Fumagillin (dicyclohexylamine) is a natural antibiotic, secreted by Aspergillus fumigatus. It is used in veterinary medicine. In this study, the genotoxicity of fumagillin was evaluated in mouse bone marrow cells using the mitotic index (MI) and micronucleus (MN) assay. The results suggest that fumagillin (dicyclohexylamine) has an antiproliferative and genotoxic potential in mammal in vivo test.
