Ordering Information

Biological Activity

ZINC00881524 acts as a selective inhibitor of Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK), a key serine/threonine kinase regulating actin cytoskeleton dynamics. By suppressing ROCK signaling, this compound interrupts downstream phosphorylation of myosin light chain and LIM kinase, modulating focal adhesion assembly, cell contraction, and cell migration. ROCK inhibition further regulates vascular tone, endothelial barrier function, and cellular morphogenetic processes. [1][2]

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
