PSP94 Activators
PSP94 Activators are a collection of chemical compounds designed to enhance the functional activity of PSP94 through various biochemical signaling routes. Forskolin, by targeting adenylyl cyclase to increase cAMP levels, indirectly fosters PSP94 activity through PKA, which is known to phosphorylate substrates that could stabilize or enhance the interactions of PSP94 within its signaling context. Rolipram and IBMX also lead to increased cAMP levels, but via inhibition of PDE4 and non-specific phosphodiesterases respectively, which similarly amplifies PKA activity and could subsequently increase the functional activity of PSP94. Epigallocatechin Gallate acts as a kinase inhibitor, which might reduce competitive kinase activity, thus potentially creating a more favorable signaling environment for PSP94 activation.
The ionophore A23187 raises intracellular calcium levels, which may activate calcium-dependent signaling mechanisms, offering another potential route to bolster PSP94 activity. Sildenafil, through its inhibition of PDE5 and subsequent rise in cGMP levels, could activate PKG and thereby promote PSP94 activity. Lastly, ZM-241385, by antagonizing the adenosine A2A receptor, may enhance PSP94 function by indirectly increasing PKA activity due to elevated cAMP.

Forskolin | 66575-29-9 | sc-3562 sc-3562A sc-3562B sc-3562C sc-3562D | 5 mg 50 mg 1 g 2 g 5 g | $78.00 $153.00 $740.00 $1413.00 $2091.00 | 73 | |
Forskolin directly activates adenylyl cyclase, leading to an increase in cAMP levels. Elevated cAMP activates PKA, which can phosphorylate target proteins and thereby enhance the activity of PSP94 by promoting its stabilization or interaction with binding partners. | ||||||
Rolipram | 61413-54-5 | sc-3563 sc-3563A | 5 mg 50 mg | $77.00 $216.00 | 18 | |
Rolipram inhibits phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), which leads to an accumulation of cAMP in cells. This increased cAMP can activate PKA, which may indirectly lead to the phosphorylation and activation of PSP94. | ||||||
IBMX | 28822-58-4 | sc-201188 sc-201188B sc-201188A | 200 mg 500 mg 1 g | $260.00 $350.00 $500.00 | 34 | |
IBMX is a non-selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterases, preventing the breakdown of cAMP and cGMP. Elevated levels of these cyclic nucleotides enhance PKA and PKG activity respectively, which can contribute to the phosphorylation and hence activation of PSP94. | ||||||
(−)-Epigallocatechin Gallate | 989-51-5 | sc-200802 sc-200802A sc-200802B sc-200802C sc-200802D sc-200802E | 10 mg 50 mg 100 mg 500 mg 1 g 10 g | $43.00 $73.00 $126.00 $243.00 $530.00 $1259.00 | 11 | |
Epigallocatechin gallate is a catechin found in green tea, known to inhibit several protein kinases. This inhibition can lead to altered cell signaling pathways, potentially reducing competitive signaling and thereby enhancing the PSP94 pathway. | ||||||

A23187 is an ionophore that increases intracellular calcium levels, potentially activating calcium-dependent signaling pathways that could enhance the functional activity of PSP94. | ||||||
ZM 241385 | 139180-30-6 | sc-361421 sc-361421A | 5 mg 25 mg | $92.00 $356.00 | 1 | |
ZM-241385 is an adenosine A2A receptor antagonist, which may upregulate cAMP by inhibiting the action of adenosine on its receptor. This can increase PKA activity, potentially enhancing the activity of PSP94. | ||||||
