title: The alpha isoform of protein kinase C inhibits histamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in a particulate fraction of the human gastric cancer cell line HGT-1.
abstract: The isoform of protein kinase C responsible for the inhibition of histamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase by the phorbol ester, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), has been investigated in a particulate fraction prepared from the human gastric cancer cell line HGT-1. The alpha and epsilon isoforms of protein kinase C were detected in HGT-1 cells and in a 40,000 x g particulate fraction by immunoblotting procedures. The inhibitory effect of TPA on histamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase was enhanced by the presence of Ca2+, but decreased in a concentration-dependent manner by anti-peptide antibody to protein kinase C alpha, but not to protein kinase C epsilon. Addition of Ca2+ and TPA to the 40,000 x g particulate fraction stimulated the phosphorylation of the protein kinase C substrate myelin basic peptide 4-14. Protein kinase C alpha is probably the isoform responsible for inhibition of histamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase in HGT-1 cells.
