Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates generally to a method of modulating endothelial cell activity and to agents useful for same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of modulating intercellular vascular endothelial permeability by modulating an intracellular protein kinase C-dependent signalling mechanism. The method for the present invention is useful, inter alia, in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of a condition charicterised by aberrant, unwanted or otherwise inappropriate endothelial cell activity, in particular, conditions characterised by a loss of vascular intergrity.
