Abstract

Administration of arginine vasopressin (AVP) time‐dependently induced the phosphorylation of heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) at Ser‐15 and Ser‐85 in smooth muscle of aorta in vivo. The AVP‐induced phosphorylation of HSP27 at Ser‐15 and Ser‐85 was inhibited by a V1a receptor antagonist but not by a V2 receptor antagonist. In cultured aortic smooth muscle A10 cells, AVP markedly stimulated the phosphorylation of HSP27 at Ser‐15 and Ser‐85. The AVP‐induced phosphorylation of HSP27 was attenuated by SB203580 and PD169316, inhibitors of p38 mitogen‐activated protein (MAP) kinase, but not by PD98059, a MEK inhibitor. These results strongly suggest that AVP phosphorylates HSP27 via p38 MAP kinase in aortic smooth muscle cells. © 2004 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Palytoxin (PTX), isolated from a zoanthid of the genus Palythoa, is the most potent marine toxin known. Intoxication by PTX leads to vasoconstriction, hemorrhage, ataxia, muscle weakness, ventricular fibrillation, pulmonary hypertension, ischemia and death. In this study, clonal A7r5 rat aortic smoo

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is a polypeptide able to affect cardiovascular homeostasis exhibiting diuretic, natriuretic, and vasorelaxant activities. ANF shows antimitogenic effects in different cell types acting through R(2) receptor. Excessive proliferation of smooth muscle cells is a common p
