General description
A cell-permeable, reversible, and ATP-competitive Ca2+ antagonist with anti-vasospastic properties. Inhibits protein kinase A (Ki = 1.6 µM), protein kinase G (Ki = 1.6 µM), and myosin light chain kinase (Ki = 3.6 µM). Also reported to potently inhibit Rho-associated kinase (ROCK; IC50 = 10.7 µM). Prevents apoptosis and enhances the survival and cloning efficiency of dissociated hES cells without affecting their pluripotency.
