Introduction：Basic information about CAS 99570-78-2|K252b, including its chemical name, molecular formula, synonyms, physicochemical properties, and safety information, etc.
K-252b, an indolocarbazole isolated from the actinomycete Nocardiopsis, is a PKC inhibitor. K-252b can be used to inhibit extracellular kinases of cells in culture because it can’t pass through cell membrane freely [1][2][3].
