Big Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1 Protects Cultured Rat Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells From Oxidative Damage

Abstract.: Oxidative stress is considered a major mediator of arteriosclerosis. In vascular smooth muscle cells, oxidative stress–induced cell death (including apoptosis) is probably related to arterial calcification in arteriosclerosis. Big mitogen-activated protein kinase-1 / extracellular signal–...
