VEGF signaling, mTOR complexes, and the endoplasmic reticulum: Towards a role of metabolic sensing in the regulation of angiogenesis

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) activates unfolded protein response sensors in the endoplasmic reticulum through phospholipase C gamma (PLCγ)-mediated crosstalk with mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Activation of transcription factor 6 (ATF6) and protein kinase RNA-like en...

Descripción
Sumario:Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) activates unfolded protein response sensors in the endoplasmic reticulum through phospholipase C gamma (PLCγ)-mediated crosstalk with mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Activation of transcription factor 6 (ATF6) and protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) activate mTORC2, ensuring maximal endothelial cell survival and angiogenic activity through phosphorylation of AKT on Ser473. As mTORC1 is a metabolic sensor, metabolic signals may be integrated with signals from VEGF in the regulation of angiogenesis.
