摘要
We have reported that angiotensin II induces the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor transactivation leading to extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation in rat vascular smooth muscle cells. Here, we report that the EGF receptor kinase inhibitor AG1478 and the ERK kinase inhibitor PD98059 markedly inhibited angiotensin II-induced c-Fos expression and protein synthesis but not c-Jun expression in these cells. These data suggest that the EGF receptor transactivation and subsequent ERK activation are indispensable for angiotensin II-mediated growth promotion of vascular smooth muscle cells providing a new mechanistic insight whereby angiotensin II contributes abnormal vascular remodeling.
