General description
A cell permeable, highly specific inhibitor of protein kinase C (IC50 = 50 nM) that interacts with the protein’s regulatory domain by competing at the binding site of diacylglycerol and phorbol esters. Does not compete with Ca2+ or phospholipids. At higher concentrations inhibits myosin light chain kinase (IC50 >5 µM), protein kinase A (IC50 >50 µM), protein kinase G (IC50 >25 µM), and p60v-src (IC50 >50 µM). Induces apoptotic DNA fragmentation and cell death in HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells. Requires brief exposure to light for activation.
Cell-permeable, highly specific inhibitor of protein kinase C (IC50 = 50 nM) that interacts with the protein′s regulatory domain by competing at the binding site of diacylglycerol and phorbol esters. At higher concentrations inhibits myosin light chain kinase (IC50 >5 µM), protein kinase A (IC50 >50 µM), protein kinase G (IC50 >25 µM), and p60v-src protein tyrosine kinase (IC50 >50 µM). Does not compete with Ca2+ or phospholipids. Also induces apoptotic DNA fragmentation and cell death in HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells. Inhibition of PKC is dependent on exposure to light in cell-free systems. Ordinary fluorescent light is sufficient for full activation.

Chronic malnutrition (M) affects >1 billion people worldwide. Epidemiological data point to long-term renal and cardiovascular outcomes (e.g. arterial hypertension, cardiorenal syndromes). The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) has been implicated in the physiopathology of these disturbances, but M-induced alterations in RAAS-modulated
