## Abstract The phorbol ester, 12β__O__βtetradecanoylphorbolβ13βacetate (TPA), is a potent inhibitor of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC). This inhibition requires activation of protein kinase C (PKC), but the events downstream of this kinase are not known. Since PKC can activate ex
Many nongenotoxic hepatocarcinogens can induce cell proliferation, and inhibit apoptosis and gap-junctional-intercellular communication (GJIC). GJIC, the movement of small molecules (less than 1.2 kD) through membrane channels, is important in regulating cellular homeostasis and differentiation. The
