Background and purpose

we previously showed that epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase (EGFRtk) is essential in the development of myogenic tone. GRB2-SOS, protein kinase B (Akt), Janus kinase (JAK), and Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) are activated by stretch. Thus, we hypothesized that GRB2-SOS, Akt, JAK and STAT3 are downstream signaling of the EGFR and play role in myogenic tone.

Experimental approach

myogenic tone was determined in freshly isolated coronary arterioles from C57/BL6 mice with and without inhibitors. Pressurized coronary arterioles under 25 and 75mm Hg were subjected to Western blot analysis to determine signaling phosphorylation. Smooth muscle cells (SMC) stimulated with EGF were used to determine the interaction between signaling.

Key results

coronary arteriole myogenic tone was significantly reduced under EGFRtk, GRB2-SOS, JAK, and STAT3 inhibition (53.6 ± 2 vs. 83.4 ± 1.3; 82.8 ± 1; 83.6 ± 1; 86.1 ± 1% of passive diameter at 75mm Hg, p<0.05, respectively). However, Akt inhibition had no effect on coronary arteriole myogenic tone. Western blot analysis showed increased EGFRtk, STAT3, JAK, and Akt phosphorylation at 75mm Hg, which was significantly inhibited under EGFRtk inhibition. Interestingly, immunoprecipitation/Western blot analysis showed two intracellular complexes (ERK1/2-JAK-STAT3) involved in myogenic tone and (Akt-JAK-STAT3) not involved in myogenic tone.

Conclusion and implications

these findings demonstrate that ERK1/2-JAK-STAT3 complex and GRB2-SOS, down stream signaling of the EGFRtk, are critical in the development of myogenic tone, thereby highlighting these signaling events as potential therapeutic targets in cardiovascular disease states associated with altered myogenic tone."xsd:string
