ABSTRACT:
Isozyme-specific agonists or activators of .epsilon.PKC are disclosed. The agonists include peptides corresponding to the region of .epsilon.PKC between about amino acids 85 and 92. Also disclosed are therapeutic methods employing such .epsilon.PKC-specific agonists to induce preconditioning and thereby reduce injury due to subsequent ischemia, as well as methods for screening test compounds for .epsilon.PKC-selective agonist properties.
