J Antibiot (Tokyo). 1992 Mar;45(3):348-54. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.45.348.

Abstract

FR-111142 is a new angiogenesis inhibitor produced by a fungus Scolecobasidium arenarium F-2015. FR-111142 inhibited endothelial cell proliferation in vitro and angiogenesis in the growing chick chorioallantoic membrane model in vivo. Further, FR-111142 also suppressed the solid tumor growth in mice.
