Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-stimulated proliferation of coronary smooth muscle cells (cSMC) contributes to the pathogenesis of arteriosclerosis and restenosis. However, the molecular mechanisms involved are not fully understood. We have shown previously that protein kinase C (PKC) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) are required for the bFGF-stimulated mitogenic process in bovine cSMC. In this study, we determined the PKC isoform(s) involved and investigated their functional role in the bFGF-stimulated signaling and cell cycle progression in human and bovine cSMC.

PKC δ-induced activation of MAPK pathway is required for bFGF-stimulated proliferation of coronary smooth muscle cells
