Neuronal growth factor regulation of two different sodium channel types through distinct signal transduction pathways
Neuronal growth factors regulate the expression of voltage-activated sodium current in differentiating sympathetic neurons and PC12 cells. We show that, in PC12 cells, the NGF- and FGF-induced sodium current results from increased expression of two distinct sodium channel types. Sodium current results from the rapid induction of a novel sodium channel transcript, also found in peripheral neuron...
متن کاملA density-sensing factor regulates signal transduction in Dictyostelium
Dictyostelium discoideum initiates development when cells overgrow their bacterial food source and starve. To coordinate development, the cells monitor the extracellular level of a protein, conditioned medium factor (CMF), secreted by starved cells. When a majority of the cells in a given area have starved, as signaled by CMF secretion, the extracellular level of CMF rises above a threshold val...
متن کاملEstrogen Stimulates Proliferation and Differentiation of Neural Stem/Progenitor Cells through Different Signal Transduction Pathways
Our previous study indicated that both 17β-estradiol (E2), known to be an endogenous estrogen, and bisphenol A (BPA), known to be a xenoestrogen, could positively influence the proliferation or differentiation of neural stem/progenitor cells (NS/PCs). The aim of the present study was to identify the signal transduction pathways for estrogenic activities promoting proliferation and differentiati...
متن کاملTarget depletion of distinct tumor necrosis factor receptor subtypes reveals hippocampal neuron death and survival through different signal transduction pathways.
Tumor necrosis factor receptor-I (TNFRI) and TNFRII are two TNFR subtypes in the immune system, but their roles in the brain remain unclear. Here we present a novel interaction between TNFR subtypes and TNF-alpha in the brain. Our studies on target-depleted TNFR in mice show that TNF-alpha has little effect on hippocampal neurons in which TNFRI, containing an "intracellular death domain," is ab...
متن کاملNeutrophil cell surface receptors and their intracellular signal transduction pathways☆
Neutrophils play a critical role in the host defense against bacterial and fungal infections, but their inappropriate activation also contributes to tissue damage during autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Neutrophils express a large number of cell surface receptors for the recognition of pathogen invasion and the inflammatory environment. Those include G-protein-coupled chemokine and chemoat...
