Abstract excerpt
We have previously shown that 15-lipoxygenase (15-LOX) and its metabolite 15-hydroxyeicosanoid (15-HETE) play a critical role on hypoxia-triggered pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) phenotype alteration through multifactorial pathways, like extracellular signal-regulated kinase and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases. Here, we hypothesize that activator protein 1 (AP-1) was also involved in the PASMC...
