Angiotensin II Signal Transduction in Vascular Smooth Muscle: Role of Tyrosine Kinases

Berk, Bradford C., Corson, Marshall A.·1997·Circulation Research

Abstract

Abstract In this review, the role of tyrosine kinases in angiotensin II–mediated signal transduction pathways in vascular smooth muscle is discussed. Angiotensin II was isolated by virtue of its vasoconstrictor abilities and has long been thought to play a critical role in hypertension. However, recent studies indicate important roles for angiotensin II in inflammation, atherosclerosis, and congestive heart failure. The expanding role of angiotensin II indicates that multiple signal transduction pathways are likely to be activated in a tissue-specific manner. Exciting recent data show that angiotensin II directly stimulates tyrosine kinases, including pp60 c-src kinase (c-Src), focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and Janus kinases (JAK2 and TYK2). Angiotensin II may activate receptor tyrosine kinases, such as Axl and platelet-derived growth factor, by as-yet-undefined autocrine mechanisms. Finally, unknown tyrosine kinases may mediate tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc, Raf, and phospholipase C-γ after angiotensin II stimulation. These angiotensin II–regulated tyrosine kinases appear to be required for angiotensin II effects, such as vasoconstriction, proto-oncogene expression, and protein synthesis, on the basis of studies with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Thus, understanding angiotensin II–stimulated signaling events, especially those related to tyrosine kinase activity, may form the basis for the development of new therapies for cardiovascular diseases.

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.
