Connexin43 (Cx43) forms gap junctions that mediate intercellular communication between osteoblasts. We have examined the effects of prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) on gap junctional communication in the rat osteogenic sarcoma cells UMR 106-01. Incubation with either PGE 2 o

## Abstract Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX‐2) is an immediate early gene induced by a variety of stimuli and its expression is stimulated by individual activation of Ras or Rho GTPases. Here we investigate the role of coordinate activation of Ras and Rho GTPases in the induction of COX‐2. Individual express
## Abstract Heregulin (HRG) has been implicated in the progression of breast cancer cells to a malignant phenotype, a process that involves changes in cell motility and adhesion. Here we demonstrate that HRG differentially regulates the site‐specific phosphorylation of the focal adhesion components
