## Abstract Peritubular smooth muscle cells (PSMC) from rat testis in primary serumβfree cultures unexpectedly undergo contraction and subsequent cell hypertrophy in response to the growth factor PDGFβBB, remaining stationary. The present study investigates the transduction pathways involved in the
The signaling mechanisms leading to phorbol ester myristate (PMA)-induced differentiation of HL-60 cells to the macrophagelike phenotype were investigated by using different protein kinase inhibitors. The protein kinase C inhibitor Ro 31-8220 specifically blocks PMA-induced differentiation, activati
