Many hepatocellular activities may be proximally regulated by intracellular signalling proteins including mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK). In this study, signalling events from epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin were examined in primary cultured human and rat hepatocytes. Using Weste

Compound 5 (Cpd 5), a synthetic K vitamin analogue, or 2-(2-mercaptoethanol)-3-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone, is a potent inhibitor of epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced rat hepatocyte DNA synthesis and induces EGF receptor (EGFR) tyrosine phosphorylation. To understand the cellular responses to Cpd
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor mediates the effects of both EGF and transforming growth factor alpha (TGFalpha). Recent data suggested that EGF acts as a partial agonist/antagonist in hepatocytes, TGFalpha exerting a larger maximal stimulation of DNA synthesis than EGF. To further study
Several agents that act through G-protein-coupled receptors and also stimulate phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC), including angiotensin II, vasopressin, norepinephrine, and prostaglandin (PG) F 2a , activated the ERK1 (p44 mapk ) and ERK2 (p42 mapk ) members of the mitogen-activated
