1 PKCepsilon is essential for gelsolin expression by histone deacetylase inhibitor apicidin in human cervix cancer cells. apicidin gelsolin Homo sapiens
2 In this study, we show that protein kinase C (PKC) signaling pathway is required for the induction of gelsolin by the histone deacetylase inhibitor apicidin in HeLa cells. apicidin gelsolin Homo sapiens
3 Apicidin induces gelsolin mRNA independently of the de novo protein synthesis. apicidin gelsolin Homo sapiens
4 Furthermore, inhibition of PKCepsilon by either siRNA or dominant-negative mutant completely abrogates the expression of gelsolin by apicidin, indicating that PKCepsilon is the major isoform for this process. apicidin gelsolin Homo sapiens
5 In parallel, apicidin induction of gelsolin is antagonized by the inhibition of Sp1 using dominant-negative Sp1 or specific Sp1 inhibitor mithramycin, and inhibition of PKC leads to suppression of Sp1 promoter activity. apicidin gelsolin Homo sapiens
6 Our results provide mechanistic insights into molecular mechanisms of gelsolin induction by apicidin. apicidin gelsolin Homo sapiens
