General description
Chemical structure: indol derivative
Application
Staurosporine from Streptomyces sp. was used to induce cell death in human mesenchymal stem cells and to induce cell death by PKC inhibition in hamster lung fibroblast line CCL-39.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Partially reverses MDR, sensitizing cells with MDR phenotype to cytotoxic agents. Inhibits Pgp phosphorylation. However, functional significance of Pgp phosphorylation is ill defined.
Staurosporine from Streptomyces sp. yields clear, colorless to faint yellow solution in methanol at 2 mg/ml.
Potent inhibitor of phospholipid/calcium-dependent protein kinase. Inhibits the upregulation of VEGF expression in tumor cells.
