1,2-Dioctanoylglycerol (10-100 microM) produced a positive inotropic effect on electrically stimulated left guinea pig atria and increased the frequency of spontaneously beating atria. Various phorbol esters and mezerein induced heterogeneous responses of the left atria. Phorbol dibutyrate and phorbol didecanoate decreased the force of contraction to different extents, whereas phorbol myristate acetate and mezerein had dual actions: an initial enhancement followed by a decline in force. None of these compounds changed the spontaneous atrial rate.

D010703	Phorbol Esters	Tumor-promoting compounds obtained from CROTON OIL (Croton tiglium). Some of these are used in cell biological experiments as activators of protein kinase C.	Phorbol Diester,Phorbol Ester,Phorbol Diesters,Diester, Phorbol,Diesters, Phorbol,Ester, Phorbol,Esters, Phorbol
D011493	Protein Kinase C	An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.
