Cellular sensitivity to cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(ll) (cDDP) can be regulated by protein kinase C (PKC) signal transduction pathway. Activators of PKC were shown to enhance the sensitivity of human ovarian carcinoma 2008 cells to cDDP. We have examined whether or not the PKC signal transduction p

LIM1215 colon cancer cells were used as a model of human colonic epithelium to examine the effects of butyrate on protein kinase C (PKC) activity and isoform expression. On Western blot analysis, LIM1215 cells express the PKC isoforms β£, β€, , , and , but not β₯, , or . Treatment with 2 mM butyrate fo
## Abstract Recent studies have suggested that protein kinase C (PKC) activation plays an important role in survival of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). In order to characterize the role of PKC in CLL, we investigated the expression pattern of PKC isoforms in CLL cells (7 cases) and evaluated th
## Abstract Overexpression of cyclooxygenaseβ2 (COXβ2) and elevation of its derivative prostaglandin E~2~ (PGE~2~) are implicated in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The expression of cβMyc, an oncogenic transcription factor, is also upregulated in this malignant disease. This study sought
In the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected brain, the virus does not replicate in astrocytes, but a synthesis of viral regulatory proteins occurs in these cells, leading to accumulation of Nef. As an approach to understand the effects of Nef on astrocyte functional activity, we anal
## Abstract Increased myometrial expression of cyclooxygenaseβ2 (Coxβ2) at term results from elevated local levels of inflammatory cytokines, and its inhibition provides a potential route for intervention in human preβterm labor. We have identified a role for atypical protein kinase C (PKC) isozyme
