Application

Gö 6976 has been used:
  • as an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC) in mammalian cell lines
  • as a PKCμ inhibitor in oocytes
  • as a PKC-α to test its effect on phosphorylation of protein kinase-B (Akt) and extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK) levels

Biochem/physiol Actions

Go¨6976 also acts as an effective inhibitor of protein kinase C isoform (PKCμ) and abolishes phorbol ester mediated potentiation in oocytes. It inhibits PKC α and β selectively. Go-6976 may also inhibit S6-kinase 1.
Gö 6976 is an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC) specific for α (IC50=2.3 nM) and β1 (IC50=6.2 nM) isozymes.

Chronic hyperglycemia induces insulin resistance by mechanisms that are incompletely understood. One model of hyperglycemia-induced insulin resistance involves chronic preincubation of adipocytes in the presence of high glucose and low insulin concentrations. We have previously shown that the mTOR complex

The potentiation of P2X(1) receptor currents by phorbol ester (PMA) treatment and stimulation of mGluR1alpha receptors was sensitive to inhibition of novel forms of protein kinase C. Potentiation was also reduced by co-expression of an amino terminal P2X(1) receptor minigene.

A cardiac hypertrophy is defined as an increase in heart mass which may either be beneficial (physiological hypertrophy) or detrimental (pathological hypertrophy). This study was undertaken to establish the role of different protein kinase-C (PKC) isoforms in the regulation of

Protein kinase C (PKC) is involved in gonadotrophin-induced oocyte maturation. In the present study, we investigated the role of specific PKC isoforms in the process of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-induced oocyte meiotic resumption. Small antral follicles (200-300 µm in diameter) were
