Abstract excerpt
We have previously reported that expression of the constitutively active mutant of Galpha11 or stimulation of m1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor induced proteolytic activation of Rho-associated kinase (ROCK-I) by caspase and apoptosis in HeLa cells. In this study, we investigate the molecular mechanisms of Galphaq/11-induced apoptosis in m1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor-expressing HeLa cells. Overexpression...
