Kinase assays |
Protein kinase C was assayed by measuring the incorporation of 32P into H1 histone from [γ-32P]ATP. The standard reaction mixture (0.25 ml) contained 5 pmol of Tris/HCl at pH 7.5, 1.25 pmol of magnesium nitrate, 50 pg of H1 histone, 2.5 nmol of [γ-32P]ATP (5 to 15xl04 cpm/nmol), and 0.5 pg of protein kinase C. Phospholipid, diolein, phorbol esters, and Ca2+ were added as indicated in each experiment. All reagents were taken up in water which was prepared by a double distillation apparatus followed by passing through a Chelex 100 column to remove as much Ca2+ as possible. After incubation for 3 min at 30oC, the reaction was stopped by the addition of 25% trichloroacetic acid, and acid-precipitable materials were collected on a Toyo-Roshi membrane filter (pore size, 0.45 pm). The catalytic fragment of protein kinase C was assayed similarly except that Ca2+, phospholipid, and diolein were omitted. |

12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) is an activator of ERK/MAPK with the concentration of 50μm [1].
ERK is an extracellular signal-regulated kinase and transfers signals from a receptor on the cell surface to DNA cooperated with MAPK. It is reported that ERK deficiency leads to the cell uncontrolled growth and is regarded as a target to cure cancers.
TPA is a potent ERK activator. When tested with A549 cells (human lung cancer cell line), TPA treatment led to an early, strong, and relatively transient ERK phosphorylation [2]. In mouse embryo fibroblasts from DUSP5 (+/+) mice, administration of TPA increased levels of ERK expression [3].
In transgenic (Eisuke) mice expressing a F?rster resonance energy transfer (FRET) biosensor for ERK, ERK activity was gradually stimulated upon topical TPA treatment and reached the peak approximately 6 hr later [1].
It is also reported that TPA treatment increased the accumulation of immature myeloid cells and the formation of papillomas during epidermal carcinogenesis (important in the tumor formation) when tested with S100A9 transgenic mice [4].
