N-(6-Aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) is known to be a potent calmodulin antagonist and inhibitor of calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. W-7 and 1-(5-isoquinolinyl-sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) are inhibitors of protein kinase C and cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases. In C6 glioma cells, W-7 and not H-7 inhibited dose-dependently acid sphingomyelinase, a result indicating the modulation of this lysosomal enzyme by a calmodulin-dependent system. Other lysosomal enzymes, such as beta-glucosidase, alpha-galactosidase, and arylsulfatase A, were unaffected by W-7 and H-7, a finding indicating a selective effect of W-7 on sphingomyelinase.
