pubmed:abstractText
Glomerular mesangial cells have been shown to express two protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes, PKC-alpha and PKC-epsilon. Upon long-term treatment with phorbol ester PKC-alpha is depleted faster than PKC-epsilon. Here we demonstrate that removal of phorbol ester results in a differential recovery of PKC-alpha and -epsilon isozymes. Whereas PKC-epsilon starts to recover within 1h, PKC-alpha does not begin to recover before 4 h after removal of phorbol ester. These data suggest a differential rate of protein synthesis of PKC-alpha and -epsilon. In parallel to the recovery of PKC isozymes mesangial cells also regained their functional responsiveness, i.e., stimulation of prostaglandin synthesis and feedback inhibition of angiotensin II-stimulated InsP3 formation.
