Phorbol 12-Myristate 13-Acetate Induces MUC16 Expression via PKCδ and p38 in Human Airway Epithelial Cells

ObjectivesPhorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) is widely used as a protein kinase C (PKC) activator, PKC is involved in the secretion of mucins. MUC16, one of the membrane-bound mucins, is produced in human airway epithelial cells. However, the effect and signaling pathway of PMA on MUC16 expressio...
