Cd44 Enhances Neuregulin Signaling by Schwann Cells
We describe a key role for the CD44 transmembrane glycoprotein in Schwann cell-neuron interactions. CD44 proteins have been implicated in cell adhesion and in the presentation of growth factors to high affinity receptors. We observed high CD44 expression in early rat neonatal nerves at times when Schwann cells proliferate but low expression in adult nerves, where CD44 was found in some nonmyeli...
متن کاملBlocking mitochondrial calcium release in Schwann cells prevents demyelinating neuropathies.
Schwann cells produce myelin sheath around peripheral nerve axons. Myelination is critical for rapid propagation of action potentials, as illustrated by the large number of acquired and hereditary peripheral neuropathies, such as diabetic neuropathy or Charcot-Marie-Tooth diseases, that are commonly associated with a process of demyelination. However, the early molecular events that trigger the...
متن کاملCalcium signaling in renal tubular cells.
The kidney handles calcium by filtration and reabsorption. About 60% of the plasma calcium is filterable, and 99% is reabsorbed in the tubule. In the proximal tubule, the reabsorption is passive and paracellular, but in the distal tubule is active and transcellular. Thus, renal tubular cells are exposed to very high concentrations of calcium in both, the extracellular and the intracellular comp...
متن کاملCalcium signaling in specialized glial cells.
This article reviews calcium signaling in three specialized types of glial cells: Müller cells of the retina, Bergmann glial cells of the cerebellum, and radial glial cells of the developing cortex. Müller cells generate spontaneous and neuronal activity-evoked increases in Ca(2+). Neuron to Müller cell signaling is mediated by neuronal release of ATP and activation of glial P2Y receptors. Müll...
متن کاملAltered calcium signaling in cancer cells.
It is the nature of the calcium signal, as determined by the coordinated activity of a suite of calcium channels, pumps, exchangers and binding proteins that ultimately guides a cell's fate. Deregulation of the calcium signal is often deleterious and has been linked to each of the 'cancer hallmarks'. Despite this, we do not yet have a full understanding of the remodeling of the calcium signal a...
