Abstract excerpt
Among the angiotensin II (Ang II)-mediated signal events likely to be important in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2). The upstream mediators by which Ang II activates ERK1/2 remain poorly defined. Recently, we showed that...
