## Abstract Using a calpain/protein kinase C (PKC) complex, we were able to reproduce, __in vitro__, the induction of PKC downβregulation by the phorbol ester 12βOβtetradecanoylβphorbolβ13βacetate (TPA) which had been previously observed in cells. We show that TPA initiates this phenomenon by promo
Th1 and Th2 cells, which were induced from naive T cells of TCR-transgenic mice, showed differential sensitivity to activation-induced cell death (AICD) triggered by stimulation with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody. The Th1 cells showed more rapid AICD than Th2 cells. This accelerated AICD of Th1 cells
Protein kinase C and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase are expressed in all smooth muscle cells and believed to be important in several physiologically relevant properties of this muscle. Our goal was to determine if protein kinase C and MAP kinase are activated by a simple increase in cellular
## Abstract Stimulation of chief cells with carbachol or cholecystokinin (CCK) results in the production of inositol trisphosphate (IP~3~) and diacylglycerol (DAG). Although IP~3~ increases cell calcium concentration, thereby stimulating pepsinogen secretion, the role of DAG and its target, protein
