The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in the regulation of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity during interleukin-2 (IL-2)-dependent cell growth was investigated. A large biphasic increase in the activity of ODC was observed after treatment of IL-2-deprived CTLL-2 cells with recombinant human IL-2 (rec IL-2). The PKC activators phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and 4 beta-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate (4 beta-PDD), but not the inactive analog 4 alpha-PDD, induced ODC activity in exponentially growing cultures. Unlike IL-2, however, phorbol esters were poor inducers of IL-2-depleted cultures. H-7, a potent inhibitor of PKC and cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases (CN-PK), suppressed the IL-2-induced ODC activity, while HA1004, a more potent inhibitor of CN-PK than of PKC, had opposite effects depending on its concentration. The results suggest that activation of PKC is involved in but is not the sole mechanism for the induction of ODC by rec IL-2. At concentrations which suppressed the induction of ODC activity by IL-2, H-7 inhibited DNA synthesis and HA1004 did not.
