Fig. 6. DN STAT3 blocks insulin-induced PKC
activation. Keratinocytes were either uninfected (), or infected with DN STAT3 adenovirus. Following infection (24 hours), cells were untreated, or stimulated with 107 M insulin (Ins) for the designated times (5 or 30 minutes). (A) PKC
or (B) STAT3 were immunoprecipitated from protein extracts using specific anti-PKC
and anti-STAT3 antibodies. PKC
and STAT3 immunoprecipitates were analyzed for PKC activity using an in vitro kinase assay as described in Materials and Methods. Each bar represents the mean ± s.d. of three determinations in three separate experiments. Values are expressed as picomoles of ATP per dish per minute. Highly significant differences were found (P<0.0001) for both IP PKC
and STAT3 compared with levels in the respective controls at 5 minutes.
