STO-609 is a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase (CaMKK) inhibitor (IC50s = 120 and 40 ng/ml for CaMKKα and CaMKKβ, respectively).1 It is selective for CaMKKs over CaMKI, CaMKII, CaMKIV, MLCK, PKC, PKA, and p42 MAPK (IC50s = ≥10,000 ng/ml for all). STO-609 inhibits phosphorylation of CaMKI and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in chicken sperm in the presence of extracellular calcium, as well as reduces chicken sperm motility, in a concentration-dependent manner.2 It decreases hypothalamic neuropeptide Y (Npy) and agouti-related protein (Agrp) expression and cumulative food intake in mice when administered intracerebroventricularly as a 20 μM solution at a continuous rate of 0.5 μL/hour .3 STO-609 (3 μg/animal, i.c.v.) increases cortical, striatal, and total infarct volume in a mouse model of focal transient cerebral ischemia induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).4
