Defining the roles of arrestin2 and arrestin3 in vasoconstrictor receptor desensitization in hypertension
Prolonged vasoconstrictor-stimulated phospholipase C activity can induce arterial constriction, hypertension, and smooth muscle hypertrophy/hyperplasia. Arrestin proteins are recruited by agonist-occupied G protein-coupled receptors to terminate signaling and counteract changes in vascular tone. Her...
