Cecropin A is a linear 37-residue antimicrobial polypeptide, with anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity.

Cecropin A shows anticancer activity. Cecropin A (10-50 μM) dose-dependently reduces the viability of HL-60 cells. Cecropin A (30 μM) promotes ROS production, causes mitochondrial membrane potential (δψm) collapse, and generates morphological changes in nuclear chromatin in HL-60 cells. Cecropin A (30 μM) also leads to an early apoptosis and cuases caspase-independent cell death in HL-60 cells[1]. Cecropin A has cytotoxicity on gram negative bacteria, including A. baumanii (CCARM 12005, CCARM 12035, CCARM 12036, CCARM 12037) with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.5-1 μM. Cecropin A (25 μM) significantly blocks the expression of mTNF-α, mIL-1β, and mMIP-2 mRNA and slightly inhibited the expression of mMIP-1 mRNA in RAW264.7 cells. Cecropin A (0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5 μM) also inhibits NO production and reduces mTNF-α cytokine levels in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells, and exihibits anti-inflammatory activity[2].
