Staurosporine

개요Staurosporine (Stsp) is potent inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC) from rat brain, exhibiting an IC50 value of 2.7 nM. It inhibits rat recombinant PKC-α approximately 100- and 1,000-fold better than PKC-δ and PKC-ζ, respectively. However, Stsp is non-selective in that it also inhibits the activity of a variety of other protein kinases, not only PKC isoforms. The biological effects of Stsp include cytotoxicity, relaxation of smooth muscle, and regulation of eNOS gene expression.

출처A complex alkaloid. staurosporine has been isolated from a strain of Streptomyces.

용도Staurosporine is an unusual indolocarbazole alkaloid produced by a range of actinomycete species. It is a potent antitumour active, inducing apoptosis in a variety of cell lines. Staurosporine is a potent inhibitor of many kinases including protein kinase C, tyrosine kinase, CDK2/cyclin A and CDK4/cyclin D. At submicromolar concentrations, staurosporine inhibits both IKKalpha and IKKbeta.

일반 설명A potent, cell-permeable, reversible, ATP-competitive and broad spectrum inhibitor of protein kinases. Inhibits CaM kinase (IC50 = 20 nM), myosin light chain kinase (IC50 = 1.3 nM), protein kinase A (IC50 = 7 nM), protein kinase C (IC50 = 0.7 nM), and protein kinase G (IC50 = 8.5 nM). Also inhibits platelet aggregation induced by collagen or ADP but has no effect on thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. Induces apoptosis in human malignant glioma cell lines. Arrests normal cells at the G1 checkpoint.
