Ro 31-8220  (Synonyms: Bisindolylmaleimide IX)

Cat. No.: HY-13866A
Handling Instructions

Ro 31-8220 is a potent PKC inhibitor, with IC50s of 5, 24, 14, 27, 24 and 23 nM for PKCα, PKCβI, PKCβII, PKCγ, PKCε and rat brain PKC, respectively. Ro 31-8220 also significantly inhibits MAPKAP-K1b, MSK1, S6K1 and GSK3β (IC50s, 3, 8, 15, and 38 nM, respectively), with no effect on MKK3, MKK4, MKK6 and MKK7.

The free form of the compound is prone to instability, it is advisable to consider the stable salt form (Ro 31-8220 mesylate) that retains the same biological activity.

    Description

    Ro 31-8220 is a potent PKC inhibitor, with IC50s of 5, 24, 14, 27, 24 and 23 nM for PKCα, PKCβI, PKCβII, PKCγ, PKCε and rat brain PKC, respectively. Ro 31-8220 also significantly inhibits MAPKAP-K1b, MSK1, S6K1 and GSK3β (IC50s, 3, 8, 15, and 38 nM, respectively), with no effect on MKK3, MKK4, MKK6 and MKK7.

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 5 nM (PKCα), 24 nM (PKCβI), 14 nM (PKCβII), 27 nM (PKCγ), 24 nM (PKCε), 23 nM (Rat brain PKC)[1], 3 nM (MAPKAP-K1b), 8 nM (MSK1), 15 nM (S6K1), 38 nM (GSK3β)[2]

    In Vitro

    Ro 31-8220 is a potent PKC inhibitor, with IC50s of 5, 24, 14, 27, 24 and 23 nM for PKCα, PKCβI, PKCβII, PKCγ, PKCε and rat brain PKC, respectively[1]. Ro 31-8220 also significantly inhibits MAPKAP-K1b, MSK1, S6K1 and GSK3β (IC50s, 3, 8, 15, and 38 nM, respectively), with no effect on MKK3, MKK4, MKK6 and MKK7. Moreover, Ro 31-8220 directly suppresses voltage-dependent Na+ channels[2]. Ro 31-8220 (1 μM) is neuroprotective against paraoxon-induced neuronal cell death in cerebellar granule neurons, blocks paraoxon-induced caspase-3 activity, and reduces the paraoxon-induced increase in phospho-PKC pan levels[3].

    In Vivo

    Ro 31-8220 (6 mg/kg/d, s.c.) is well tolerated, and has half-life of 5.7 hours in mice. Ro 31-8220-treated MLP−/− mice show a dramatic rescue in fractional shortening after treatment for 6 weeks, but the WT mice shows no change[4].

    Cell Assay
    [1]

    A neurotoxic concentration of paraoxon (200 μM) is added to the granule cell cultures for the indicated time on day in vitro (DIV) 8. The following drugs are added to the granule cell cultures prior to or after paraoxon exposure on DIV 8: Ro-81-3220 (1 μM) is added 15 min prior to or 3 h after the addition of paraoxon. TPA (0.1 μM) is added 15 min prior to the addition of paraoxon[1].

    Animal Administration
    [4]

    Mice[4]
    The affects of long-term Ro 31-8220 administration over 4 to 6 weeks in MLP−/− heart failure mice are investigated. All mice are assessed for ventricular performance by echocardiography at the beginning of the study and 6 weeks later. Ro 31-8220 (or vehicle) is injected subcutaneously once per day at a dosage of 6 mg/kg/d[4].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
