Neutrophil 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...
متن کاملCytokine receptors and signal transduction.
Most of the recently cloned cytokine receptors that operate in the immune and hematopoietic systems contain no tyrosine kinase domains in their cytoplasmic regions, unlike the family of growth factor receptors defined earlier. However, they can be assigned to several new types of receptor families based on structural similarities among them. It is characteristic of these receptors that many of ...
متن کاملProstanoids and prostanoid receptors in signal transduction.
Prostanoids are arachidonic acid metabolites and are generally accepted to play pivotal functions in amongst others inflammation, platelet aggregation, and vasoconstriction/relaxation. Inhibition of their production with, for instance, aspirin has been used for over a century to combat a large variety of pathophysiological processes, with great clinical success. Hence, the cellular changes indu...
متن کاملBlue light receptors and signal transduction.
A plant blue light response was documented as early as 1881 by Darwin when he discovered what is now known as the blue light–induced phototropic response (Darwin, 1881). However, blue light receptors mediating phototropism and other photoresponses in plants have remained elusive until recently. On the basis of molecular genetic studies in Arabidopsis, it is clear now that there are two types of...
متن کاملSignal transduction--receptors, mediators, and genes.
The 2008 annual meeting of the Signal Transduction Society covered a broad spectrum of topics, with signaling in immune cells as the special focus of the meeting. Many of the immune signaling talks concerned B and T lymphocytes in particular; the role of inflammatory cytokines in cancer progression was also addressed. Neoplastic development was also discussed with regard to aspects of cell cycl...
