Combining in situ radioligand binding with autoradiography, we previously identified a reduction of [(3)H]phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate binding in the parahippocampal gyrus from schizophrenic subjects. To determine whether these changes were due to decreases in the level of protein kinase C, we measured [(3)H]phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate binding, levels of the protein kinase C isoforms alpha, beta, delta, epsilon, gamma, eta and theta, as well as protein kinase C activity in crude particulate membranes from parahippocampal gyri of 15 schizophrenic and 15 control subjects. There was a significant decrease in the density (mean +/- SEM: 6.56 +/- 0.73 pmol mg(-1) vs 9.68 +/- 1.22 pmol mg(-1); P < 0.05) and affinity (mean K(D) +/- SEM: 4.64 +/- 0.34 nM vs 2.95 +/- 0.35 nM; P < 0.005) of [(3)H]phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate binding in homogenates from schizophrenic subjects. There were no significant changes in levels of the protein kinase C isoforms which are known to bind phorbol esters or in the activity of protein kinase C in membranes from schizophrenic subjects. These results suggest that there are changes in molecules capable of binding [(3)H]phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, other than protein kinase C, in the parahippocampal gyrus from subjects with schizophrenia.
