Previously, we reported that
12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced
apoptosis of LNCaP human prostate cancer cells was accompanied by
prolonged translocation of protein kinase C (PKC)
to non-nuclear
membranes and that TPA-resistant LNCaP cells had down-regulated PKC
.
Here we show that 10 nM bryostatin 1 induced transient membrane
translocation and down-regulation of PKC
, prolonged translocation of
PKC
and
to non-nuclear membranes, and did not induce cell death
but blocked TPA-induced apoptosis. To test the hypothesis that
inhibition of TPA-induced apoptosis by bryostatin 1 was due to
down-regulation of PKC
, we inducibly overexpressed PKC
in LNCaP
cells. Overexpression of PKC
alone did not induce apoptosis, even in
clones that contained much more membrane-bound, active PKC
than was
observed in TPA-treated untransfected LNCaP cells. However, the
addition of 10 nM bryostatin 1 to PKC
-overexpressing LNCaP cells did
not yield down-regulation of PKC
and induced extensive apoptosis.
Immunoblot analysis revealed that TPA induced prolonged
hyperphosphorylation of Raf-1 and activation of
extracellular-regulated/mitogen-activated protein kinases 1 and 2 in
untransfected LNCaP cells, as did bryostatin 1 in PKC
-overexpressing
cells. On the other hand, bryostatin 1 induced only transient
hyperphosphorylation of Raf-1 and activation of
extracellular-regulated/mitogen-activated protein kinases 1 and 2 in
untransfected LNCaP cells. These results confirm a role of prolonged
membrane-associated PKC
in PKC activator-mediated LNCaP apoptosis
and suggest involvement of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway.
