Hormone signalling from a developmental context.
The influence of hormones on plant growth and development has been clearly documented over the past 50 years. Now, with molecular genetics, the genes that convert changes in hormone levels into a cellular response are beginning to be identified. However, recent studies have demonstrated that the developmental context in which the hormones act plays a large influence on their synthesis and actio...
متن کاملSignalling from parathyroid hormone.
PTH (parathyroid hormone), acting via type 1 PTH receptors, is a major regulator of plasma [Ca(2+)]. The G-protein, G(s), is an essential component of the sequence linking PTH to plasma Ca(2+) regulation, but the relative importance of intracellular signals, including Ca(2+) and cAMP, that lie downstream of G(s) is not resolved.
متن کاملI-34: Steroid Hormone Signalling at the FetomaternalInterface
Background: Progesterone is indispensable for differentiation of human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) into decidual cells, a process that critically controls embryo implantation. However, HESCs also abundantly express androgen receptors (AR), yet the role of this member of the superfamily of ligand-dependent transcription factors in the decidual process remains poorly elucidated. Materials a...
متن کاملSignalling for developmental plasticity.
We describe some of the regulatory mechanisms found in the signalling networks that mediate plant plasticity in response to the environment. In the absence of the relevant environmental cue, the response is often actively repressed at multiple levels, including chromatin structure, mRNA stability and protein degradation. The environmental signal normally initiates several pathways that share si...
متن کاملExosomes in developmental signalling.
In order to achieve coordinated growth and patterning during development, cells must communicate with one another, sending and receiving signals that regulate their activities. Such developmental signals can be soluble, bound to the extracellular matrix, or tethered to the surface of adjacent cells. Cells can also signal by releasing exosomes - extracellular vesicles containing bioactive molecu...
