Abstract:
TMC-95A has been characterized as a potent proteasome inhibitor that binds to enzymes non-covalently at low nanomolar concentrations. Herein, the neuritogenic activity of TMC-95A in PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cells is reported for the first time. TMC-95A induced a positive neurite initiation of PC12 cells at concentration ranging from 1 to 20 microM.
