  • Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) can protect cells from apoptosis induced by various agents, including Fas ligation. To elucidate a possible interaction between Fas-mediated apoptotic signals and activation-related protective signals, we investigated the impact of Fas ligation on PKC activity. We demonstrate that engagement of Fas on human lymphoid Jurkat cells triggered apoptosis, and Fas ligation resulted in partial blockade of cellular PKC activity. The phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-mediated translocation of PKCθ from the cytoplasm to the membrane was inhibited by treatment with anti-Fas antibody, whereas the translocation of PKCα or ε was not affected.In vitro kinase assay of PKCα or ε phosphotransferase activity demonstrated that Fas ligation inhibited the ability of PKCα to phosphorylate histone H1 as substrate but did not inhibit ε isozyme activity. This inhibition of PKCα activity mediated by Fas ligation was reversed by okadaic acid, a phosphatase inhibitor, suggesting the involvement of a member of the protein phosphatase 2A subfamily in this component of Fas signaling. Identical patterns of PKC isozyme inhibition were obtained using mouse thymoma cells overexpressing the fas gene (LF(+)). These results suggest that the selective inhibition of a potentially protective, PKC-mediated pathway by Fas activation may, to some extent, contribute to Fas-induced apoptotic signaling.
