Bryostatin 1 and phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) are both potent activators of protein kinase C (PKC), although in primary mouse keratinocytes bryostatin 1 does not induce differentiation and blocks PMA-induced differentiation. We report here that in primary mouse keratinocytes PMA caused translocation of PKC-epsilon to the Triton X-100-soluble fraction with an approximately 2-order of magnitude higher potency, compared with translocation of PKC-alpha and PKC-delta. The kinetics of translocation were fastest for PKC-epsilon, slower for PKC-alpha, and slowest for PKC-delta. At 5-20 min bryostatin 1 showed potency similar to that of PMA for translocating PKC-alpha, higher potency for translocating PKC-delta, and lower potency for translocating PKC-epsilon. At a later time (6 hr), bryostatin 1 was 1-2 orders magnitude more potent than PMA for causing loss of PKC-alpha, -delta, and -epsilon from the soluble fraction. Bryostatin 1 was 40-fold more potent than PMA for down-regulating PKC-alpha and showed a biphasic dose-response curve for down-regulating PKC-delta. Bryostatin 1 at 0.1-1 nM down-regulated PKC-delta to a similar extent as did PMA. Bryostatin 1 at 100 nM to 1 microM, on the other hand, failed to induce down-regulation, and these high (100 nM to 1 microM) doses of bryostatin 1 showed noncompetitive inhibition of PKC-delta down-regulation by 1 microM PMA after coapplication. This protected portion of PKC-delta retained kinase activity. The dose-response curve for bryostatin 1 protection of PKC-delta from down-regulation by PMA correlated with bryostatin 1 inhibition of the effects of PMA on cornified envelope formation (a marker of differentiation) and epidermal growth factor binding. Although PKC-epsilon was readily translocated by both PMA and bryostatin 1, the PKC-epsilon originally associated with the particulate fraction showed no down-regulation by either of these agents. We hypothesize that differential regulation of PKC isozymes by PMA and bryostatin 1 may contribute to the different patterns of biological responses that they induce.

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.
