Abstract excerpt
Cyclic GMP modulates gene expression in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in part by stimulating cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (PKGI) and the phosphorylation of transcription factors. In some cells, cGMP increases nuclear translocation of PKGI and PKGI-dependent phosphorylation of transcription regulators; however, these observations have been variable, and the mechanisms mediating nuclear PKGI translocation...
