D activates the p53-dependent pathways. Cytochalasin D inhibits smooth muscle contraction. Cytochalasin D inhibits insulin-stimulated glucose transport.

| Cell lines | ScN2a cells |
| Preparation method | ScN2a cells were seeded in 12-well plates (BD Falcon) with a growth medium 1.5×105 cells/well. The cells were treated after 24 h with or without 10 μM cytochalasin D and incubated for a further 24 h. Cytochalasin D was dissolved in DMSO (dimethyl sulphoxide), and thus DMSO (0.1%)-treated cells were used as controls. |

| CK-636
CK-636 is an Arp2/3 complex inhibitor with IC50 of 4 μM, 24 μM and 32 μM for inhibition of actin polymerization induced by human, fission yeast and bovine Arp2/3 complex, respectively. |
| CK 666
Ck-666 is a cell-permeable inhibitor (IC50=12 μM) of the Arp2/3 complex, which binds to the Arp2/3 complex and stabilizes the inactive state of the complex, preventing the movement of Arp2 and Arp3 subunits into the active filamentous conformation. |
