Biological Activity
GSK180736A is a G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.77 μM.
In Vitro
GSK180736A is a compound structurally similar to paroxetine that is developed as a ROCK inhibitor, is shown to be an even more potent and selective inhibitor of GRK2 with an IC50 of 0.77 μM and more than 100-fold selectivity over other GRKs. ROCK1 is a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. GSK180736A is a weak inhibitor of PKA with an IC50 of 30 μM, but highly potent against ROCK1 (IC50=100 nM)[1].
