1 Our results indicate that: 1) STAT proteins play an essential role in angiotensin II-induced vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, 2) JAK2 plays an essential role in the tyrosine phosphorylation of Raf-1, and 3) convergent mitogenic signaling cascades involving the cytosolic kinases JAK2, MEK1, and ERK1 mediate vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation in response to both growth factor and G protein-coupled receptors.
