Abstract excerpt
To address the isoenzyme-specific involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in breast cancer biology, hormone-responsive MCF-7 breast cancer cells were infected with either PKC-alpha or -beta 1 cDNAs subcloned in the retroviral expression vector pMV7. Several stable clones of PKC-overexpressing cells were generated. Western analysis revealed cross-regulation between the alpha and beta isoforms, because induction of...
