Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8486620 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21366551 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16956345

Indolocarbazole GO-6976 inhibited the calcium-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes alpha and beta 1. As PKC is a central enzyme that modulates numerous biological functions GO-6976 is extensively used as a tool for studying the involvement of PKC in signal transduction pathways. GO6976 was originally synthesized by Goedecke (formerly a subsidiary of Warner-Lambert, now Pfizer) in Germany. Preclinical investigations carried out by Goedecke have been for the potential treatment of HIV infections. Preclinical research with GO 6976 had been conducted by Biomol Inc. and Calbiochem in the USA as a potential treatment for cancer. No further information has been available for the compound therefore it is assumed that development has been discontinued. In addition to GO-6976 inhibition of PKC, it was reported that GO-6976 also inhibits JAK 2 and FLT3 tyrosine kinases and non-kinase transmembrane guanylyl cyclase.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: GO-6976 is CNS active in animals. No human data available.

Inflammation-induced multinucleation in cultured microglia was prevented by a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor GO-6976 (100 nM). Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH ) significantly induced follicle-enclosed oocytes (FEOs) meiotic resumption, however, the induced effect of FSH was dose-dependently inhibited by Gö6976, and 100 nM Gö6976 completely blocked FSH function in oocyte meiotic resumption.
