Abstract excerpt
Despite decades of research since phorbol esters first linked protein kinase C (PKC) to tumor promotion, the biological role of this family of kinases in cancer has remained ambiguous because of isozyme-specific functions and tissue-type-dependent effects. Here, we delineate critical roles for PKC in lung cancer. We previously showed that sustained activation of PKCβII activates mTOR, an effect evident in lung...
