In humans, thromboxane (TX)A2 signals through the TPalpha and TPbeta isoforms of the TXA2 receptor, or TP. Herein, the RhoA effector protein kinase C-related kinase (PRK) 1 was identified as an interactant of both TPalpha ...
Protein kinases (PK) control phosphorylation in eukaryotic cells, and thereby regulate
metabolic pathways, cell cycle progression, apoptosis and transcription.
Consequently there is significant interest in manipulating ...
Thromboxane (TX) A2 and prostaglandin (PG) D2 mediate opposing actions in platelets and in vascular and non-vascular smooth muscle. Here, we investigated the effects of stimulation of the PGD2 receptor (DP) on signaling ...
Both thromboxane (TX) A2 and 8-epi prostaglandin (PG) F2alpha have been reported to stimulate mitogenesis of vascular smooth muscle (SM) in a number of species. However, TXA2 and 8-epiPGF2alpha mediated mitogenic signalling ...
