Protein kinase C, an elusive therapeutic target?

Abstract: Preface Protein kinase C (PKC) has been a tantalizing target for drug discovery ever since it was first identified as the receptor for the tumor promoter phorbol ester in 19821. Although initial therapeutic efforts focused on cancer, additional diseases, including diabetic complications, heart failure, myocardial infarction, pain and bipolar disease were targeted as researchers developed a better understanding of the roles that PKC’s eight conventional and novel isozymes play in health and disease. Unfortunate… Show more

“…PKC is an attractive target to treat many diseases, including diabetes (7,67). Identification of RNA-binding proteins or specific splicing events as downstream effectors of PKC may provide us new tools to design safer and novel therapeutics such as the oligo-based therapy to correct these splicing defects.…”

“…Increased activity of select PKC isozymes has been observed in many disease states-for example, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (Birkenfeld and Shulman, 2014), diabetes, cancers, ischemic heart disease, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease [reviewed by Mochly-Rosen et al (2012)]. Modulation of PKC activity presents an attractive target for drug development (Mochly-Rosen et al, 2012;Sun and Alkon, 2012;SanchezBautista and Nicolas, 2013). Consequently, PKC activators and inhibitors have been developed for clinical trials for many diseases, either alone or in combination with other drugs (Mochly-Rosen et al, 2012).…”
