    Product Description

    Bisindolylmaleimide V (BIM V) is a weak inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC) demonstrating an IC50 value >100 µM.1,2,3 While effectively inactive as a PKC inhibitor, BIM V blocks the activation of mitogen-stimulated protein kinase p70s6k/p85s6k (S6K) in vivo with an IC50 value of 8 µM.4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
