Triiodothyronine potentiates angiogenesis-related factor expression through PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in human osteoarthritic osteoblasts
Objective(s): Previous study has indicated that triiodothyronine (T3) facilitated cartilage degeneration in osteoarthritis (OA). This study aimed to investigate the effects of T3 on angiogenesis-related factor expression in human osteoblasts of OA subchondral bone.Materials and Methods: The subchondral bone specimens were obtained from O...
متن کاملExtracellular nucleotides differentially regulate interleukin-1beta signaling in primary human astrocytes: implications for inflammatory gene expression.
The cytokine interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) is a potent activator of human astrocytes, inducing or modulating expression of multiple proinflammatory genes via activation of the transcription factors nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) and activator protein-1 (AP-1). In this study, we examined whether IL-1beta signaling is regulated in these cells by extracellular nucleotides that are released at hi...
متن کاملRegulation of innate immunity by extracellular nucleotides.
Extracellular ATP (eATP) is the most abundant among extracellular nucleotides and is commonly considered as a classical danger signal, which stimulates immune responses in the presence of tissue injury. In fact, increased nucleotide concentration in the extracellular space is generally closely associated with tissue stress or damage. However non-lytic nucleotide release may also occur in many c...
متن کاملProfiling Insulin Like Factor 3 (INSL3) Signaling in Human Osteoblasts
BACKGROUND Young men with mutations in the gene for the INSL3 receptor (Relaxin family peptide 2, RXFP2) are at risk of reduced bone mass and osteoporosis. Consistent with the human phenotype, bone analyses of Rxfp2(-/-) mice showed decreased bone volume, alterations of the trabecular bone, reduced mineralizing surface, bone formation, and osteoclast surface. The aim of this study was to elucid...
متن کاملRegulation of cytosolic free calcium concentration by extracellular nucleotides in human hepatocytes.
The effects of extracellular ATP and other nucleotides on the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) have been studied in single primary human hepatocytes and in human Hep G2 and HuH-7 hepatoma cells. ATP, adenosine 5'- O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATPγS), and UTP caused a concentration-dependent biphasic increase in [Ca2+]iwith an initial peak followed by a small sustained plateau in most cell...
