Role of the ERK signaling pathway to promote angiogenesis in myocardial infarction. HSPA12A promotes VEGF expression and activates the ERK signaling pathway. In contrast, its inhibitor PD98059 attenuates ERK phosphorylation and hinders angiogenesis. HIF-1α can improve myocardial ischemia by promoting the expression of phosphorylated MEK in TRPC1, activating the ERK signaling pathway, promoting cell proliferation and migration, regulating angiogenesis, and improving myocardial ischemia status.
