Endogenous mono-ADP-ribosylation mediates smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration via protein kinase N-dependent induction of c-fos expression.
ADP-ribosylation has been coupled to intracellular events associated with smooth muscle cell vasoreactivity, cytoskeletal integrity and free radical damage. Additionally, there is evidence that… Expand

Perivascular delivery of losartan with surgical fibrin glue prevents neointimal hyperplasia after arterial injury.
OBJECTIVE Long-term success of revascularization procedures is limited by recurrent stenosis, a reduction in vascular lumen area that results from neointimal hyperplasia. Inhibitors of the… Expand

meta-Iodobenzylguanidine, an Inhibitor of Arginine-Dependent Mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation, Prevents Neointimal Hyperplasia
The association of ADP-ribosylation with cell proliferation and ischemia-reperfusion injury suggests that it may be a suitable target for therapeutic control of revascularization-induced injury. The… Expand

Immunodetection of activated mitogen-activated protein kinase in vascular tissues
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) is a key modulator of cytoplasmic-nuclear signal transmission, and for this reason measurement of MAPK activity has become very popular. Monitoring of MAPK… Expand

Repression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase gene activity by insulin is blocked by 3-aminobenzamide but not by PD128763, a selective inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase.
Expression of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) gene is induced by 3-aminobenzamide, an inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Synthesis of PEPCK mRNA is repressed by insulin, but… Expand

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I)-dependent activation of pp42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase occurs independently of IGF-I receptor kinase activation and IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation.
The proliferation and metabolism of H4IIE hepatoma cells is apparently mediated through the insulin receptor. These cells, however, also have high-affinity binding sites for insulin-like growth… Expand

PGE2 stimulates vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation via the EP2 receptor
Prostaglandins released by injured vascular tissue can modulate smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation. The mechanism of action of PGE(2) was investigated with porcine coronary artery SMCs obtained… Expand

Stimulation of protein synthesis by phosphatidic acid in rat cardiomyocytes.
Phosphatidic acid (PA) was observed to stimulate protein synthesis in adult cardiomyocytes in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The maximal stimulation in protein synthesis (142 +/- 12% vs… Expand

Expression and regulation of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor by growing and quiescent H4IIE hepatoma.
Recent evidence that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) influences certain properties of H4IIE hepatoma cells independent of insulin led us to examine whether H4IIE cells express IGF-1 receptors.… Expand

Inhibition of RNA synthesis by bradykinin involves both the B1 and B2 receptor subtypes.
The efficacy of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors in the treatment of heart disease is due in part to the accumulation of bradykinin (BK). Since BK can exert its effect by influencing cell… Expand
