Abstract
We have previously observed major differences in the phosphorylation of membrane proteins in sparse, proliferating versus confluent, quiescent pig aortic endothelial cells (EC) (Kazlauskas and DiCorleto, 1987). In the present study we examined whether EC growth state can influence the activity of a specific phosphorylating enzyme, protein kinase C (PKC) in cytosolic and membrane fractions of pig aortic EC. Levels of PKC were measured using two methods: 1) Ca2+ and phospholipid-dependent phosphorylation of exogenous histones using gamma-labeled [32P]ATP, and 2) [3H]phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) binding activity. The total amount of PKC activity in the quiescent versus proliferating cells was similar but the percentage of PKC activity in the membrane fraction correlated with the proliferative index of the cells: confluent, quiescent cultures exhibited a majority of PKC activity in the cytosolic fraction (67%), whereas sparse, proliferating cultures contained principally membrane-bound PKC (70%). We also examined the role of PKC in the mitogenic response of pig aortic EC to fetal calf serum. Following serum stimulation of sparse, serum-deprived pig aortic EC, PKC activity redistributed from the cytosolic to the membrane fraction in a rapid process that correlated with subsequent DNA synthesis. A potent activator of PKC, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), induced a minimal mitogenic response in pig aortic EC when added alone but acted synergistically with low concentrations of fetal calf serum to greatly stimulate DNA synthesis. Furthermore, pig aortic EC treated with TPA for 24 h to down-regulate PKC exhibited only 25% of the serum-stimulated mitogenic activity of control cultures. These results suggest a role for PKC activation and translocation in the proliferation of pig aortic EC.

Abstract
Cultured rat pituitary cells were used to examine, first, the effects of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone, Ca2+ mobilization, protein kinase C (PKC) activation, and arachidonic acid (AA) on luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion and AA release, and, second, gonadal steroid modulation of these effects. A23187, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), and AA stimulated LH secretion by both perifused and static cultures; TPA facilitated the responses to both A23187 and AA. LHRH, A23187, and TPA stimulated AA release. Inhibition of AA metabolism reduced the LH responses to LHRH, A23187, TPA, and melittin. Pretreatment with testosterone inhibited the LH response to LHRH but not the responses to TPA or AA. Pretreatment with 17 beta-estradiol stimulated the LH responses to LHRH, TPA, and low concentrations of AA. These results suggest that LHRH action involves a cascade of events, in which the effects of Ca2+ mobilization and PKC activation are mediated at least in part by AA release. They further suggest that both testosterone and 17 beta-estradiol modulate LH secretion by affecting AA release; 17 beta-estradiol may also affect some process subsequent to AA release.

Abstract
Staurosporine induced the association of purified protein kinase C (PKC) with inside-out vesicles from erythrocyte membranes. This effect was Ca2+ and concentration dependent, and maximum PKC translocation was observed at 50 nM staurosporine and 0.5 microM Ca2+, or higher. A significant effect of staurosporine was already obtained at free Ca2+ concentrations in the range found in resting cells. Under these conditions, the PKC activator 4-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate was by itself inactive, but enhanced translocation by staurosporine. Protein phosphorylation by staurosporine-translocated PKC was inhibited in the presence or absence of phorbol esters. Translocation and inhibition of PKC occurred in the same staurosporine concentration range.

Abstract
Using the whole-cell variation of the patch-clamp technique, we have demonstrated that retinoic acid (RA) blocks Ca channels and inhibits cell proliferation in a mouse hybridoma cell line (MHY206) derived from a fusion of murine myeloma and splenic B cells. In 25 mM external Ca, and with an Na internal solution containing aspartate, cAMP, and Mg-ATP, inward currents were activated in these cells from holding potentials more negative than -70 mV, peaked at voltage steps up to -20 mV, and were voltage-inactivated within the 125-msec duration of the pulse. With more positive pulses, outward current carried by Na ions permeating through the Ca channels were seen. Application of RA blocked both inward and outward current through the Ca channels in a dose-dependent manner, with 50% block at a concentration of around 5 x 10(-5) M. Proliferation was blocked by 75% at that concentration, and the same relation between the reduction in current and proliferation was seen throughout the concentration range. A similar reduction of Ca currents and proliferation was demonstrated with octanol, a long-chain alcohol that has recently been reported to block Ca channels. These results suggest a role for Ca channels in the proliferation of MHY206 cells and implicate blockage of these channels as contributing to the antiproliferative activity of RA.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) directly enhanced luteinizing hormone (LH) release from dispersed rat pituitary cells in monolayer cultures as well as in superfusion columns. This 2.3-fold stimulatory effect was dose and time dependent and was also reconfirmed in a superfusion system. Retinal, a protein kinase C inhibitor, counteracted the EGF effect only partially. Further experiments were therefore carried out to investigate alternate EGF mechanisms. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid and chloroquine suppressed the stimulatory effect of EGF in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, EGF (10(-7) M) stimulated [3H]arachidonate release from pre-labelled rat pituitary cells. This indicates that phospholipase A2 and arachidonic acid may be involved in EGF action on LH release from rat pituicytes.

Abstract
The effects of various protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors on NADPH oxidase (NO) activation by the phorbol ester PMA and by the chemotactic peptide FMLP were studied. H-7 reduced the effects of both stimuli in human neutrophils (HN) and HL-60 cells by 13-63%. Polymyxin B did not inhibit NO activation by PMA and FMLP in HN and reduced the effects of both stimuli in HL-60 cells by 27-55%. Retinal and retinoic acid enhanced the effects of PMA and FMLP in HL-60 cells and of FMLP in HN up to 4.5-fold. In contrast, retinoic acid inhibited the effect of PMA in HN. In the presence of cytochalasin B, retinal inhibited the effect of FMLP in HN, whereas retinoic acid inhibited NO activation by FMLP in both cell types. The dual PKC/calmodulin inhibitors trifluoperazine and W-7 abolished NO activation by PMA and FMLP in HN and HL-60 cells. Thus, the effects of PKC inhibitors on NO activation exhibit (1) cell type specificity, (2) stimulus dependency and (3) no correlation with in vitro inhibition of PKC. Our results suggest that studies with PKC inhibitors presently available cannot clarify the role of PKC in NO activation.

Abstract
The distribution of calcium-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) in supernatant and particulate fractions of primary cultures of rat astrocytes and its translocation by a phorbol ester were studied. We observed that 91% of protein kinase C activity in astrocytes was in the supernatant fraction, as measured by lysine-rich histone phosphorylation assay. Attempts to uncover latent activity in the particulate fraction were unsuccessful. Approximately 75% of the supernatant protein kinase C activity could be translocated to the particulate fraction by prior treatment (30-60 min) of the cultures with 100 nM 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol 13-acetate (TPA), but not with 4 alpha-phorbol, an inactive phorbol ester. Investigation of endogenous substrates for protein kinase C showed that TPA treatment brought about an increase in phosphorylation in membrane proteins and a decrease in phosphorylation of supernatant proteins. These findings indicate that the distribution of protein kinase C in astrocytes differs substantially from that in whole brain tissue, where approximately two-thirds of the protein kinase C activity is associated with the particulate fraction. Because protein kinase C is concentrated in the cytosol of astrocytes and most of this activity can be translocated to membranes, astrocytes may be particularly well-suited to respond to signals that activate phosphoinositide-linked receptors in brain.

Abstract
We studied the subcellular distribution of protein kinase C (PKC) in the particulate and cytosolic fractions of rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-1) cells treated with leukotriene D4 (LTD4) and compared these results with those of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Consistent with the earlier reports, treatment of RBL-1 cells with PMA resulted in a time- and dose-dependent translocation of PKC from cytosolic to the particulate fractions, sustained for at least 10 min. When RBL-1 cells were treated with LTD4, a small, transient decrease in PKC activity in cytosolic fraction was observed within 7.5 s after LTD4 treatment. This was accompanied by a significant increase of PKC in the particulate fraction. However, at 15 and 30 s, both particulate and cytosolic PKC activities were increased with LTD4 treatment. The activation induced by LTD4 was dose- and time-dependent with maximal effects occurring within 30 s, declining at the later time points. Pretreatment of the cells with 2(R)-hydroxy-3(S)-carboxyethylthio-3-[2-(8-phenyloctyl,pheny l]propanoic acid (SK&F 104353), a high affinity specific LTD4 receptor antagonist, and also with staurosporine, a potent inhibitor of PKC, completely inhibited the LTD4-induced activation of PKC both in the particulate and cytosolic fractions. These results suggest that activation of PKC by LTD4 is different from that elicited by PMA. The ability of SK&F 104353 to block LTD4-induced activation of PKC further suggests that stimulation of PKC might be an important intermediate step in the signal transduction mechanism of the LTD4 receptor in RBL-1 cells.

Abstract
Exposure of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells to phorbol esters such as 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) results in a dose-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation. One of the earliest biochemical events induced by TPA is the translocation of protein kinase C from the cytosolic to the particulate compartment. We have investigated the effects of permeant diacylglycerol 1,2-dioctanoyl-glycerol (diC8) on both protein kinase C activity and MCF-7 cell proliferation. DiC8 induces a discrete but significant translocation of protein kinase C within the first minutes of MCF-7 cell treatment (26 +/- 6%, mean +/- SD of 5 different experiments, upon 5 min incubation in the presence of 43 micrograms/ml diC8). However, this effect is only transient as the enzymatic activity returns to the control value after 60 min. DiC8 mimics the effect of TPA on MCF-7 cell proliferation. The dose-response curves for both protein kinase C translocation and cell growth inhibition show that diC8 exerts its effects on both parameters in the same range of concentrations, despite some discrepancies at the lowest doses. We also report that long-term treatment of the cells with diC8 does not lead to the protein kinase C disappearance observed during prolonged exposure to TPA. All together, our results reinforce the hypothesis of a negative modulatory role of protein kinase C in MCF-7 cell proliferation and suggest that the enzyme translocation but not its down-regulation could be a pre-requisite in the biological cell response.

Abstract
Calf spleen profilin is shown to be an in vitro substrate of purified human placental protein kinase C (PKC), with an apparent Km of 4 microM. Phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) was an effective activator of the profilin phosphorylation by PKC and caused a maximum 13-fold increase of Vmax with a half maximal effect at 40 micrograms/ml. The action of PIP2 was not mimicked by phosphatidylserine, phosphatidic acid or phosphatidylinositol, whereas phosphatidylinositol monophosphate was slightly stimulatory. By contrast, protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation of histone type III-S, myelin basic protein or lipocortin-I was not affected by PIP. It is suggested that PIP2 modifies the nature of the profilin-PKC interactions.

Abstract
1. Protein kinase C (PK-C) from the rat parotid gland has been partially purified and characterized for the first time. During its purification, this enzyme exhibited the same chromatographic behavior as the rat brain enzyme. 2. Affinities for phosphatidylserine (3 micrograms/ml), ATP (8 microM) and calcium (8 microM) were determined kinetically and found to be similar for the enzymes from each tissue. 3. Experiments designed to detect agonist-stimulated translocation of PK-C activity during phosphatidylinositol turnover found no change in levels of soluble PK-C, suggesting that PK-C translocation may not be an obligatory correlate of its activation. The implications of this result are discussed.

Abstract
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) has specific receptor sites in rat Leydig cells and has direct effects on their steroidogenesis. The purpose of the present study was to examine whether activation of the calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PK-C) is involved in GnRH effects on rat Leydig cells, as has been shown in pituitary gonadotrophs. Testosterone production of Percoll-purified Leydig cells was similarly stimulated (about 50-100%) by a GnRH agonist (buserelin, maximum effect at concentration of 10(-9) mol/l and above) and a tumor promoting phorbol ester, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA, maximum effect at 10(-8) mol/l), which is known to activate PK-C. In contrast, a GnRH antagonist (10(-5) mol/l) and an inactive phorbol ester, 4 alpha-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate (10(-6) mol/l), were without effect on testosterone. None of these substances had clear effects on cAMP production. The maximum steroidogenic effects of GnRH agonist and TPA were the same whether used separately or together, suggesting that they share a common mechanism of action. TPA translocated the cytosolic proportion of Leydig cell PK-C activity to a membrane-associated form almost instantaneously, within 0.5-1 min. A similar translocation, though less complete, was observed in the presence of buserelin in 1-4 min. Inclusion of a 100-fold excess of a potent GnRH antagonist completely prevented the translocation of PK-C. These results provide evidence that GnRH agonist activates PK-C also in the testis tissue, and this may be the mechanism whereby it affects Leydig cell endocrine function.

Abstract
Treatment of rats in vivo with ACTH provoked increases in whole adrenal contents of phosphatidylinositol and diacylglycerol. Concomitantly, C-kinase activity decreased in cytosol and increased stoichiometrically in the membrane fraction. It appears that the de novo phospholipid synthesis effect of ACTH is accompanied by increases in diacylglycerol and translocative activation of the C-kinase system.

Abstract
The feedback regulatory control mechanism exerted by activated Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein C kinase upon gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) binding, stimulation of phosphoinositide turnover and gonadotropin secretion was investigated in cultured pituitary cells. Addition of the tumor promoter phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), at concentrations which activate pituitary protein C kinase, to cultured pituitary cells resulted in up-regulation of GnRH receptors (155% at 4 h). The stimulatory effect of GnRH on [3H]inositol phosphates (Ins-P) production in myo-[2-3H]inositol prelabeled pituitary cells was not inhibited by prior treatment of the cells with TPA (10(-9)-10(-7) M). Higher concentrations of TPA (10(-6)-10(-5) M) inhibited the effect of GnRH on [3H]Ins-P production. Increasing concentrations of TPA or the permeable analog of diacylglycerol 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG) stimulated luteinizing hormone (LH) release from cultured pituitary cells with ED50 values of 5 x 10(-9) M and 10 micrograms/ml, respectively. No consistent inhibition or additivity of LH release was observed when increasing doses of TPA or OAG were added with a submaximal dose of GnRH. These results suggest that protein C kinase might mediate the known homologous up-regulation of GnRH receptors during the reproductive cycle. Protein C kinase is positively involved in mediating the process of gonadotropin secretion. Unlike many other systems, activation of protein C kinase in pituitary gonadotrophs is not involved in negative feed-back regulation of stimulus-secretion-coupling mechanisms in GnRH-stimulated gonadotrophs.

Abstract
The phorbol ester, TPA, induced the intracellular redistribution of protein kinase C in intact thyroid cells; it caused within 5 min of incubation a 90% decrease of the cytosolic protein kinase C and an increase of the membrane-associated enzyme activity which appeared to be fully activated by TPA. TSH at concentrations which gave the maximal stimulation on various parameters of iodine metabolism induced the translocation of only 10-15% of protein kinase C from the cytosol to the membrane fraction. TPA induced a 2-fold increase in the incorporation of [32P]phosphate into cellular proteins and selectively activated the phosphorylation of two molecular species: a 180,000 Da protein and to a lesser extent a 170,000 Da protein in dispersed pig thyroid cells prelabeled with [32P]orthophosphate. The effect of TPA was maximum after 5 min of incubation and was concentration-dependent between 1 nM and 1 microM. The two phosphorylated substrates were only found in the cytosolic fraction. The TPA-induced phosphorylation of the 180,000 Da protein was observed in thyroid cells in suspension, in thyroid cell monolayers and follicle-like reassociated cells. In these three experimental situations, the 180,000 Da protein was not phosphorylated in response to TSH. Incubation of thyroid cell cytosolic fraction in the presence of [32P]ATP with calcium and phospholipid led to the phosphorylation of few proteins among which a 180,000 Da component. These proteins were not phosphorylated in the cytosol of TPA-treated cells, a finding in agreement with the translocation of protein kinase C. These results indicate that (1) the activation-translocation of thyroid protein kinase C induced by TPA is associated with the phosphorylation of selective substrates, and (2) TSH, even at high concentration, failed to exert the same action as TPA on protein kinase C in pig thyroid cells.

Abstract
Calcium/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase activity (protein kinase C) was identified in rat diaphragm membrane and cytosol fractions by means of in vitro phosphorylation either of histones or of a specific 87 kDa protein substrate, combined with phosphopeptide-mapping techniques. Both insulin and tumor-promoting phorbol ester treatment of the diaphragm preparations led to increased protein kinase C activity in the membrane fractions. In contrast to the phorbol ester, however, insulin did not induce a concomitant decrease in cytosolic activity, indicating that translocation of the enzyme had not taken place. Thus, insulin appears to increase specifically membrane protein kinase C activity in rat skeletal muscle, possibly through a mechanism not identical to that induced by phorbol esters.

Abstract
The application of hexadecane on animals skin induces hyperkeratinization and hyperplasia of the epidermis, however, the initial mechanisms of the epidermal cell proliferation and keratinization by hexadecane stimulation remains unknown. Protein kinase C is reported to be one of the critical enzymes involved in proliferation and differentiation of various cells and tissues. Therefore we investigated the effects of hexadecane on protein kinase C in pig epidermis. Protein kinase C activity of the pig skin increased 10 min after topical application of hexadecane to the back of the pig, normalized at 30 min, and subsequently kept falling for 24 h. In studying hexadecane dropped on floating sliced pig skin in Krebs buffer, similar results were obtained for the short term. Immediately after the hexadecane treatment, protein kinase C activity was not altered as compared with that of the untreated skin. Thus, the alteration of the protein kinase C activity after the hexadecane treatment is not due to the direct effect of hexadecane on the enzyme, but is due to other as yet unknown mechanisms of epidermal cell kinetics in response to hexadecane stimulation. We discuss the mechanisms of protein kinase C activity alteration upon treatment with hexadecane.

Abstract
Human histiocytic lymphoma cells (U-937) undergo similar differentiation when incubated with the phorbol ester 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol. In this action, TPA somehow implicates calcium-sensitive and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C), which is rapidly and significantly affected by this inducer. On the contrary, 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol in its differentiating action does not involve protein kinase C thus suggesting that the secosteroid induces monocytic differentiation possible through a different mechanism of that of phorbol ester.

Abstract
Calpains 1 and 2 co-eluted with protein kinase C activities after hydrophobic (phenyl-Sepharose) and anion-exchange (Mono Q) chromatographies of a 100,000 X g supernatant which was defined as cytosol. After centrifugation of the cytosol at 200,000 X g for 16 h, the major part of calpain 1 and of its associated protein kinase C activity was recovered in the pellet, when the major part of calpain 2, also associated to a protein kinase C activity, was present in the resulting supernatant. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the fractions eluted from the Mono Q column, which contained calpains 1 or 2 and their associated protein kinase C activities, revealed two main bands with a molecular mass of 80 and 28 kDa.

Abstract
Addition of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) in vitro (10(-5) -5 X 10(-9) M) to murine pituitary membranes resulted in a dose-related decrease in Ca2+-ATPase activity within 15 min. Inhibitory effects of LHRH (10(-7) M) occurred after 90 sec, and appeared maximal by 120 sec. Eadie-Hofstee analysis at 10(-7) M LHRH, at varying [Ca2+]free, resulted in a Km = 0.89 +/- 0.06 microM and a Vmax = 18.8 +/- 0.71 nmol/mg per 2 min, compared to a Km = 0.69 +/- 0.06 microM and a Vmax = 32.8 +/- 1.21 nmol/mg per 2 min for controls. Pre-incubation for 5 min with LHRH antagonist (10(-8) M) significantly attenuated (50%) the inhibitory effects of 10(-7) M LHRH on pituitary Ca2+ ATPase activity with a Km = 0.97 +/- 0.24 microM and a Vmax = 28.1 +/- 2.8 nmol/mg per 2 min. The addition of LHRH (10(-7) M) to pituitary homogenates significantly increased luteinizing hormone (LH) release already at 10 and up to 40 sec compared to basal LH release. Systemic administration of 50 ng LHRH (i.p.), significantly (P less than 0.05) reduced pituitary Ca2+-ATPase after 30, 60 and 90 min, with a return to control levels by 120 min. Pituitary LH content was reduced slightly at 15 min, but was increased significantly at 90 and 120 min post-treatment. Plasma LH levels were elevated by 5 min, reached a peak by 15 min and returned to control within 60 min. The present findings indicate that LHRH receptor activation may influence cytosolic Ca2+ transport through effects on membrane Ca2+-ATPase activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Gonadotropin release in rat pituitary monolayer cultures was stimulated by phospholipase A2, as well as by its activator melittin. A dose-dependent stimulation of luteinizing hormone secretion by melittin was observed in a dose range of 10(-8) to 10(-4) M. A higher dose (1 mM) melittin had a sub-optimal effect. The stimulatory action of melittin was calcium-dependent and blocked by phospholipase A2 inhibitors, chloroquine and quinacrine. Similar to melittin, phospholipase A2 enhanced the effect of LH release in a dose range of 0.1-100 units/ml. The effect of this enzyme was also calcium-dependent with optimal calcium concentrations at 1.5 mM, as obtained also for melittin. In superfusion experiments, the stimulatory action of melittin and phospholipase A2 was reproducible in their effects on LH release in gonadotrophs. In addition, melittin (10(-7) M) stimulated LH and 3H-arachidonic acid efflux in superfused pituicytes following prelabelling with radiolabelled arachidonate. These data suggest that phospholipase A2, which releases arachidonic acid from phospholipids, may participate in controlling gonadotropin secretion in gonadotrophs, since arachidonic acid and its metabolites have previously been found to enhance gonadotropin release.

Abstract
We examined phospholipid/calcium-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase C) activity and amylase secretion in isolated pancreatic acinar cells, when exposed to caerulein or carbachol. Upon stimulation with 10(-10) M caerulein or 10(-6) M carbachol cytosolic protein kinase C activity was increased in accordance with amylase secretion. Effect of carbachol on increase in membrane-associated protein kinase C activity was maximal at 10(-6) M where the rate of amylase secretion was highest. On the other hand, caerulein showed the maximal secretion of amylase at 10(-9) M, but the activity of the protein kinase C associated with membranes increased progressively with increasing concentration of caerulein. These results indicate different profiles of redistribution of protein kinase C upon stimulation of pancreatic acinar cells with carbachol or caerulein, and they were discussed in terms of amylase secretion.

Abstract
Monolayer cell cultures of female rat anterior pituitaries were used to investigate the effect of leukotrienes (LT) LTA4, LTB4, LTC4, LTD4, LTE4 and other lipoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid (5-HETE, 5-HPETE, and 15-HETE) in vitro. 3H-arachidonic acid was rapidly incorporated into pituicytes and its release was enhanced by gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) in superfused pituitary cells. Leukotrienes were found to be very potent stimulators of the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) when added as pulses to superfused pituicytes. At equimolar concentrations, LTA4, LTB4, LTC4 and LTE4 were found to be more potent than the physiological stimulus GnRH. LTD4 did not affect gonadotropin secretion. Other lipoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid, such as 5-HETE, 5-HPETE and 15-HETE were less effective on the exocytosis of LH. These results suggest that leukotrienes are potential mediators of GnRH action on gonadotropin secretion and are possible sites of regulation of pituitary function.

Abstract
Three types of agonists; receptor-mediated concanavalin A), direct (phorbol ester), and membrane-perturbing (compound 48/80), elicit histamine secretion from rat peritoneal mast cells. We tested whether activation of the mast cells by these agents is accompanied by subcellular redistribution of protein kinase C. Phorbol ester treatment predictably caused a profound decrease of phospholipid/Ca2+-dependent histone kinase activity in the cytosol and a concomitant increase of [3H]PMA-binding capacity in the membrane fraction, in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Similar, but less marked effects were observed with stimulations by concanavalin A and compound 48/80. When mast cells labeled with [32P] and then stimulated with the agents, phosphorylation of a 50,000-Dalton protein was enhanced in the membrane fraction. These results suggest that protein kinase C may play a role in mast cell activation through phosphorylation of the membrane protein.

Abstract
Ecdysteroid-producing Y-organs from the crab Cancer antennarius were shown to possess enzyme activity that was stimulated in vitro by addition of Ca2+, phosphatidylserine, or the protein kinase C activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; ED50, 4 nM). In the presence of calcium and phosphatidylserine, PMA increased protein kinase C activity dose-dependently to a maximum 4-fold increase at 100 nM PMA. Stimulated protein kinase C activity was unaffected by calmodulin (100 nM) but was inhibited by 100 nM trifluoperazine. Pretreatment of cultured Y-organ segments with PMA elevated basal protein kinase C activity, whereas molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH) and calcium ionophore A23187 did not affect activity. PMA (1-100 nM) increased Y-organ steroidogenesis dose-dependently and alleviated suppression due to MIH or lysine vasopressin; PMA effects on steroidogenesis became evident after 2 h of incubation. Another phorbol activator of protein kinase C (phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate) and a permeable synthetic diacylglycerol (1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol) stimulated ecdysteroidogenesis while an inactive phorbol (4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate) and diolein were ineffective. The inhibitory effects on steroidogenesis of cholera toxin, forskolin, dibutyryl cAMP, and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine were countered by PMA, but PMA did not alter basal or peptide hormone-stimulated Y-organ cAMP levels. Stimulatory effects on steroidogenesis of PMA and of A23187 were not additive, and PMA did not alter inhibition caused by lanthanum (calcium channel blocker) or trifluoperazine (calmodulin inhibitor). PMA increased the incorporation of [3H]leucine into Y-organ protein by 112%, and countered the suppressive effect of MIH on protein synthesis; PMA did not affect RNA synthesis. When Y-organs were suppressed with cycloheximide, PMA was unable to stimulate steroidogenesis. Actinomycin D alone had no effect on steroidogenesis but prevented stimulation by PMA. The results indicate that Y-organs contain protein kinase C activity which stimulates ecdysteroid production and protein synthesis by a mechanism not directly interactive with the cAMP or Ca2+-calmodulin systems.

Abstract
The Ca2+/phosphatidylserine-stimulated protein kinase C (PKC) appears to exist as interconvertible inactive, soluble and active, membrane-bound forms. Changes in the bimodal distribution of PKC induced by diacylglycerol or tumor-promoting phorbol esters have been proposed to regulate the activity of this kinase [Nishizuka, Y. (1984) Nature (London) 308, 693-698]. A rapid microassay for assessment of protein kinase C translocation between cytosol and membranes was developed. This procedure, which relied on the selective digitonin-mediated release of cytoplasmic proteins, eliminated potential homogenization and fractionation artifacts. PKC activity toward histone H1 was determined after limited trypsinolysis, which abolished the Ca2+/phospholipid requirement of the enzyme and prevented interference by inhibitory proteins. Complete translocation of PKC to the membrane fraction and subsequent down-regulation of the kinase in response to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate treatment of Swiss 3T3 cells could be demonstrated by this method. Platelet-derived growth factor, insulin-like growth factor 1, vasopressin, and prostaglandin F2 alpha facilitated partial conversions of PKC to the membrane-bound form in quiescent 3T3 cells.

Abstract
When isolated adult oligodendrocytes adhere to a substratum myelinogenesis occurs. Investigation of the mechanism by which this happens indicated that the oligodendrocyte-substratum interaction activated protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation of myelin basic protein and promoted the synthesis of myelin basic protein. In addition, when agents that activate protein kinase C (second messenger diacylglycerol or a tumor-promoting phorbol ester) were added to nonattached oligodendrocytes, they mimicked the influence of the substratum by inducing phosphorylation of myelin basic protein; and reagents that increase cellular adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) inhibited phosphorylation of myelin basic protein. Thus, at least in vitro, the interaction between oligodendrocytes and the substratum may mediate myelinogenic events, and phosphorylation of myelin basic protein may be an early requirement in the sequence of steps that ultimately results in myelin formation.

Abstract
Activation of monocytes and neutrophils results in an increased production of superoxide, an important cytotoxic compound. The previous finding that two agents that induce superoxide production cause opposite translocation of kinase C (Costa-Casnellie et al. [1985] Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 133:1139-1144). led us to study the role of kinase C in superoxide production. In monocytes induction of superoxide production by 13-tetradecanoate phorbol acetate requires translocation of kinase C from the cytosol to the membrane. Superoxide production is also induced by concanavalin A, but this induction is accompanied by a shift of kinase C from the membrane to the cytosol. Superoxide production by concanavalin A is greatly augmented by cytochalasin B. During activation by Con A and cytochalasin B the membrane kinase C is translocated to the cytosol in a manner similar to that observed in the presence of Con A alone. Under these conditions approximately 5-10% of kinase C remains associated with the membrane. Thus, induction of superoxide production by concanavalin A is independent of the levels of kinase C tightly bound to the membrane. We also show evidence that the concanavalin A-induced release of kinase C from the membrane is not due to an increase in levels of intracellular calcium or increased phosphoinositide turnover. In summary, these data indicate that concanavalin A and phorbol ester-induced superoxide production by human monocytes occurs by distinct pathways and that superoxide production is not closely correlated with specific levels of membrane-associated kinase C activity.

Abstract
The effects of A23187 and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) on the phosphorylation of proteins in normal rat anterior pituitary cells were compared. A23187 rapidly activated the phosphorylation of at least 5 proteins (45, 47, 53, 54 and 58 kDa), which reached the maximal level in 2-10 min, and decreased gradually thereafter. In contrast, TPA activated the phosphorylation of at least 6 proteins (45, 62, 64, 72, 76 and 82 kDa), which were mostly distinguished from those activated by A23187. TPA-induced response was elicited more slowly, reached a plateau after about 10 min, and was sustained thereafter. These results suggest that the protein phosphorylation stimulated by A23187 and TPA is conducted by different mechanisms.

Abstract
In vivo administration of TCDD produces an increase in the level of Protein Kinase C in the hepatic plasma membrane. We have studied the direct effects of TCDD on cultured EL4 thymoma cells, which contain a large amount of Protein Kinase C and respond to phorbol esters with rapid translocation of the kinase to the membrane, followed by growth inhibition, adherence to substrate and production of interleukin 2. TCDD (10-1000 nM) did not compete with 3H-phorbol dibutyrate for binding to cytosolic Protein Kinase C, and had no effect on Protein Kinase C activity in vitro. TCDD did not stimulate translocation of Protein Kinase C to the membrane, and did not affect phorbol ester-stimulated translocation. TCDD did not inhibit EL4 cell growth or affect phorbol ester induced growth inhibition, and failed to stimulate production of interleukin 2. Thus, TCDD does not appear to activate Protein Kinase C in EL4 cells.
