Protein kinase C (PKC) comprises a family of related phospholipid-dependent serine/threonine protein kinases. PKC is important in signal transduction, regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. Recently, it has also been suggested that PKC may play a part in the pathogenesis of contact derma

## Abstract Using a calpain/protein kinase C (PKC) complex, we were able to reproduce, __in vitro__, the induction of PKC downβregulation by the phorbol ester 12βOβtetradecanoylβphorbolβ13βacetate (TPA) which had been previously observed in cells. We show that TPA initiates this phenomenon by promo
The effect of mutated c-Ha-ras expression on Caz+ and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) activity during the process of transformation was analysed using an inducible metallothionein-ras hybrid oncogene system. A close correlation was found between the timing of ras expression and the los
We have previously identified expression of multiple protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms in insulinomaderived beta-cells and whole islets. Both PKC 6 and PKC a appear to be the more abundantly expressed isoforms. in this report we studied the effects of arachidonic acid (AA) on the subcellular distribut
Previous studies utilizing cell-permeant inhibitors and intracellular delivery of anti-PKC antibodies and active enzyme have indicated that inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) promotes the initial stage(s) of neurite elaboration, while PKC activation inhibits and reverses this phenomenon. In the pr
