1 18218985 We investigated whether H(2)O(2) and AGE (advanced glycation end products), 2 well-known mediators of diabetes, negatively regulated ERK5 transcriptional activity and laminar flow-induced endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression through ERK5 SUMOylation.
2 18218985 ERK5 transcriptional activity, but not kinase activity, was inhibited by expression of Ubc9 (SUMO E2 conjugase) or PIAS1 (E3 ligase), suggesting the involvement of ERK5 SUMOylation on its transcriptional activity.
3 18467627 ERK5 wild-type transcriptional activity was inhibited by Ubc9 (SUMO E2 conjugase) or PIAS1 (E3 ligase), but not in the ERK5-SUMOylation-site defective mutant (K6R/K22R).
4 20628425 Furthermore, 1 month of diabetes caused a significant increase in retinal ET-1 mRNA and decrease in ERK5 mRNA expression.
5 20671964 In HMVECs, glucose caused initial activation followed by deactivation of ERK5 and its downstream mediators myocyte enhancing factor 2C (MEF2C) and Kruppel-like factor 2 (KLF2) mRNA expression.
6 20671964 Furthermore, siRNA mediated ERK5 gene knockdown suppressed MEF2C and KLF2 expression and increased VEGF expression and angiogenesis.
7 20671964 On the other hand, constitutively active MEK5, an activator of ERK5, increased ERK5 activation and ERK5 and KLF2 mRNA expression and attenuated basal- and glucose-induced VEGF mRNA expression.
8 20671964 These results indicated that ERK5 depletion contributes to glucose induced increased VEGF production and angiogenesis.
9 15086914 Finally, transfection of dominant-negative MEK5, which is an upstream regulator of BMK1, abolished the BMK1-mediated rat mesangial cell proliferation stimulated by high glucose.
