Inhibition of AMPK or eNOS has no effect on VEGF-stimulated ERK1/2 or Akt phosphorylation. HAECs were preincubated in the presence or absence of A) 10 μM STO-609 or B) 1 mM L-NAME for 15 min prior to incubation with the indicated concentrations of AICAR for 45 min or VEGF-A and VEGF-B for 5 min and lysates prepared. Lysates were subsequently subjected to immunoblotting with the antibodies indicated. Representative immunoblots are shown, repeated with similar results on three independent sets of lysates.
