Summary
The effect of various inhibitors on the activity of protein kinase C (PKC) was investigated. Studies in vitro with purified rat brain PKC were carried out alongside studies using tumor and normal tissue cell lines. Suramin, an anti-cancer drug, was found to inhibit PKC activity and induce differentiation in neuroblastoma cell clone NB2A. Staurosporine, a potent inhibitor of PKC activity, also inhibited the phorbol ester induced activation of the Na+/H+ antiporter in smooth muscle cells. However once the antiporter had been activated, inhibitors of PKC were not effective supporting a mode in which the Na+/H+ antiporter conserves memory of its activation.
