We investigated the function of the Ca 2/ -dependent protein kinase C (PKC) b 1 in the regulation of endothelial barrier property. Human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) were transduced with full-length PKCb 1 antisense (AS) cDNA or control pLNCX vector to generate stable cell lines (

## Abstract The effect of protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors on porcine oocyte activation by calcium ionophore A23187 was studied. Calcium ionophore applied in a 50 Β΅M concentration for 10 min induced activation in 74% of oocytes matured in vitro. When the ionophoreβtreated oocytes were exposed to t
We determined whether activation of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) and a subsequent increase in cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) was an obligatory signaling event mediating the increase in transendothelial permeability induced by bradykinin (BK) and alpha-thrombin (a
Previously we showed a rapid and transient inhibition of gap junctional communication (GJC) by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in T51B rat liver epithelial cells expressing wild-type platelet-derived growth factor b receptors (PDGFrb). This action of PDGF correlated with the hyperphosphorylati
