Role of protein kinase C in cAMP-dependent exocytosis in parotid acinar cells

It is well known that β-adrenergic receptor activation in parotid acinar cells results in increased intracellular cAMP levels, and consequently induces exocytotic amylase release. However, protein kinase C (PKC) has also been considered to contribute to amylase release. In this paper, we review the...
