Here, the authors show that small arteries from mice with smooth muscle-specific loss of G12/G13 or the Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor ARHGEF12 have lost myogenic vasoconstriction.
Title: Myogenic vasoconstriction requires G(12)/G(13) and LARG to maintain local and systemic vascular resistance.
mechanical activation of RhoA in mesenchymal progenitors is dependent on LARG, while ARHGAP18 limits RhoA delineated cytoskeletal structure in static cultures
Title: LARG GEF and ARHGAP18 orchestrate RhoA activity to control mesenchymal stem cell lineage.
We studied the function of LARG in murine and human megakaryocytes and platelets with Larg knockout (KO), shRNA-mediated knockdown and small molecule-mediated inhibition. We found that LARG is important for human, but not murine, megakaryocyte maturation.
Title: Leukaemia-associated Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor (LARG) plays an agonist specific role in platelet function through RhoA activation.
Data found an inverse relationship between the expression of miR-660 and ARHGEF12 in both gain- and loss-of-function studies: overexpression of miR-660 declined the mRNA and protein expressions of ARHGEF12 in C2C12 cells differentiation; however, knockdown of miR-660 had completely opposite results.

This study demonstrated an almost 100-fold higher agonist sensitivity of the Galpha13 LARG interaction compared to the Galpha13 activation in the absence of LARG.
Title: Potentiation of receptor responses induced by prolonged binding of Gα(13) and leukemia-associated RhoGEF.
LARG may play a housekeeper role in regulating constitutive RhoA activity. Its role in regulating platelet function may principally be through RhoA-independent pathways.
Title: Leukemia-associated Rho guanine-nucleotide exchange factor is not critical for RhoA regulation, yet is important for platelet activation and thrombosis in mice.
The increase in LARG expression was accompanied by a significant increase in ACh-stimulated Rho kinase and ZIP kinase activities, and sustained muscle contraction

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
