Abstract excerpt
Dequalinium (DECA) is a potent antitumor agent and inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC). Previously it was shown that PKCalpha activity in vitro could be irreversibly inhibited when treated with DECA at low micromolar concentrations and irradiated with 366 nm of light. This approach was used to probe the role of intracellular PKC activity in the motility of metastatic murine melanoma B16 F10 cells and as a target...
