    The G protein-coupled human gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (hGRP-R) is frequently found aberrantly expressed in human cancers of the colon, stomach, and lung, and its ligand-specific activation has been implicated in cell proliferation and differentiation. Here, we demonstrated hGRP-R activation stimulated sustained cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation and transactivation in duodenal cancer cells through a protein kinase C and partially p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase-dependent pathway. In contrast, intracellular calcium, ERK1/2, protein kinase A, and PI3 kinase were not involved. This novel signaling mechanism might be of importance for regulation of CREB-dependent gene expression in human cancer expressing functional hGRP-R.
