Of five human breast tumor cell lines tested, all expressed mRNAs for ET-1, ET-2, and ET-RB. ET-RA mRNA was expressed by four of five tumor cell lines. Breast tumor cells migrated toward ET-1 and ET-2 but not toward ET-3. Chemotaxis involved signaling via both receptors, and a pertussis toxin-sensitive p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-mediated pathway that could be inhibited by MAPK kinase (MEK)1/2 antagonists." ; prov:wasQuotedFrompubmed:15059899 . sub:_5rdfs:label "Selventa" . sub:assertionprov:hadPrimarySourcepubmed:15059899 ; prov:wasDerivedFrombeldoc: , sub:_4 . }
