Abstract
Ribosomal protein S6 kinase beta-1 (S6K1) is considered a potential target for the treatment of various diseases, such as obesity, type II diabetes, and cancer. Development of novel S6K1 inhibitors is an urgent and important task for the medicinal chemists. In this research, an effective ensemble-based virtual screening method, including common feature pharmacophore model, 3D-QSAR pharmacophore model, naïve Bayes classifier model, and molecular docking, was applied to discover potential S6K1 inhibitors from BioDiversity database with 29,158 compounds. Finally, 7 hits displayed considerable properties and considered as potential inhibitors against S6K1. Further, carefully analyzing the interactions between these 7 hits and key residues in the S6K1 active site, and comparing them with the reference compound PF-4708671, it was found that 2 hits exhibited better binding patterns. In order to further investigate the mechanism of the interactions between 2 hits and S6K1 at simulated physiological conditions, the molecular dynamics simulation was performed. The ΔGbind energies for S6K1-Hit1 and S6K1-Hit2 were - 111.47 ± 1.29 and - 54.29 ± 1.19 kJ mol-1, respectively. Furthermore, deep analysis of these results revealed that Hit1 was the most stable complex, which can stably bind to S6K1 active site, interact with all of the key residues, and induce H1, H2, and M-loop regions changes. Therefore, the identified Hit1 may be a promising lead compound for developing new S6K1 inhibitor for various metabolic diseases treatment.

Abstract
Enhanced responses to vasoconstriction induced by neuropeptide Y and α2-adrenoceptor agonists have been seen following pharmacological activation of the adenylyl cyclase (AC) system. Since preliminary studies revealed only minor responses to angiotensin II (Ang II) in human omental arteries, we have investigated whether enhanced activity of AC may unravel further functional Ang II receptors. Human omental arteries were obtained in conjunction with elective gut surgery. After dissection of the vessel, the endothelium was removed by 10 sec of Triton X-100 treatment. Ring segments (1—2 mm long) were mounted on a myograph and studied. Ang II produced small contractions, 27±5% relative to the response elicited by 60 mM K+. However, enhanced Ang II (105±10%, p<0.001) responses were seen during AC activation by forskolin (0.1—1 µM). This enhanced contractile response to Ang II was not inhibited by the angiotensin II type 2 (AT2-receptor antagonist PD 123319 (0.1 µM), but was blocked in an insurmountable way by the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1)-receptor antagonist candesartan (1 nM) and in a surmountable manner by losartan (0.1 µM) and irbesartan (0.1 µM). Pertussis toxin (a Gi-protein blocker) and the protein kinase C inhibitor, RO31—8220 (0.01, 0.1 and 1 µM), markedly reduced this response, while the protein kinase A inhibitor, H89 (1, 10 µM), had no effect. RT-PCR provided evidence for the presence of mRNA for both AT1- and AT2-receptors. The results suggest that both a cAMP-dependent and a cAMP-independent mechanism are involved in the contractile responses to Ang II in human omental arteries and that both responses are mediated via the AT1-receptor.

A novel perspective and approach to intestinal octreotide absorption: sinomenine-mediated reversible tight junction opening and its molecular mechanism. Int J Mol Sci 2013; 14:12873-92.

Abstract
In this work, we assessed the effects of sinomenine (SN) on intestinal octreotide (OCT) absorption both in Caco-2 cell monolayers and in rats. We also investigated the molecular mechanisms of tight junction (TJ) disruption and recovery by SN-mediated changes in the claudin-1 and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling pathway. The data showed that exposure to SN resulted in a significant decrease in the expression of claudin-1, which represented TJ weakening and paracellular permeability enhancement. Then, the recovery of TJ after SN removal required an increase in claudin-1, which demonstrated the transient and reversible opening for TJ. Meanwhile, the SN-mediated translocation of PKC-α from the cytosol to the membrane was found to prove PKC activation. Finally, SN significantly improved the absolute OCT bioavailability in rats and the transport rate in Caco-2 cell monolayers. We conclude that SN has the ability to enhance intestinal OCT absorption and that these mechanisms are related at least in part to the important role of claudin-1 in SN-mediated, reversible TJ opening via PKC activation.

Abstract
In the rodent cerebellum, pharmacological activation of mGluR4 acutely depresses excitatory synaptic transmission at parallel fibre–Purkinje cell synapses. This depression involves the inhibition of presynaptic calcium (Ca2+) influx that ultimately controls glutamate release. In this study, we investigate the molecular basis of mGluR4-mediated inhibition of presynaptic Ca2+ transients. Our results demonstrate that the mGluR4 effect does not depend on selective inhibition of a specific type of presynaptic voltage-gated Ca2+ channel, but rather involves modulation of all classes of Ca2+ channels present in the presynaptic terminals. In addition, this inhibitory effect does not involve the activation of G protein-activated inwardly rectifying potassium channels, TEA-sensitive potassium channels or two-pore-domain potassium channels. Furthermore, this inhibition does not require pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins, and is independent of any effect on adenylyl cyclases, protein kinase A, mitogen-activated protein kinases or phosphoinositol-3 kinase activity. Interestingly we found that mGluR4 inhibition of presynaptic Ca2+ influx employs a newly defined signalling pathway, notably that involving the activation of phospholipase C and ultimately protein kinase C.

Abstract
Background: Expression of protein kinase C alpha (PKCα) is elevated in prostate cancer (PCa); thus, we have studied whether the development of tumourigenesis in prostate epithelial cell lines modifies the normal pattern of choline (Cho) metabolite release on PKC activation. Methods: Normal and tumourigenic human prostate epithelial cell lines were incubated with [3H]-Cho to label choline phospholipids. Protein kinase C was activated with phorbol ester and blocked with inhibitors. Choline metabolites were resolved by ion-exchange chromatography. Phospholipase D (PLD) activity was measured by transphosphatidylation. Protein expression was detected by western blotting and/or RT–PCR. Choline uptake was measured on cells in monolayers over 60 min. Results: Normal prostate epithelial cell lines principally released phosphocholine (PCho) in contrast to tumourigenic lines, which released Cho. In addition, only with normal cell lines did PKC activation stimulate Cho metabolite release. Protein kinase C alpha expression varied between normal and tumourigenic cell lines but all showed a PKCα link to myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) protein. The five cell lines differed in Cho uptake levels, with normal PNT2C2 line cells showing highest uptake over 60 min incubation. Normal and tumourigenic cell lines expressed mRNA for PLD1 and PLD2, and showed similar levels of basal and PKC-activated PLD activity. Conclusions: The transition to tumourigenesis in prostate epithelial cell lines results in major changes to Cho metabolite release into the medium and PKC signalling to phosphatidylcholine turnover. The changes, which reflect the metabolic and proliferative needs of tumourigenic cells compared with untransformed cells, could be significant for both diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Ribosomal S6 kinase 2 (RSK2) is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a role in human cancer and Coffin-Lowry syndrome and is comprised of two nonidentical kinase domains, each domain with its own ATP-binding site. RSK2 can be inactivated by different types of small organic molecules. Potent RSK2 inhibitors include the two classic bisindole maleimide PKC inhibitors, Ro31-8220 and GF109203X, and the natural product SL0101 that was shown to bind specifically to the ATP pocket of the N-terminal domain (NTD). In this paper, we present an atomic model of the RSK2 NTD (residues 68-323), which was built to simultaneously bind the distinctive molecular scaffolds of SL0101, Ro31-8220, and GF109203X. The RSK2 NTD model was used to identify two novel RSK2 inhibitors from the National Cancer Institute open chemical repository and to develop a preliminary structure-based pharmacophore model.

Abstract
Chitosan has been successfully used as an excipient for trans-epithelial drug delivery systems. It is known to transiently open intercellular tight junctions thus increasing the permeability of an epithelium. In order to investigate the possible role of protein kinases in trans-epithelial delivery, changes in trans-epithelial electrical resistance ('TEER') of epithelial (Caco-2) cell monolayers were assessed in response to chitosan glutamate treatment, in the presence and absence of specific protein kinase inhibitors. Changes in subcellular localisation of the tight junction protein ZO-1 observed by immunofluorescence and western blotting of cellular fractions were also assessed. Inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC), but not mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) was found to prevent the chitosan-mediated decrease in TEER, and changes in localisation of ZO-1. In order to determine which PKC isozymes were responsible for the chitosan-mediated tight junction disruption, the activation of the PKC isozymes alpha, beta and delta was investigated. A chitosan-mediated translocation of PKC alpha but not PKC beta or delta from the cytosol to the membrane fraction, indicative of PKC alpha activation was observed. Thus, treatment of Caco-2 cells with chitosan may result in the activation of PKC-dependent signal transduction pathways which affect tight junction integrity.

Abstract
Epithelial differentiation including tight junction (TJ) formation occurs exclusively within the trophectoderm (TE) lineage of the mouse blastocyst. Here we examine mechanisms by which TJ protein membrane assembly might be regulated by protein kinase C (PKC) in the embryo. To overcome the inherent staging asynchrony of individual blastomeres within intact embryos, we have used isolated inner cell masses (ICMs) from early blastocysts to induce epithelial differentiation in their outer cells responding to their new cell contact pattern. Two TJ proteins examined retain their order of membrane assembly in isolated ICMs in culture as during normal development (early-assembling ZO-2 and late-assembling ZO-1α+), but this process is highly accelerated. Using six chemical modulators of PKC activity, we show here that PKC signalling is involved in the regulation of TJ membrane assembly. While indolactam-mediated PKC activation stimulates membrane assembly of both TJ proteins, TPA-mediated PKC activation stimulates only that of ZO-1α+. The PKC inhibitors Ro-31-8220, Ro-31-8425 and Gö 6983 suppress the stimulatory effect of both PKC activators on membrane assembly to varying extents according to inhibitor and TJ protein examined. Gö 6983 similarly inhibits ZO-2 and ZO-1α+membrane assembly. PKC inhibition by Gö 6976 appeared to stimulate TJ membrane assembly. Despite the broad PKC isotype specificity of the inhibitors used, these data suggest that the two TJ proteins are differently regulated by PKC isotypes or subfamilies. As Gö 6983 uniquely affects aPKC (particularly PKCζ) and we find that both PKCδ and ζ relocate upon activator treatment to colocalise partially with the TJ proteins in isolated ICMs, we suggest that at least PKCδ and ζ may play a central role in regulating TJ membrane assembly.

Abstract
A previous study conducted in rat-1 cells expressing alpha(1A)-adrenergic receptors showed that phenylephrine (PHE) stimulates phospholipase D (PLD) activity. This study was conducted to determine the contribution of protein kinase C (PKC) to PHE-induced PLD activation in these cells. PKC inhibitors bisindolylmaleimide (BIM) I and Ro 31-8220, but not Gö 6976 or a pseudosubstrate peptide inhibitor of PKCalpha, decreased PLD activity and arachidonic acid release elicited by PHE. However, antisense oligonucleotides directed against PKC alpha, delta, epsilon, and eta reduced PKC isoform levels by about 80% but failed to alter PHE-induced PLD activation, indicating that these PKC isoforms are not involved in PLD activation elicited by alpha1A-adrenergic receptor stimulation. Ectopic expression of a kinase-deficient mutant of the PKC-related kinase PKN significantly attenuated PHE-induced PLD activation. On the other hand, BIM I and Ro 31-8220 blocked PHE-mediated increase in intracellular Ca2+ but Gö 6976 and the peptide inhibitor did not. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, PHE failed to increase PLD activity. These results indicate that alpha1A-adrenergic receptor-stimulated PLD activation is mediated by a mechanism independent of PKCalpha, delta, epsilon, and eta, but dependent on a PKC-related kinase, PKN. Moreover, PKC inhibitors BIM I and Ro 31-8220 block PHE-induced PLD activity by inhibiting calcium signal. Caution should be used in interpreting the data obtained with PKC inhibitors in vivo.

Abstract
The effect of protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors on the induction of endothelin ET(B) receptors during organ culture was examined in isolated segments of the rat mesenteric artery. After 24 h of organ culture, the endothelin ET(B) receptor agonist sarafotoxin 6c (S6c) induced a strong contraction compared to fresh segments. The contractile response after 24-h organ culture to S6c was studied in presence (30-min preincubation) or absence, after 24-h treatment, of the PKC inhibitors staurosporine, K252a and Ro31-7549. Exposure to staurosporine or K252a in presence and after 24-h treatment reduced the S6c contraction. In contrast, presence of 2-1[1-3(aminopropyl)indol-3-yl]-3(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)maleimide (Ro31-7549), did not affect the S6c-induced contraction, whereas 24-h treatment abolished the increase of contraction. The PKA inhibitor N-(2-[bromocinnamylamino]-ethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H89) did not affect the S6c responses. The mRNA expressions of endothelin ET(B) receptors (analysed with real-time PCR) were abolished after 24-h treatment with the PKC inhibitors. These results suggest that PKC is involved in the endothelin ET(B) receptor upregulation following organ culture.

Abstract
Human melanoma cells can be reprogrammed to terminally differentiate and irreversibly lose proliferative capacity by appropriate pharmacological manipulation. Subtraction hybridization identified melanoma differentiation-associated gene-5 (mda-5) as a gene induced during differentiation, cancer reversion, and programmed cell death (apoptosis). This gene contains both a caspase recruitment domain and putative DExH group RNA helicase domains. Atypical helicase motifs of MDA-5 deviate from consensus sequences but are well conserved in a potentially new group of cloned and hypothetical proteins. mda-5 is an early response gene inducible by IFN and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, responding predominantly to IFN-beta. Protein kinase C activation by mezerein further augments mda-5 expression induced by IFN-beta. Expression of mda-5 is controlled transcriptionally by IFN-beta, and the MDA-5 protein localizes in the cytoplasm. mda-5 displays RNA-dependent ATPase activity, and ectopic expression of mda-5 in human melanoma cells inhibits colony formation. In these contexts, mda-5 may function as a mediator of IFN-induced growth inhibition and/or apoptosis. MDA-5 is a double-stranded RNA-dependent ATPase that contains both a caspase recruitment domain and RNA helicase motifs, with a confirmed association with growth and differentiation in human melanoma cells.

Abstract
Treatment of [3H]-choline- or [14C]-ethanolamine-labelled undifferentiated bipolar and differentiated multipolar CG-4 line oligodendrocytes with 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) to activate protein kinase C stimulated the release of choline or ethanolamine metabolites to the medium over controls. Ro31-8220, a PKC inhibitor, reduced TPA-stimulated release of choline- and ethanolamine-metabolites to basal levels. TPA treatment of both bipolar and multipolar cells caused rapid contraction of processes leaving rounded up cells: this effect was blocked by Ro31-8220. After 12-15 h exposure to TPA, bipolar undifferentiated CG-4 line cells extended short processes again and the cells became multipolar. Nocodozole, an agent which disrupts microtubules and caused CG-4 line cells to round up, caused increased choline or ethanolamine-metabolite release to the medium over basal levels suggesting that some release during TPA-treatment might occur due to process fragmentation. However, the transphosphatidylation reaction confirmed that phospholipase D was active in these cells. Exposure of bipolar undifferentiated CG-4 line cells to TPA resulted in down-regulatation of PKC-alpha and PKC-beta which could not be detected by Western blotting after a few hours; PKC-epsilon was down-regulated much more slowly but PKCs delta, zeta and iota were not influenced by 48 h exposure of cells to TPA. Formation of phosphatidylethanol in the transphosphatidylation reaction was markedly reduced in TPA down-regulated cells indicating a role for PKCs alpha and beta in phospholipase D activation in CG-4 line oligodendrocytes.
