## Abstract Previous studies have suggested that protein kinase C (PKC) may play an important role in colon carcinogenesis and that human colon tumors have less total PKC enzyme activity than normal tissue. Because PKC is a multigene family that enocodes for at least 11 distinct isofroms, in the st
Colonic mucosa was implanted subcutaneously into nude mice in order to investigate the potential use of xenografts as an in vivo model system for the study of colonic epithelial proliferation and differentiation. The xenografts were followed for 5 weeks. Proliferation was studied by bromodeoxyuridin
## Abstract Phospholipase C (PLC) activity and its response to stimulation by bile acids was assayed in cellular extracts from 16 primary human colon tumors of various Dukeβ²s stages and paired adjacent normal mucosal samples. In the absence of bile acid, there was negligible degradation of phosphat
