Furthermore, we show that the ATRA-induced regulation of amyloidsecretases is shaped by the activity of conventional PKCs, notably PKC (upregulation) and PKC II in IMR-32 cells, which results in lowered DNA-binding activity of the transcription factor AP-1 but increased binding activity of NFB. In N2a cells, on the other hand, cPKCs are not affected but nevertheless show enhanced NFB as well as enhanced AP-1 binding activity.
