Syntaxin 1C is an alternative splice variant of HPC-1/syntaxin 1A; the latter participates in neurotransmitter release and is assigned to the gene domain responsible for Williams' syndrome (WS). It is expressed in the soluble fraction extracted from human astroglioma cell lines T98G and U87MG. Quantitative immunoblot and indirect immunofluorescence analyses revealed that the expression of syntaxin 1C was upregulated by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), but not by forskolin. A protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor suppressed this enhancement. These results suggest that syntaxin 1C expression is regulated via the PKC signal pathway. This is the first report of a signal transduction system that directly affects the expression of syntaxin protein.
