Abstract excerpt
Different signal transduction cascades have been implicated in angiotensin II (Ang II)-mediated cell growth, such as the extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways. To identify the downstream targets of PI3K involved in Ang II-induced proliferation, we used both rat aortic smooth muscle (RASM) cells and a CHO cell line stably expressing the rat AT1A...
