1 19341767 Furthermore, pharmacological inhibitors of Janus kinase (Jak2) and calmodulin (CaM) attenuated EGF-induced NHE-1 activity.
2 19341767 The EGFR kinase inhibitor, AG1478, blocked activation of NHE-1, but did not block EGF-induced phosphorylation of Jak2 or CaM.
3 19341767 These results suggest that EGF induces NHE-1 activity in podocytes through two pathways: (1) EGF-->EGFR-->Jak2 activation (independent of EGFR tyrosine kinase activity)-->tyrosine phosphorylation of CaM-->CaM binding to NHE-1-->conformational change of NHE-1-->activation of NHE-1; and (2) EGF-->EGFR-->EGFR kinase activation-->association of CaM with NHE-1 (independent of Jak2)-->conformational change of NHE-1-->activation of NHE-1.
