Abstract

Endothelin (ET)-1 is involved in the vascular system, cell proliferation and apoptosis. ET receptors consist of ET type A receptor (ETA R) and ET type B receptor (ETB R). ETA R and ETB R generally exhibit opposite responses, although many exceptions exist. In the present study, we attempted to identify ETA R- or ETB R-specific binding proteins to understand the differences in ETA R- and ETB R-mediated responses after ET-1 stimulation. The 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) showed a stronger binding affinity towards ETB R than towards ETA R. Moreover, GRP78 overexpression promoted ETB R-mediated ERK activation and GRP78 silencing suppressed ETB R-mediated ERK activation. Furthermore, ETB R can localize GRP78 to the cell periphery. These results suggest that the interaction of ETB R with GRP78 affects ERK activation and GRP78 localization.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
