Abstract

SUMMARY1. This study examined the effects of transforming growth factor‐βl (TGF‐β1) on platelet‐derived growth factor‐BB (PDGF‐BB)‐stimulated DNA synthesis, [125I]‐PDGF‐BB receptor binding and PDGF‐β receptor mRNA expression in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) isolated from Wistar‐Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).2. TGF‐β1 inhibited by 40% DNA synthesis stimulated by PDGF‐BB in VSMC from WKY rats but potentiated by 20% growth factor‐stimulated DNA synthesis in VSMC from the SHR.3. Since the difference in effect of TGF‐β1 could not be attributed to differential regulation of [125I]‐PDGF‐BB binding activity and PDGF‐β receptor mRNA expression, it is suggested that alterations in intracellular signalling pathways may account for the differential effects of TGF‐β1 on PDGF‐BB‐stimulated DNA synthesis in VSMC from SHR and WKY rats.
