Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

GF-109203X is a potent and highly selective PCK inhibitor, which inhibits PKC isozymes alpha, beta 1, beta 2, gamma, delta and epsilon in vitro . GF-109203X inhibited GSK-3 in vitro, when assayed either in cell lysates (IC(50) 360 nM or in GSK-3beta immunoprecipitates (IC(50) 170 nM derived from rat epididymal adipocytes. Pretreatment of adipocytes with GF-109203X (5 microM) reduced GSK-3 activity in total cell lysates, to 25.1+/-4.3% of control.

Product Data
Biological target:
Bisindolylmaleimide I (GF109203X) is a highly selective, cell-permeable, and reversible protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor with a Ki of 14 nM.
In vitro activity:
Fig. 1B demonstrates that Bis I inhibits both short term and long term FGF2-mediated Erk activation in RCS cells. Similar data were obtained with human primary chondrocytes (Fig. 1C). Reference: J Biol Chem. 2007 Feb 2;282(5):2929-36. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17145761/

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
