## Abstract Sphingosine 1‐phosphate (S1P) has been shown to regulate expression of several genes in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and contributes to arteriosclerosis. However, the mechanisms regulating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression by S1P in aortic VSMCs remain unclear.
## Abstract The expression of matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) has been implicated in progression of atherosclerotic lesions. The role and importance of the signaling pathway in the transcriptional regulation of MMP‐9 in human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMC) was examined. Tumor necrosis factor
## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are responsible for degradation of extracellular matrix and play important roles in cell migration, proliferation, and tissue remodeling related to airway inflammation. Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) has been shown to induce MMP‐9 production in many cell types a
