PMA, or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, is a potent tumor promoter and activator of protein kinase C (PKC). It functions by mimicking diacylglycerol, a natural signaling molecule, leading to the activation of various cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. PMA is commonly used in research to study cell signaling pathways and the mechanisms of cancer progression. Additionally, it can influence immune responses and inflammation.
