Mild hyperthermia down-regulates receptor-dependent neutrophil function.
Mild hypothermia impairs resistance to infection and, reportedly, impairs phagocytosis and oxidative killing of unopsonized bacteria. We evaluated various functions at 33 degrees-41 degrees C in neutrophils taken from volunteers. Adhesion on endothelial cells was determined using light microscopy. Adhesion molecule expression and receptors, phagocytosis, and release of reactive oxidants were as...
متن کاملP-Rex1 Regulates Neutrophil Function
Rac GTPases regulate cytoskeletal structure, gene expression, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Rac2-deficient neutrophils cannot chemotax, produce ROS, or degranulate upon G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation. Deficiency in PI3Kgamma, an upstream regulator of Rac, causes a similar phenotype. P-Rex1, a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Rac, is believed to link GPC...
متن کاملThe Receptor Tyrosine Kinase EphB2 Regulates NMDA-Dependent Synaptic Function
Members of the Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases control many aspects of cellular interactions during development, including axon guidance. Here, we demonstrate that EphB2 also regulates postnatal synaptic function in the mammalian CNS. Mice lacking the EphB2 intracellular kinase domain showed wild-type levels of LTP, whereas mice lacking the entire EphB2 receptor had reduced LTP at hippo...
متن کاملLigand-dependent receptor down-regulation
The kinetics of internalization, sequestration and metabolic degradation of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF)-receptor complex were studied in rat thoracic aortic smooth-muscle (RTASM) cells. These parameters were directly determined by measuring 125I-ANF binding to total, intracellular and cell-surface receptors. Pretreatment of cells with the lysosomotropic agent chloroquine and the energy depl...
متن کاملInterleukin-3 down-regulates its own receptor.
To gain insight into the mechanisms involved in regulating murine interleukin-3 (mIL-3) receptor expression, we have examined the effects of mIL-3 and murine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (mGM-CSF) on mIL-3 receptor internalization and re-expression and studied the relationship between mIL-3 cell surface receptor density and growth factor sensitivity. As a source of cells for...
