Abstract:
:We investigated the implication of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) in the proliferation stimulated by angiotensin II (Ang II) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in cultured rabbit gingival fibroblasts (CRGF). Ang II stimulated activation of ERK1/2 and the activation was inhibited by CV-11974, an AT1 antagonist, and saralasin, an AT1/AT2 antagonist, but not by PD123,319, an AT2 antagonist in the CRGF. Ang II-stimulated proliferation was inhibited by PD98059 or U0126, selective MEK inhibitors. Furthermore, ET-1 stimulated proliferation via G-protein-coupled ETA receptors, which were identified by Western blot analysis of membrane protein from the CRGF. ET-1 also stimulated activation of ERK1/2 and the activation was inhibited by BQ-123, an ETA inhibitor, and TAK044, an ETA/ETB inhibitor, but not by BQ-788, an ETB inhibitor. ET-1-stimulated proliferation was inhibited by PD98059 or U0126. These findings suggest that ERK1/2 play a role in the signaling process leading to proliferation stimulated by Ang II and ET-1 via G-protein-coupled receptors, AT1 and ETA in CRGF.
