Phenotype triggers

  • normal activity of ER-beta
    in smooth_muscle
    • Estradiol is a potent inhibitor of vascular smooth muscle cell growth. [1]
    • Estradiol stimulates cAMP synthesis and cAMP-derived adenosine regulates smooth muscle cell growth via A(2) adenosine receptors. This cAMP-adenosine pathway may contribute to the antivasooclusive effects of estradiol. [1]
