rho-kinase-in-1

Rho-Kinase-IN-1 is an inhibitor of ROCK with Kis of 30.5 nM and 3.9 nM for ROCK1 and ROCK2, respectively. Rho-Kinase-IN-1 can be used in studies about excessive cell proliferation, remodeling, edema and inflammation diseases.

PKN1/2-IN-1 is a potent and selective PKN2 inhibitor with 14-fold higher selectivity for PKN2 than PKN1, membrane permeability and anticancer potential.Protein kinase N proteins (PKN1, PKN2 and PKN3) are effectors of Rho GTPases and are critical for survival in several tumor cell lines including prostate and breast cancer.

Rho-Kinase-IN-2 (Compound 23) is an orally active and selective inhibitor of Rho Kinase (ROCK) with CNS penetration, exhibiting a high affinity for ROCK2 with an IC50 of 3 nM. This compound is of potential interest for further investigations in Huntington's disease research [1].

Netarsudil, also known as AR-11324, is a Rho-associated protein kinase inhibitor. Netarsudil is potential useful for treating glaucoma and/or reducing intraocular pressure. Netarsudil Increases Outflow Facility in Human Eyes Through Multiple Mechanisms. Netarsudil inhibited kinases ROCK1 and ROCK2 with a Ki of 1 nM each, disrupted actin stress fibers and focal adhesions in TM cells with IC50s of 79 and 16 nM, respectively, and blocked the profibrotic effects of TGF-β2 in HTM cells. Netarsudil produced large reductions in IOP in rabbits and monkeys that were sustained for at least 24 h after once daily dosing, with transient, mild hyperemia observed as the only adverse effect.

LX7101 is a potent inhibitor of both LIM kinase (LIMK) 1 and 2, and Rho-associated kinase 1 (ROCK1) and ROCK2, with IC50 values of 32, 4.3, 69, and 32 nM, respectively. It is selective, demonstrated by its lack of cross-reactivity in a panel of binding assays involving 78 receptors, transporters, and an additional 430 kinases, at a concentration of 10 μM. The topical administration of LX7101 (3 μl of a 1 mg/ml solution) to the eye has been shown to reduce intraocular pressure in a dexamethasone-induced mouse model of glaucoma.

ROCK-IN-2 (Azaindole 1) is a selective and ATP-competitive ROCK inhibitor with IC50 of 0.6 and 1.1 nM for human ROCK-1 and ROCK-2.
