Endothelin-1 Activates MAPKs and Modulates Cell Cycle Proteins in OKP Cells
The signaling mechanisms through which endothelin (ET)-1 induces hyperplasia of the renal tubular epithelium are largely unknown. Methods: These mechanisms were explored using ETB-overexpressing opossum kidney (OKP) cells as a model system. Results: ET-1 (10 nM) induced a 10-fold increase in c-jun m...
