Description
Application of a specific extracellular-related kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) inhibitor, but not application of either an protein kinase B (Akt) inhibitor, or a Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor to VEGFa-overexpressing A-172 cells substantially abolished the effect of VEGFa on MMP2 activation, suggesting that VEGFa may increase MMP2 levels via ERK/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), but not phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) or JNK signaling pathways in glioblastoma.
