Abstract excerpt
Defensin transcription in HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells is greatly enhanced during retinoic acid (RA)-induced differentiation. We have probed this regulatory pathway by selective modulation of various kinase activities. Induction was potentiated by elevated cAMP and attenuated by protein kinase C inhibition, entirely correlated to enhanced or blocked morphological differentiation, respectively. Yet, defensin...
