ab18197 staining PCNA in SK-N-SH cells treated with KN-62 (ab120421), by ICC/IF. Increase in PCNA nuclear expression correlates with increased concentration of KN-62, as described in literature.
The cells were incubated at 37°C for 24h in media containing different concentrations of ab120421 (KN-62) in DMSO, fixed with 100% methanol for 5 minutes at -20°C and blocked with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% tween for 2h at room temperature. Staining of the treated cells with ab18197 (1 µg/ml) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit polyclonal antibody (ab96899) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI and are shown in blue.

Supplementary information

CaMKII also known as calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II is a multifunctional serine/threonine kinase. It exists in various isoforms including CaMKII alpha beta and delta which are differentially expressed in tissues like the brain and heart. CaMKII has a molecular mass ranging from approximately 50 to 60 kDa depending on the isoform. P2X7 is a purinergic receptor important in immune system function expressed in tissues such as the brain bone and immune cells. These proteins play vital roles in multiple biological processes by activating and modulating cellular signals.
Biological function summary

CaMKII performs key functions in synaptic plasticity and memory formation in neurons. It forms multi-subunit complexes and undergoes autophosphorylation to sustain its activity. In cardiac muscle CaMKII regulates calcium homeostasis impacting heart muscle contraction. P2X7 receptors are important for mediating ATP-induced cellular processes within immune cells. Their activation leads to the formation of pores that allow ions and molecules to pass through which is vital for inflammasome activation and apoptosis.

Pathways

Both CaMKII and P2X7 plays significant roles in intracellular signal transduction. CaMKII is heavily involved in the CaMK cascade and interacts with other kinases like KN-62 and chemokine pathways. This regulation impacts synaptic responses and cardiac muscle function with CaMKII linking to proteins such as calmodulin and nitric oxide synthase. P2X7 on the other hand affects pathways related to inflammasome assembly interacting with proteins like ASC and caspase-1 which leads to inflammatory responses.

CaMKII associates with conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and cardiac arrhythmias. Aberrant CaMKII activity affects proteins like tau and amyloid-beta contributing to neurodegenerative processes. In the heart excessive activation facilitates arrhythmias interacting with ion channels such as L-type calcium channels. P2X7 receptors connect to disorders like chronic pain and inflammation through its role in mediating immune responses. Altered P2X7 function impacts interleukin cytokines linking to autoimmune diseases and chronic inflammatory conditions.
