Abstract:
:Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoactive peptide that exerts hypertrophic, migratory, and mitogenic effects in vascular smooth muscle cells. ET-1-induced activation of several signaling events has been shown to mediate the cellular effects of ET-1. In the past several years, transactivation of growth factor receptor has gained much recognition in transducing the signaling responses of ET-1. Among various growth factor receptors studied, the involvement of epidermal growth factor receptor transactivation in triggering ET-1-induced responses has been studied in some detail. However, recent studies have implicated insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor transactivation in this process. There are also some suggestions for a role of the Src family of nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases, such as c-Src, in transducing the signaling responses of vasoactive peptides. In this review, we will examine the contribution of both insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor and c-Src in mediating ET-1-induced signaling responses in vascular smooth muscle cells.
