We have shown that platelet-activating factor (PAF), a weak primary stimulus for neutrophil superoxide generation, synergistically enhances neutrophil oxidative responses to the tumor promoter phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Since PMA is known to cause cytosol-to-membrane shift of calcium-activated
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
The role of protein kinase C activation in changes in muscarinic receptor functions and in the appearance of biochemical properties characteristic of neuronal cells was studied in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells induced to differentiate with the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (
The effects of phorbol esters on Ca 2 + channel currents in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were studied using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings. Bath application of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) or phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (PDBu; 100 nM to 1 #M), known activators of protein kinase C
