Protein kinase C (PKC) is a group of phospholipid-dependent serine/threonine protein kinases, which togeth-er with protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase G (PKG) constitute a superfamily of serine/threonine protein kinase AGC. PKC includes classic PKC, novel PKC, atypical PKC and some members of kinase associated with PKC (PRK). PKC is wide-ly distributed in mammalian tissues and cells, which plays an important biological role in growth and metabolism, prolifera-tion and differentiation of cells. A series of studies have demonstrated that variations of multiple cells, occurrence and devel-opment of diseases are related to the abnormal expression of PKC. Therefore, designing and searching for efficient PKC inhib-itors have very important implications for synthesis of many kinds of effective drugs and treatment of a variety of clinical dis-eases including cancer, cardiovascular, and hypertension, et al. In recent years, the research on PKC inhibitors has become the focus of domestic and foreign research. A large number of literatures have reported many kinds of effective PKC inhibi-tors, and analyzed their function site, mechanism, clinical trial data and so on. The discovery of these PKC inhibitors has im-portant implications for structural analysis of PKC and the treatment of diseases. So in this paper, the efficient PKC inhibi-tors are summarized.

Objective To investigate whether antiseptic central venous catheters (CVC) modified with chlorhexidine acetate and silver sulfadiazine can be beneficial in reducing bacterial colonization and catheter-related infection. Methods Prospective controlled non-blinded randomized clinical trial was conducted. Seventy adult inpatients with CVC from intensive care unit of General Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police Force during June 2007-June 2009 were enrolled. Their baseline characteristics, APACHE Ⅱ score and therapeutic interventions were comparable. Patients were randomly received either an antiseptic CVC ( antiseptic group, n = 28) or a standard two-lumen CVC ( control group, n = 42 ). Microbiological evaluation was done after CVC removal. A catheter bacterial colonization ( CBC) was considered if bacterial growth of > 15 CFU was found by semi-quantitative roll-plate technique from a proximal or distal catheter segment. A catheter-related infection ( CRI) was defined as a colonized catheter with local signs of inflammation. A catheter-related bloodstream infection ( CR-BSI) was defined as a colonized catheter with isolation of the same organism from the patient' s blood with accompanying clinical signs of infection. SPSS 11.5 software was used for statistical analysis. Kaplan Meier curve was used to evaluate the association between CVC retention time and bacterial colonization or infection, and Log-rank test was performed to compare between the groups. Results CVC was removed from 3.6% (1/28) patients of antiseptic group and 21.4% (9/42) patients of control group because of infection (x2 = 5. 143, P <0. 05). Colonization of CVC was observed in 7. 1% (2/28) patients from antiseptic group and 35. 7% ( 15/42) from control group (x2 =7.458, P<0.01). CBC or CRI was not observed in antiseptic group until day 19, while CRI occurred at day 6 in the control group. CVC colonization and infection were developed in 31.4% and 14. 3% patients of antiseptic group during day 14-day 28 respectively, while the rates in the control group were 90% and 70% ( u = 27.5 and 14.31, P < 0.01). Conclusions Antiseptic CVC modified with chlorhexidine acetate and silver sulfadiazine can significantly lower the risks of CBC and CRI. But more than 50% patients would develop infection when colonization occured, no matter patients receive standard or antiseptic CVC. After CVCs have been inserted for > 2 weeks, the colonization and infection will increase significantly in both standard or antiseptic CVC, so to shorten the insertion time is an effective measure to decrease the CVC-related infection.
