Background

Function
ROCK1 is a RhoA effector serine/threonine kinase that regulates actomyosin cytoskeleton organization, smooth-muscle contraction, cell migration, and cell-shape control[1][2]. Mechanistically, ROCK1 promotes myosin light-chain phosphorylation and actomyosin contractility, and caspase-3 cleavage converts ROCK1 into an active apoptotic effector that drives membrane blebbing[3]. In vivo, ROCK1-deficient mice show failed eyelid and ventral body-wall closure, supporting its role in epithelial morphogenesis and actomyosin bundle assembly[4]. ROCK1 also regulates Beclin1-mediated autophagy, linking ROCK1 signaling to the balance between apoptosis and autophagy[8]. Compared with ROCK2, ROCK1 shows isoform-specific biology: ROCK1 destabilizes stress fibers through MLC2 phosphorylation and peripheral actomyosin contraction, whereas ROCK2 stabilizes actin through cofilin phosphorylation[5]. In glioblastoma models, ROCK1 is upregulated relative to normal brain tissue, and ROCK1 knockdown reduces proliferation and alters substrate-dependent migration, while ROCK2 knockdown produces different migration and proliferation effects[6]. For experimental applications, ROCK inhibitors provide tools to test ROCK-dependent contraction, motility, invasion, glaucoma, asthma, cancer, and cardiovascular mechanisms, although many compounds inhibit both ROCK1 and ROCK2[7].
