Description

3,4-Bis(3-indolyl)maleimide (BIM) is a protein inhibitor that binds to the DNA binding site of protein kinases. BIM inhibits the phosphorylation of protein kinase C and reduces axonal growth in model systems. It has been shown to be effective in inhibiting the activation of toll-like receptors and subsequent inflammatory responses. BIM also inhibits the expression of cytokines, such as IL-6, IL-8, and TNFα, which are involved in inflammation. The drug has been shown to inhibit dna binding activity and whole cell recordings by blocking PKC phosphorylation.
