General description

Suitable for use as a potent inhibitor of PKC and other protein kinases in vitro and in cultured cells.

Application

Staurosporine has been used as a protein kinase inhibitor to study the ubiquitin-protein ligase E3 component N-recognin 5 (UBR5)-mediated CDC73 regulation at the protein level. Staurosporine has been used to induce apoptosis in CHO-K1 cell lines, followed by cell imaging and extraction of cell lysate for further analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Staurosporine, a broad-spectrum protein kinase inhibitor, belongs to the indolocarbazole family. It is referred to as a prototypical ATP-competitive kinase inhibitor. Staurosporine is effective against various kinds of cancers. It is commonly used for inducing apoptosis in different types of cells.

The p21-activated kinases (PAKs) are Ser/Thr kinases in the STE20 kinase family with important roles in regulating cytoskeletal organization, cell migration, and signaling. The PAK enzyme family comprises six members subdivided into two groups: Group I, represented by PAK1, 2

The loss of cell volume or cell shrinkage, termed apoptotic volume decrease (AVD), is a classical characteristic of apoptosis. Microscopy, Coulter electronic sizing, and/or flow cytometry has traditionally been the means to measure this characteristic of apoptosis. Although electronic cell

Lower yields and poorer quality of biopharmaceutical products result from cell death in bioreactors. Such cell death is commonly associated with programmed cell death or apoptosis. During apoptosis, caspases are activated and cause a cascade of events that eventually lead

Electrophysiological experiments in our laboratory have led to the discovery that the cholinergic neurons in the nucleus basalis in the rat forebrain possess constitutively active inward rectifier K(+) channels. Unlike cloned inward rectifier K(+) channels, these constitutively active inward rectifier
