We have studied the effects of activators of the Ca++- and phospholipid-dependent enzyme protein kinase C on isometric tension development by both intact and skinned coronary artery strips. The intact strips contracted upon incubation with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate. 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate produced a leftward shift in the concentration-response relationship for contraction of the tissues by K+, histamine and norepinephrine. Phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate elicited contraction of detergent-skinned artery strips when the free Ca++ concentration in the bathing media was 0.1 microM or greater. This effect was diminished greatly in the presence of polymyxin B, a putative inhibitor of protein kinase C. Phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate shifted the Ca++ concentration-tension response relationship for the skinned tissue to the left. These results are consistent with a role for protein kinase C in regulating the contractile responses of coronary arterial smooth muscle to a variety of stimuli, at least in part by increasing the sensitivity of the contractile apparatus to Ca++.
