The KC gene is a cell cycle-dependent competence gene originally identified in platelet-derived growth factor-stimulated BALBlc-3T3 cells. This gene is also induced in murine peritoneal rnacrophages in response to activation stimuli. We have examined theexpression of the KC gene in cultured porcine
## Abstract Thrombin increases the cytosolic Ca^2+^ concentrations and induces NO production by activating proteinaseβactivated receptor 1 (PAR~1~) in vascular endothelial cells. The storeβoperated Ca^2+^ influx is a major Ca^2+^ influx pathway in nonβexcitable cells including endothelial cells and
