The Cytochalasins (Greek cytos, cell; chalasis, relaxation) are a group of related fungal metabolites. They were discovered in 1964 during the screening of mold filtrates for possible biological activity on cells. These fungal toxins are related by chemical structure. All are characterized by a highly substituted hydrogenated isoindole ring to which is fused a macrocyclic ring. The macrocyclic ring may vary from 11–14 atoms and may be either a carbocycle or lactone. These fungal toxins also share a number of unusual, interesting, and characteristic effects on the animal cell. sigmaaldrich
