SUMMARY PKC isoforms associate in vivo with key Wnt canonical proteins: PKC ζ , • upregulated in malignant cells, interacts with GSK3 β and with β -catenin mainly in cancerous cells. PKC δ , downregulated in malignant cells, interacts with APC in both normal and malignant cells. Pharmacological inhibition of PKC ζ , or its decreased expression blocked in • a dose-dependent manner canonical Wnt activation in cancer cell lines, suggesting that PKC ζ modulates in a positive way canonical Wnt activation. Pharmacological inhibition of PKC δ or its decreased expression, improved • in a dose-dependent way canonical Wnt activation in RKO cancer cells, suggesting that PKC δ modulates in a negative way canonical Wnt activation. Altogether, our results indicate that PKC isoforms play an essential role in the regulation of canonical Wnt pathway.
