Phosphorylation of the regulatory light chains of myosin II (rMLC) by the Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK) and dephosphorylation by a type 1 phosphatase (MLCP), which is targeted to myosin by a regulatory subunit (MYPT1), are the predominant mechanisms of regulation of smooth muscle tone. The activities of both enzymes are modulated by several protein kinases. MLCK i...
Background and Purpose: Glutamate-induced excitotoxicity has been implicated as a causative factor for selective neuronal loss in ischemia and hypoxia. Toxic exposure of neurons to glutamate results in an extended neuronal depolarization that precedes delayed neuronal death. Because both delayed neuronal death and extended neuronal depolarization are dependent on calcium, we examined the effect...

Expression of glutamine:fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase (GFAT), the rate-limiting enzyme for glucose entry into the hexosamine pathway, is transcriptionally regulated. Immunohistochemical studies of human kidney biopsies demonstrate increased GFAT expression in diabetic glomeruli, but the mechanism responsible for this overexpression is unknown. Given the role of ANG II in diabetic kidney...
We investigated the distribution of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II) in the brains of mice infected with ME7 scrapie strain. CaM kinase II is an enzyme that plays a major role in the regulation of long-term potentiation, a form of synaptic plasticity associated with learning and memory. Immunoreactivity of CaM kinase II a, measured by Western blot, increased marked...
N-Methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activation of extracellular-signal regulated kinase (ERK) was examined in primary cortical cultures. Tetrodotoxin, NMDA receptor antagonists, or reduced extracellular calcium (0.1 mm) greatly decreased basal levels of phospho-ERK2, indicating that activity-dependent activation of NMDA receptors maintained a high level of basal ERK2 activation. This activity-...
Indirect immunofluorescence was used to determine the distribution of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II) in rat embryo fibroblast 3Y1 cells, rat C6 glioma cells, and human epidermoid carcinoma KB cells. During interphase at growing phase, CaM kinase II was localized diffusely in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. In the nucleus, the enzyme was localized within the whole ...
Phosphorylation of protein kinase Cs (PKCs) by phosphoinositide-dependent kinase I (PDK) is critical for PKC activity. In the nervous system of the marine mollusk Aplysia, there are only two major PKC isoforms, the calcium-activated PKC Apl I and the calcium-independent PKC Apl II, and both PKCs are persistently activated during intermediate memory. We monitored the PDK-dependent phosphorylatio...
In cultured vascular smooth muscle cells, angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulated a cytosolic protein kinase activity toward myelin basic protein (MBP) in a timeand dose-dependent manner. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate also increased the MBP kinase activity. Downregulation of protein kinase C by prolonged treatment of the cells with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate marked...
Plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) plays an integral role not only in the regulation of fibrinolytic activity but also in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and hypertension. We investigated the signaling pathways of angiotensin II (Ang II) leading to PAI-1 gene expression. Ang II increased the PAI-1 mRNA and protein levels in a time- and dose-dependent manner through the Ang II ty...
