Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHRP) is expressed in a large number of tumors and is the mediator of parathyroid hormone-like effects seen in humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. The gene coding for PTHRP has been localised to the short arm of chromosome 12. This is at the same region as the
Protein kinase C (PKC) is the target for a number of tumor promoters. The mechanism underlying the promoting effects of bile acids in colorectal cancer is not understood. We report that sodium deoxycholate (DOC) triggered activation of PKC in physiological conditions. The biphasic effects of DOC upo
