The phorbol ester tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and the calcium ionophore, A23187, have similar effects on many different cells. For example, both show mitogenic and comitogenic activities for lymphocytes. It had been suggested that some of TPA's effects are due to its ab
