متن کاملNuclear receptor regulation gears up another Notch
In this perspective we describe examples of crosstalk between nuclear receptors (NRs) and Notch signaling by means of direct functional interactions between components of both pathways. This crosstalk may provide eukaryotic organisms with molecular mechanisms for the coordination of llong-distance endocrine signals with cell-to-cell juxtacrine communication.
