:
These results suggest that
Ox-LDL activates
TGF-beta/Smad signaling to stimulate PAI-1 transcription in human mesangial cells
Hong et al., Translational research : the journal of laboratory and clinical medicine 2006
:
Treatment with PD98059 or UO126, mitogen activated ERK activating kinase 1/2 inhibitors, significantly inhibited the
Ox-LDL induced increase in PAI-1 mRNA and nuclear
Smad3 expression, DNA/protein complex formation, and PAI-1 promoter activity ... These results suggest that phosphorylation of ERK is induced by Ox-LDL through the induction of the TGF-beta signaling pathway and that activated ERK, in turn, participates in the
Ox-LDL induced
Smad3 activation and subsequent PAI-1 gene expression in mesangial cells
Song et al., Translational research : the journal of laboratory and clinical medicine 2008
(MAP Kinase Signaling System) :
Quiescent mesangial cells were incubated for 18 h with and without the presence of lovastatin before 50 microg/mL of Ox-LDL treatment for 1 h. Lovastatin inhibited markedly the stimulatory
effects of
Ox-LDL on ERK1/2 activation, nuclear
Smad3 expression, TGF-beta1 and PAI-1 mRNA and protein expression, and PAI-1 luciferase activity ... Similar to lovastatin, FTI-277, which is an inhibitor of Ras farnesylation, decreased the
Ox-LDL induced
activation of
ERK/Smad3 and induction of TGF-beta1/PAI-1
