Regulation of tumor suppressor PDCD4 by novel protein kinase C isoforms
Open accessAbstract
Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) induces apoptosis in normal hepatocytes and hepatoma cells. PDCD4 is involved in TGF-beta1-induced apoptosis via the Smad pathway. The tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbor-13-acetate (TPA), a protein kinase C stimulator, inhibits TGF-beta1-induced apoptosis. However, the mechanisms of TPA action on PDCD4 expression remain to be elucidated. Therefore. the regulatory mechanism of PDCD4 expression by PKC was investigated. The treatment of the human hepatoma cell line, Huh7 with TPA suppressed PDCD4 protein expression and TGF-beta1 failed to increase the PDCD4 protein expression. PKC inhibitors Ro-31-8425 or bisindolylmaleimide-1-hydrocholoride (pan-PKC inhibitors) and rottlerin (PKCdelta inhibitor), but not Go6976 (PKCalpha inhibitor), enhanced the induction of PDCD4 protein by TGF-beta1. Furthermore, siRNA-mediated knockdown of PKCdelta and epsilon, but not PKCalpha, augmented the TGF-beta1-stimulated PDCD4 protein expression. However, TPA or pan-PKC inhibitor did not alter the PDCD4 mRNA expression either under basal- and TGF-beta1-treated conditions. The down-regulation of PDCD4 by TPA was restored by treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG132. These data suggest that two isoforms of PKCs are involved in the regulation of the PDCD4 protein expression related to the proteasomal degradation pathway.

TPA inhibits TGF-β1-induced apoptosis down-regulating PDCD4 expression but does not stimulate phosphorylation of Akt and S6K1.
“TPA also inhibits the TGF-β1-induced apoptosis down-regulating PDCD4 expression but does not stimulate the phosphorylation of Akt and S6K1.”
From Control Mechanisms of the Tumor Suppressor PDCD4: Expression and Functions (2019) · cites this paper as [68]
Section 3.1 reports that TPA reduced TGF-β1-induced apoptosis and PDCD4 protein expression in Huh7 cells. But Section 3.2 (Fig. 3C) says TPA slightly stimulated phosphorylation of both Akt and S6K, contrary to the claim that it did not stimulate them. (LLM, conf=0.90)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredPRCKδ and PRCKε knockdown up-regulated PDCD4 expression, but PRCKα knockdown did not change PDCD4 expression.
“siRNA-mediated knockdown of the PRCKs showed that PRCKδ and PRCKε knockdown up-regulated, but PRCKα did not change PDCD4 expression [68].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
