متن کاملIntegrin-linked kinase is responsible for Ca2+-independent myosin diphosphorylation and contraction of vascular smooth muscle.
Smooth muscle contraction is activated by phosphorylation at Ser-19 of LC20 (the 20 kDa light chains of myosin II) by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent MLCK (myosin light-chain kinase). Diphosphorylation of LC20 at Ser-19 and Thr-18 is observed in smooth muscle tissues and cultured cells in response to various contractile stimuli, and in pathological circumstances associated with hypercontractility. ML...
متن کاملCa2(+)-dependent and independent mechanisms of sustained contraction in vascular smooth muscle of rat aorta.
Norepinephrine (NE), prostaglandin F2 alpha (PG), 12-deoxyphorbol 13-isobutyrate (DPB) and high K+ induced sustained increase in cytosolic Ca2+ [( Ca2+]i) and muscle tension in rat aorta. Verapamil, at the concentration which abolished the high K(+)-induced changes, also abolished the increase in [Ca2+]i due to NE, PG and DPB although contractions were only partially inhibited. Excess EGTA furt...
متن کاملPhospholipase A2 augments contraction and intracellular calcium mobilization through thromboxane A2 in bovine tracheal smooth muscle.
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) induces hyper-sensitivity to muscarinic agonists in airway smooth muscle in vitro. The precise mechanism of this is unknown, but might involve altered calcium homeostasis. In order to elucidate the effects of PLA2, on bovine tracheal smooth muscle contraction, isometric tension and intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) were simultaneously measured in fura 2-loade...
متن کاملRole for G(12)/G(13) in agonist-induced vascular smooth muscle cell contraction.
Receptor-induced vascular smooth muscle cell contraction is mediated by dual regulation of myosin light chain (MLC(20)) phosphorylation through Ca(2+)-dependent stimulation of myosin light chain kinase and Rho/Rho-kinase-mediated inhibition of myosin phosphatase. Although myosin light chain kinase regulation is initiated by the coupling of receptors to G proteins of the G(q) family, G(q) and G(...
