摘要

Asthmatic airways are characterized by an increase in smooth muscle mass, due mainly to hyperplasia. Many studies suggest that extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1 and ERK2, respectively), one group of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase superfamily, play a key role in the signal transduction pathway leading to cell proliferation. PGE(2) and forskolin inhibited mitogen-induced ERK activation. Inhibition of MAP kinase kinases 1 and 2 (MEK1 and MEK2, respectively), which are upstream from ERK, with the specific MEK inhibitor U-0126 blocked both cell proliferation and ERK activation. In addition, U-0126 inhibited mitogen-induced activation of p90 ribosomal S6 kinase and expression of c-Fos and cyclin D1, all of which are downstream from ERK in the signaling cascade that leads to cell proliferation. Antisense oligodeoxynucleotides directed to ERK1 and -2 mRNAs reduced ERK protein and cell proliferation. These results indicate that ERK is required for human airway smooth muscle cell proliferation. Thus targeting the control of ERK activation may provide a new therapeutic approach for hyperplasia seen in asthma.
