Y-27632 is a biochemical tool used in the study of the rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) signaling pathways.[1] Y-27632 selectively inhibits p160ROCK, although it does inhibit other protein kinases such as PKCs at higher concentrations.[2]

It has been studied for its effects on corneal endothelial cells (CECs) [3] and cardiac stem cells (CSCs).[4]
