“…MAS was shown to constitutively couple to Ga i , Ga q , and Ga 12/13 proteins (Zohn et al, 1998;Whitehead et al, 2001;Booden et al, 2002;Chen and Ikeda, 2004;Singh et al, 2010a;Tirupula et al, 2014). Adenovirus-mediated overexpression of MAS in rat neonatal cardiomyocytes caused IP3 accumulation and myocyte hypertrophy through Ga q -mediated signaling (Zhang et al, 2012). Constitutive activity of the MAS in overexpressing cells activates G-protein signaling pathways (Dias-Peixoto et al, 2008;Shemesh et al, 2008;Gomes et al, 2012;Zhang et al, 2012;Tirupula et al, 2014).…”
