c-Jun N-terminal Kinase Contributes to Norepinephrine-Induced Contraction Through Phosphorylation of Caldesmon in Rat Aortic Smooth Muscle

Abstract.: Vascular smooth muscle contraction is mediated by activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2, an isoform of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). However, the role of stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in vascular smooth muscle contraction...
