Heterogeneity of ATP receptors in aortic endothelial cells. Involvement of P2y and P2u receptors in inositol phosphate response.

abstract：:Smooth muscle expresses the Ialpha and the Ibeta isoforms of cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (cGKI). Inactivation of the murine cGKI gene prkg1 leads to multiple phenotypes and premature death at approximately 6 weeks. We reconstituted mice with the cGKIalpha or -Ibeta isozyme to test which isozyme was needed to suppo...
