## Abstract Although it is known that transforming growth factor (TGF)‐β induces vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) synthesis in vascular smooth muscle cells, the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. In the present study, we examined whether the mitogen‐activated protein (MAP)
The effects of phorbol 12-tetradecanoyl-13-acetate (TPA) and dibutyryl cAMP on the glutamate transport present in chick Bergmann glial cell (BGC) cultures were examined. TPA produced a significant decrease in [ 3 H]-D-aspartate uptake, while dibutyryl cAMP treatment elicited a slight reduction in th
