“…Acute EtOH can inhibit activation of PKC by interfering with translocation to the plasma membrane (Slater et al., ; Steiner et al., ). The effect of EtOH on PKC differs by subtype of PKC, as PKCα (Reneau et al., ; Slater et al., ), PKCγ (Harris et al., ; Rex et al., ), and PKCδ (Rex et al., ) have been reported to be inhibited by EtOH, but other isoforms are resistant to EtOH inhibition, like PKCβ1 and PKCε, for example (Rex et al., ). Other laboratories have shown that EtOH can enhance the activity of some PKC isoforms, such as PKCε (Messing et al., ; Satoh et al., ).…”
