PG - 1085-93 LID - 10.1111/jcmm.12503 [doi] AB - In clinic, we examined the expression of protein kinase C (PKC)-alpha and Dicer in the samples of bladder cancer patients, and found that the two proteins have a line correlation. Our study confirmed this correlation existing by clearing the decreasing expression of Dicer after the PKC-alpha knockdown. Treatment of bladder cancer cell lines (T24, 5637) with the PKC-alpha or Dicer knockdown and the PKC inhibitors (Calphostin C and Go 6976) can promote the apoptosis. Inhibition of PKC can increase the activities of caspase-3 and PARP, however, decrease the expression of Dicer. And knockdown of the PKC-alpha or Dicer can also activate the caspase-3 or the PARP. Considering the reduction of PKC-alpha can induce the Dicer down-regulation, we make the conclusion that the reduction of PKC-alpha can promote the apoptosis via the down-regulation of Dicer in bladder cancer.
