The activation of protein kinase C, induction of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), and hyperplasia have been suggested to be linked, sequential processes resulting from phorbol ester application to mouse skin. However, evidence is presented indicating that these events are not necessarily linked or dependent on one another and that significant differences exist in these responses between phorbol ester promotion sensitive (SSIN) and resistant (C57BL/6J) mice. The epidermis from SSIN mice treated with a single application of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) displayed a large induction of ODC and a subsequent extensive hyperplasia. A second TPA treatment at 24 or 48 h after the first did not result in ODC induction (refractory state), and protein kinase C was shown to be down-regulated at these times. By 72 h, however, a responsive state had returned even through protein kinase C remained down-regulated. The epidermis of C57BL/6J responds to a single application of TPA with a level of ODC induction similar to that of the SSIN mice. Protein kinase C was down-regulated by approximately 75% after 24 h and was virtually completely down-regulated at 48 and 72 h (95-97%). In contrast to the above findings for the sensitive mice, however, little, if any, hyperplasia was produced. In addition, while a second TPA treatment at 24 h did not result in ODC induction (refractory state), hyperplasia did occur within 24 to 48 h. When the second TPA application was given 48 h after the first, at a time when protein kinase C was down-regulated, an overinduction of ODC occurred, as well as subsequent hyperplasia. Furthermore, a significant number of papillomas resulted when these increased treatment frequencies, i.e., once a day or every other day, were used to promote dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-initiated C57BL/6J mice. It is concluded that, while hyperplasia remains an apparent requirement for tumor promotion, the ODC induction following an initial TPA treatment is insufficient for or not causally related to this hyperplasia. In addition, subsequent ODC induction, at least in the C57BL/6J mouse, is probably not mediated by protein kinase C.
