Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Gα(12/13) play a role in oncogenic transformation and tumor growth. Cysteine-rich protein 61 (CYR61) is a growth-factor-inducible angiogenic factor. In view of potential overlapping functions between Gα(12/13) and CYR61, this study investigated the role of these G proteins in CYR61 induction in association with hyperplastic vascular abnormality. METHODS AND RESULTS: Overexpression of activated Gα(12)...
