1 Insulin-like growth factor-I induces reactive oxygen species production and cell migration through Nox4 and Rac1 in vascular smooth muscle cells. Reactive Oxygen Species Rac family small GTPase 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 Either knockdown of Nox4 or inactivation of Rac1 impaired IGF-I-induced ROS. Reactive Oxygen Species Rac family small GTPase 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that Nox4 and Rac1 mediate IGF-I-induced ROS production and cell migration in VSMCs and that Nox4 is not regulated by Rac1. Reactive Oxygen Species Rac family small GTPase 1 Rattus norvegicus
