ROCK
Rho-associated protein kinase; Rho-associated kinase; Rho-kinase; ROK
ROCK (Rho-associated protein kinase) is a kinase belonging to the AGC (PKA/ PKG/PKC) family of serine-threonine kinases. ROCKs (ROCK1 and ROCK2) occur in mammals, zebrafish, Xenopus, invertebrates and chicken. Human ROCK1 has a molecular mass of 158 kDa and is a major downstream effector of the small GTPase RhoA. Mammalian ROCK consists of a kinase domain, acoiled-coil region and a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, which reduces the kinase activity of ROCKs by an autoinhibitory intramolecular fold if RhoA-GTP is not present. ROCK plays a role in a wide range of different cellular phenomena, as ROCK is a downstream effector protein of the small GTPase Rho, which is one of the major regulators of the cytoskeleton.

Y-27632 hydrochloride hydrate
0 ImagesY-27632 hydrochloride hydrate is a ROCK inhibitor with Ki values of 220 nM and 300 nM for ROCK1 and ROCK2, respectively. Y-27632 hydrochloride hydrate exerts anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects in systemic lupus erythematosus models by inhibiting the ROCK/NF-κB pathway. Y-27632 hydrochloride hydrate enhances autophagy by inhibiting the AKT/mTOR pathway, thereby inducing apoptosis apoptosis in oral squamous cell carcinoma. Y-27632 hydrochloride hydrate induces the formation of tunneling nanotubes in ARPE-19 cells and significantly enhances mitochondrial transfer through these channels. Y-27632 hydrochloride hydrate promotes neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells by activating the Rac1/NOX1/ROS/AKT/PAK1 signaling cascade.

Exoenzyme C3, clostridium botulinum
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-P2325CAS No.: 58319-92-9Exoenzyme C3, clostridium botulinum, is a mono-ADP-ribosylating enzyme. Exoenzyme C3, clostridium botulinum specifically modifies RhoA, B, and C by transferring ADP-ribose to them, thereby inactivating these GTPases. Exoenzyme C3, clostridium botulinum can induce neuronal axonal and dendritic growth, inhibit macrophage migration, and regulate cytoskeletal dynamics. Exoenzyme C3, clostridium botulinum can be used in the research of spinal cord injury and diabetic painful neuropathy.

Coptisine
0 ImagesCoptisine is an orally active and brain-penetrant alkaloid found in Coptis chinensis. Coptisine is a reversible, uncompetitive IDO inhibitor with a Ki of 5.8 μM and an IC50 of 6.3 μM. Coptisine suppresses neuroinflammation, reduces Aβ plaque burden and shows neuroprotective activity. Coptisine shows anti-inflammation activity by blocking NF-κB, MAPK, and PI3K/Akt activation. Coptisine inhibits cancer cells proliferation, induces DNA damage, G2/M phase cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, ROS production and mitochondrial dysfunction. Coptisine inhibits Rho/ROCK pathway activation, reduces arrhythmia, limits cardiac injury marker release, reduces infarct size, and preserves cardiac function in rat myocardial ischemia/reperfusion models. Coptisine downregulates HMGCR and upregulates LDLR and CYP7A1 to modulate cholesterol metabolism, reduces abnormal serum lipid levels, and promotes fecal bile acid excretion. Coptisine can be used for the research of cancer, hypercholesterolemia, Alzheimer’s disease, inflammatory disorders and cardiovascular disease.
