Ans (D) Inositol 1,4,5 triphosphate

Agree with mjl 1717. IP3 induces release of Ca from sarcoplasmic reticulum. This Ca along with DAG activates protien kinase C.

  #6

Isn't this associated with a major receptor??
Anyone know , I forgot.

Gq causing IC inc. IP3 and DAG a/s with alpha 1 , muscarinic 1.......!!!!

It is IP3 who stimulates Ca release from endoplasmic reticulum. The calcium released will help in the reaction from Diaglycerol to increase protein kinase C
