| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Vascular abnormal contraction, known as vasospasm, including cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vasospasm, remains a significant source of morbidity and mortality in sudden death and in patients after subarachnoid hemorrhage. We previously demonstrated that sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC) induced this abnormal vascular contraction via a SPC/Fyn/Rho-kinase(ROK) signalling pathway. However, molecular mechanisms between Fyn and ROK remain unclear. In the present study, we identified paxillin as a novel signalling molecule acting downstream of Fyn. Our results indicate that paxillin may be a new therapeutic target for vascular abnormal contraction.
