General description
Through the protein kinase C (PKC) signaling pathway, PMA is a tumor promoter associated with:
- gene transcription
- cell growth
- cell differentiation
- programmed cell death
- immune pathway
- receptor desensitization
Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate is used to study:
- growth factors
- hormones
- cytokines-mediated regulation of cellular growth and differentiation
Application
- for the detection of intracellular cytokines
- in CellROX oxidative stress assay
- for Huh7 cell stimulation to investigate dipeptidyl peptidase 9 (DPP9) re-distribution
- as a positive control in B-cell receptor (BCR) stimulation of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) cells
- in the differentiation of monocytes (THP -1) into macrophages
- molecular biology studies as standard
- analytical studies of tumor promoters
- promotion of cell growth
