Biochem/physiol Actions

Bisindolylmaleimides (BIM) comprises a group of 11 compounds from BIM-I to BIM-XI. BIMs act as an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC). They are derived from staurosporine. BIM IX due to its proapoptotic functionality could be useful in targeting tumor proliferation.

Bisindolylmaleimide derivatives were originally described as protein kinase C inhibitors. However, several studies have shown that bisindolylmaleimides target several other signaling molecules. The review presents bisindolylmaleimide-mediated PKC-dependent and PKC-independent biological effects, such as reversal of MDR and modulation of Wnt

Basal-like breast cancers are commonly negative for expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors and HER-2 (triple-negative breast cancer), which makes this subtype of breast cancers more aggressive and less responsive to standard treatment. We have applied a small-scale chemical proteomics

Ro 31-8220 is a potent protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor belonging to the chemical class of bisindolylmaleimides (BIMs). Various PKC-independent effects of Ro 31-8220 have however been demonstrated, including inhibition of the ATP-binding cassette drug transporter breast cancer resistance protein.

We have reported that human prostate cancer ARCaP(E) cells undertake epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) when stimulated by certain soluble factors, and that EMT is regulated by surface receptor-elicited signaling pathways through protein phosphorylation. It is known that phorbol ester

The conventional protein kinase C isoform, PKCII, is a signaling kinase activated during the hyperglycemic state and has been associated with the development of microvascular abnormalities associated with diabetes. PKCII, therefore, has been identified as a therapeutic target where inhibitors
