Molecular and mechanical synergy: cross-talk between integrins and growth factor receptors.
The full repertoire of molecules and mechanisms which lead to cardiac hypertrophy are poorly understood. Many studies over the last several decades have shown how various growth factors are involved in the hypertrophic response. It has also been intuitively obvious that mechanical mechanisms which impose hemodynamic loads on the working myocardium must also be involved in this process. Integrin...
متن کاملCross-talk between integrins and oncogenes modulates chemosensitivity.
Chemotherapy often relies on cancer cell death resulting from DNA damage. The p53 tumor suppressor pathway that is an important player in DNA damage response is frequently inactivated in cancer. Genotoxicants also activate DNA damage-independent stress pathways and activity of oncogenic signaling and adhesive interactions with the cancer microenvironment can have a strong impact on chemosensiti...
متن کاملMutual cross-talk between fibronectin integrins and the EGF receptor
Extension of the plasma membrane is one of the first steps in cell migration. Understanding how cells "choose" between various types of membrane protrusion enhances our knowledge of both normal and cancer cell physiology. The EGF receptor is a paradigm for understanding how transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases regulate intracellular signaling following ligand stimulation. Evidence from the p...
متن کاملCross-talk between estrogen receptors and insulin-like growth factor-I receptor in the brain: cellular and molecular mechanisms.
Accumulating evidence suggests that insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and estradiol interact to regulate neural function. In this review, we focus on the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in this interaction. The expression of estrogen receptors (ERs) and IGF-I receptor is cross-regulated in the central nervous system and many neurons and astrocytes coexpress both receptors. Further...
متن کاملCorrelation between Apoptosis, Tumorigenesis, and Levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor I Receptors1
We have investigated whether there is a quantitative relationship be tween the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR), the extent of apoptosis in vivo, and tumorigenesis. C6 rat glioblastoma cells were treated with increasing concentrations of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides to the IGF-IR RNA. The extent of apoptosis in vivo is correlated to the decrease in IGF-IR levels and, in turn, t...
