Endothelin potentiates TRPV1 via ETA receptor-mediated activation of protein kinase C
BACKGROUND Endothelin-1 (ET-1) both stimulates nociceptors and sensitizes them to noxious stimuli, an effect probably mediated by the ETA receptor (ETAR) expressed in sensory neurons. The cellular mechanisms of this ET-1-mediated effect are only poorly understood. TRPV1, the heat-, pH- and capsaicin-sensitive cation channel already known to be modulated by a number of cellular mediators release...
متن کاملAttenuation of pattern recognition receptor signaling is mediated by a MAP kinase kinase kinase.
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) play a key role in plant and animal innate immunity. PRR binding of their cognate ligand triggers a signaling network and activates an immune response. Activation of PRR signaling must be controlled prior to ligand binding to prevent spurious signaling and immune activation. Flagellin perception in Arabidopsis through FLAGELLIN-SENSITIVE 2 (FLS2) induces the...
متن کاملA MAP kinase necessary for receptor-mediated activation of adenylyl cyclase in Dictyostelium
Analysis of a developmental mutant in Dictyostelium discoideum which is unable to initiate morphogenesis has shown that a protein kinase of the MAP kinase/ERK family affects relay of the cAMP chemotactic signal and cell differentiation. Strains in which the locus encoding ERK2 is disrupted respond to a pulse of cAMP by synthesizing cGMP normally but show little synthesis of cAMP. Since mutant c...
متن کاملActivation of p38 MAP kinase by asbestos in rat mesothelial cells is mediated by oxidative stress.
Asbestos fibers are biopersistent particles that are capable of stimulating chronic inflammatory responses in the pleura of exposed individuals. Exposure of pleural mesothelial cells, the progenitor cell of malignant mesothelioma, to asbestos induces an array of cellular responses. The present studies investigated whether the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade was induced under asbest...
متن کاملRole of phosphoinositide 3-kinase in the nonselective cation channel activation by endothelin-1/endothelinB receptor.
We recently demonstrated that endothelin-1 (ET-1) activates two types of Ca(2+)-permeable nonselective cation channel (designated NSCC-1 and NSCC-2) in Chinese hamster ovarian cells expressing endothelin(B) receptor (CHO-ET(B)R). These channels can be discriminated using the Ca(2+) channel blockers, LOE 908 and SK&F 96365. LOE 908 is a blocker of NSCC-1 and NSCC-2, whereas SK&F 96365 is a block...
