H-89

For the Heath H-89 microcomputer, see Zenith Z-89.

H-89 is a protein kinase inhibitor with greatest effect on protein kinase A (PKA).^[2] H-89, derived from H-8 (N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinoline-sulfonamide),^[3] was initially believed to act specifically as an inhibitor of PKA,^[4] being 30 times more potent than H-8 at inhibiting PKA and 10 times less potent at inhibiting protein kinase G. It achieves this through competitive inhibition of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) site on the PKA catalytic subunit.^[5] However, subsequent work has suggested a variety of additional effects such as inhibition of other protein kinases (IC₅₀ values of 80, 120, 135, 270, 2600 and 2800 nM for S6K1, MSK1, PKA, ROCKII, PKBα and MAPKAP-K1b respectively),^[6] and direct inhibition of various potassium currents.^[7]

In addition to its use in studying mechanisms of cell signalling, H-89 has also been used experimentally in vivo. H-89 has been shown to increase the threshold and latency of pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures ^[8] and decrease morphine withdrawal symptoms in mice.^[9]
