Protein Kinase C-α Activity Is Required for Respiratory Syncytial Virus Fusion to Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells

Abstract: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection activates protein kinase C (PKC), but the precise PKC isoform(s) involved and its role(s) remain to be elucidated. On the basis of the activation kinetics of different signaling pathways and the effect of various PKC inhibitors, it was reasoned that PKC activation is important in the early stages of RSV infection, especially RSV fusion and/or replication. Herein, the role of PKC-␣ during the early stages of RSV infection in normal human bronchial epithelial cells is … Show more

“…First, blockade of PKC, GRK2, or CXCL8 restores responsiveness to terbutaline comparable to that induced by forskolin, indicating that such blockade effectively recouples ␤ 2 -AR to PKA. Second, RSV is known to trigger phosphorylation, sustained activation, and cytoplasmto-membrane translocation of PKC (30,41), which is consistent with this mechanism. Third, membrane ␤ 2 -AR expression increases at day 2, which is incompatible with ␤-agonist desensitization as a result of either receptor internalization or degradation.…”

“…Thus the ratio of phosphoPKC:PKC in the membrane fraction of alveolar cells from RSV-infected mice increased by ϳ300% at day 2 compared with uninfected mice. Although activation of several PKC isoforms, including PKC, has been demonstrated previously in vitro following RSV infection (1,30,41), this is the first demonstration of PKC activation in RSV-infected mouse lung ex vivo.…”

RSV-A2 (1.6 × 10 6 pfu/ml, 300 μl) was stained with 0.3 nM R-18 (Molecular Probes) for 1 hour, followed by passage through a Sephadex column as described previously (44,45).

“…5g). Therefore, the M. catarrhalis activates PKCa, PKCe and PKCh activation in pulmonary epithelial cells The translocation of kinases from cytosol to the cellular membrane is known to be an indicator for activation of these PKC isoforms [33,34]. In order to confirm activation of the PKC isotypes PKCa, PKCe and PKCh, translocated PKC isotypes were detected in the cell membrane following M. catarrhalis infection by Western blotting.…”
