Abstract excerpt
Previously we showed that the human GM3 synthase gene was expressed during the induction of megakaryocytic differentiation in human leukemia K562 cells by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). In this study we found that treatment of PMA-induced K562 cells with Gö6976, a specific inhibitor of PKC, and U0126, an inhibitor of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) reduced expression of GM3 synthase,...
