Role of contractile prostaglandins and Rho-kinase in growth factor-induced airway smooth muscle contraction
BACKGROUND: In addition to their proliferative and differentiating effects, several growth factors are capable of inducing a sustained airway smooth muscle (ASM) contraction. These contractile effects were previously found to be dependent on Rho-kinase and have also been associated with the producti...
