Application

KT 5720 has been used as a chemical inhibitor of cell signaling pathway. It has also been used as a protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor to study its effect on the nuclear import of CRTC1 in α-MSH-activated B16-F0 cells and on COX-2 stimulation of tumor-associated Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Specific, cell-permeable inhibitor of protein kinase A (PKA). No significant effect on protein kinase C (PKC), protein kinase G (PKG) or myosin light chain kinase (MLCK).
