Endothelin-1 (ET-1) dose-dependently increased HIF1α expression in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Inhibition of protein synthesis did not affect ET-1-induced HIF1α expression. The maximum effect of ET-1 was similar to that caused by proteasome inhibitor MG132. Further study indicates that ET-1 also dose-dependently stimulated calcineurin activation, specific calcineurin inhibitor cyclosporine A (CsA), abolished ET-1-induced HIF1α elevation, and reversed ET-1-induced RACK1 (receptor of activated protein kinase C 1) de-phosphorylation. Endothelin receptor A was found to specifically mediate the effects of ET-1. To examine whether RACK1 is particularly involved in proteasome-dependent HIF1α degradation, RACK1 was silenced by siRNA transfection. Cells lacking RACK1 exhibited significant elevation of HIF1α protein level. Taken together, our study suggests that ET-1 suppressed proteasome-dependent HIF1α degradation by calcineurin-dependent RACK1 de-phosphorylation.

D000075370 Receptors for Activated C Kinase Receptors for PROTEIN KINASE C that consist of seven WD40 REPEATS. They function in a wide variety of cellular and physiologic processes including the assembly of signaling complexes, protein translation, cell growth and proliferation, APOPTOSIS, and MUSCARINIC RECEPTOR transport. RACK1 depends on protein kinase C activity to translocate from the perinuclear region to the cell periphery and associates with the plasma membrane through interactions with KERATIN-1 and INTEGRIN BETA-1.

D015398 Signal Transduction The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
