## Abstract We previously reported that endothelin‐1 (ET‐1) activates both p44/p42 mitogen‐activated protein (MAP) kinase and p38 MAP kinase in osteoblast‐like MC3T3‐E1 cells, and that not p44/p42 MAP kinase but p38 MAP kinase participates in the ET‐1‐induced vascular endothelial growth factor (VEG
## Abstract We have previously demonstrated that activation of the Ras/Mapk pathways is required for transforming growth factor β (TGF‐β) induction of TGF‐β~1~ expression. Here we examined the role of the Ras/Mapk pathways in TGF‐β induction of urokinase‐type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) e
