Abstract

We have recently reported that angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation is mainly mediated by Ca2+-dependent activation of a protein tyrosine kinase through Gq-coupled Ang II type 1 receptor in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). In the present study, we found Ang II rapidly induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor and its association with Shc and Grb2. These reactions were inhibited by the EGF receptor kinase inhibitor, AG1478. The Ang II-induced phosphorylation of the EGF receptor was mimicked by a Ca2+ ionophore and completely inhibited by an intracellular Ca2+ chelator. Thus, AG1478 abolished the MAPK activation induced by Ang II, a Ca2+ ionophore as well as EGF but not by a phorbol ester or platelet-derived growth factor-BB in the VSMC. Moreover, Ang II induced association of EGF receptor with catalytically active c-Src. This reaction was not affected by AG1478. These data indicate that Ang II induces Ca2+-dependent transactivation of the EGF receptor which serves as a scaffold for pre-activated c-Src and for downstream adaptors, leading to MAPK activation in VSMC.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
