1 11919159 However, inhibition of the endogenous small GTPase RhoA by the C3 exoenzyme, dominant-negative N19-RhoA, activated G26V-RhoD, and activators of the nitric oxide/cGMP pathways conferred invasive activity to PAR-1 via a signaling cascade using Galphaq, phospholipase C (PLC), Ca(2+)/calmodulin myosin light chain kinase (CaM-MLCK), and phosphorylation of MLC.
2 16204412 However, recent studies have shown the modulation of MLC phosphorylation without a rise in Ca(2+) in smooth muscle and that two key molecules (Rho-kinase and CPI-17) are involved in the regulation of calcium sensitization.
3 16204412 Our results also suggest that this high basal MLC phosphorylation may be due to the upregulation of Rho-kinase and CPI-17.
4 18599521 Simvastatin inhibited TGF-beta2-dependent MLC phosphorylation and gel contraction in a dose- and time-dependent manner and was capable of inhibiting translocation of Rho protein to the plasma membrane in the presence of TGF-beta2.
5 20479130 Myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) plays an important role in maintaining the equilibrium by phosphorylating myosin light chain (MLC), thereby inducing actomyosin contractility and weakening endothelial cell-cell adhesion.
6 15198926 Basal myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation levels were significantly elevated in response to most stimuli in muscle strips from diabetic animals, although levels of stress were either unchanged or lower. alpha-Toxin-permeabilized strips that allow for control of the intracellular environment while maintaining excitation-contraction coupling showed increased levels of MLC phosphorylation but decreased sensitivity to activator Ca2+ in smooth muscle from diabetic animals.
7 21756365 The simulated effects of PAR-1, Rho GTPase, ROCK, VEGF and VEGFR2 over-expression on MLC activation, and the collective modulation by thrombin and histamine are consistent with experimental findings.
8 21756365 Our model was used to predict enhanced MLC activation by CPI-17 over-expression and by synergistic action of thrombin and VEGF at low mediator levels.
9 21756365 Our model was validated against a number of experimental findings and the observed synergistic effects of low concentrations of thrombin and histamine in mediating the activation of MLC.
