Regulation of membrane turnover by ras proteins.
Because ras oncogenes mediate abnormal cellular growth, ras proteins have been presumed to play a role primarily in growth control. The biological function of ras proteins may, however, prove to be much more diverse: ras proteins may be involved in cellular functions that control endocytosis and/or exocytosis.
متن کاملRas-dependent and -independent regulation of reactive oxygen species by mitogenic growth factors and TGF-beta1.
Mitogenic growth factors and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1) induce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in nonphagocytic cells, but their enzymatic source(s) and regulatory mechanisms are largely unknown. We previously reported on the ability of TGF-beta1 to activate a cell surface-associated NADH:flavin:O(2) oxidoreductase (NADH oxidase) that generates extracellular H(...
متن کاملBioimaging Probes for Reactive Oxygen Species and Reactive Nitrogen Species
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play key roles in many pathogenic processes, including carcinogenesis, inflammation, ischemia-reperfusion injury and signal transduction. Also, reactive nitrogen species (RNS) cause various biological events such as neurodegenerative disorders. Sensitive and specific detection methods for ROS and RNS in biological samples should be useful for elucidation of biologi...
متن کاملRegulation of ion channel structure and function by reactive oxygen-nitrogen species.
Ion channels subserve diverse cellular functions. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species modulate ion channel function by a number of mechanisms including 1) transcriptional regulation of gene expression, 2) posttranslational modifications of channel proteins, i.e. nitrosylation, nitration, and oxidation of key amino acid residues, 3) by altering the gain in other signaling pathways that may in t...
متن کاملPositive and negative regulation of insulin signaling by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species.
Regulated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS)/reactive nitrogen species (RNS) adequately balanced by antioxidant systems is a prerequisite for the participation of these active substances in physiological processes, including insulin action. Yet, increasing evidence implicates ROS and RNS as negative regulators of insulin signaling, rendering them putative mediators in the development o...
