K252a is an alkaloid isolated from "Nocardiopisis" sp. soil fungi. This Staurosporine analog is a highly potent cell permeable inhibitor of CaM kinase and phosphorylase kinase (IC50 = 1.8 and 1.7 nmol/L, respectively). At higher concentrations it is also an efficient inhibitor of serine/threonine protein kinases (IC50 of 10 to 30 nmol/L). [Ruegg, U.T. "et al." (1989) Tips 10, 218.] [Eliot, L.H. "et al." (1990) B.B.R.C. 171, 148.] [Simpson, D.l. "et al." (1991) J. Neurosci. Res, 28, 148.] [Chin, L.S. "et al." (1999) Cancer Invest. 17, 391.] [Tapley, P. "et al." (1992) Oncogene 7, 371.] [Hashimoto, S. (1998) J. Cell Biol. 107, 1531.] [Kase, H. "et al." (1987) B.B.R.C. 142, 436.] [Hirayama E. "et al." (2001) B.B.R.C. 285, 1237.]

K252a is reported to promote myogenic differentiation in C2 mouse myoblasts [Tapley, P. "et al." (1992) Oncogene 7, 371.] and has been shown to block the neuronal differentiation of rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells by inhibition of trk tyrosine kinase activity. [Borasio, G.D. Neurosci. Lett. (1990) 108, 207.] Paradoxically, K252a exerts neurotrophic effects on primary sensory neurons, neuroblastoma cells, PC12 cells, and central neurons. [Hashimoto, S. "et al." (1989) Exp. Cell Res. 184, 351.] [Tischler, A.S. "et al." (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 1141.]

K252a inhibits tyrosine phosphorylation of Trk A induced by NGF. PC12 cells were incubated in the presence or absence of 10 ng/ml NGF with or without various concentrations of K252a.
