Abstract In this review, the role of tyrosine kinases in angiotensin II–mediated signal transduction pathways in vascular smooth muscle is discussed. Angiotensin II was isolated by virtue of its vasoconstrictor abilities and has long been thought to play a critical role in hypertension. However, recent studies indicate important roles for angiotensin II in inflammation, atherosclerosis, and congestive heart failure. The expanding role of angiotensin II indicates that multiple signal transduction pathways are likely to be activated in a tissue-specific manner. Exciting recent data show that angiotensin II directly stimulates tyrosine kinases, including pp60c-src kinase (c-Src), focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and Janus kinases (JAK2 and TYK2). Angiotensin II may activate receptor tyrosine kinases, such as Axl and platelet-derived growth factor, by as-yet-undefined autocrine mechanisms. Finally, unknown tyrosine kinases may mediate tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc, Raf, and phospholipase C-{gamma} after angiotensin II stimulation. These angiotensin II–regulated tyrosine kinases appear to be required for angiotensin II effects, such as vasoconstriction, proto-oncogene expression, and protein synthesis, on the basis of studies with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Thus, understanding angiotensin II–stimulated signaling events, especially those related to tyrosine kinase activity, may form the basis for the development of new therapies for cardiovascular diseases.


Key Words: tyrosine kinase • signal transduction • Src • focal adhesion kinase • platelet-derived growth factor
