Inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway suppresses tracheal stenosis in a novel mouse model.

Tracheal stenosis is a refractory and recurrent disease induced by excessive cell proliferation within the restricted tracheal space. We investigated the role of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), which mediates a broad range of intracellular signal transduction processes in tracheal steno...
