Cardiac actions of protein kinase C isoforms.
Protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms have emerged as important regulators of cardiac contraction, hypertrophy, and signaling pathways that influence ischemic/reperfusion injury. This review focuses on newer concepts regarding PKC isoform-specific activation mechanisms and actions that have implications for the development of PKC-targeted therapeutics.
متن کاملLineage-restricted expression of protein kinase C isoforms in hematopoiesis.
The pattern of expression of several protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms (alpha, betaI, delta, epsilon, eta, and zeta) during the course of hematopoietic development was investigated using primary human CD34(+) hematopoietic cells and stable cell lines subcloned from the growth factor-dependent 32D murine hematopoietic cell line. Each 32D cell clone shows the phenotype and growth factor dependence ...
متن کاملInvolvement of Subtypes γ and ∊ of Protein Kinase C in Colon Pain Induced by Formalin Injection
Protein kinase C (PKC) has been widely reported to participate in somatic pain; however, its role in visceral pain remains largely unclear. Using a colon inflammatory pain model by intracolonic injection of formalin in rats, the present study was to examine the role of PKC in visceral pain and determine which subtypes may be involved. The colon pain behavior induced by formalin injection could ...
متن کاملNuclear protein kinase C isoforms: key players in multiple cell functions?
Protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes are a family of serine/threonine protein kinases categorized into three subfamilies: classical, novel, and atypical. PKC isozymes, whose expression is cell type-specific and developmentally regulated, are key transducers in many agonist-induced signaling cascades. To date at least 10 different PKC isotypes have been identified and are believed to play distinct re...
متن کاملAltered Protein Kinase C (PKC) Isoforms in Non-Small Cell
Drugs that target protein kinase C (PKC) are now being evaluated in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the role of PKC in NSCLC cells remains unclear. We report here that NSCLC cell lines show enhanced phosphorylation and altered expression of specific PKC isoforms compared with normal lung epithelial cells. PKC inhibition variably increased apoptosis, with rottlerin, a PKC i...
