1 We demonstrated that, as in alpha T(3)-1 cells, in a more differentiated gonadotrope cell line L beta T(2) the GnRH-receptor coupling (PLC, PLA2, PLD) generated second messengers essential for PKCs activation; the characterized isoforms (alpha, beta II, delta, epsilon, zeta) were selectively and differentially down-regulated by TPA (alpha, beta II, delta, epsilon) or GnRH (delta, epsilon).

2 In whole cell lysates, proteasome inhibitors (proteasome inhibitor I and II, Lactacystin, beta-Lactone, Calpain inhibitor I) prevented in both gonadotrope cell lines the TPA-induced depletion of PKC alpha, epsilon, and the GnRH-elicited PKC epsilon down-regulation; they counteracted in mixed pituitary cell cultures as well, the TPA-evoked PKC alpha, epsilon depletion.
