NADPH oxidase is involved in prostaglandin F2alpha-induced hypertrophy of vascular smooth muscle cells: induction of NOX1 by PGF2alpha

Prostaglandin (PG) F(2alpha), one of the primary prostanoids generated in vascular tissue, is known to cause hypertrophy in vascular smooth muscle cells. To clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying PGF(2alpha)-induced hypertrophy, the involvement of reactive oxygen species was examined in a rat v...
