Prolonged morphine treatment alters δ opioid receptor post-internalization trafficking
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The δ opioid receptor (DOP receptor) undergoes internalization both constitutively and in response to agonists. Previous work has shown that DOP receptors traffic from intracellular compartments to neuronal cell membranes following prolonged morphine treatment. Here, we examined the effects of prolonged morphine treatment on the post-internalization trafficking of DOP rec...
متن کاملMolecular alterations in signal pathways of melanoma and new personalized treatment strategies: Targeting of Notch.
Despite modern achievements in therapy of malignant melanomas new treatment strategies are welcomed in clinics for survival of patients. Now it is supposed that personalized molecular therapies for each patient are needed concerning a specificity of molecular alterations in patient's tumors. In human melanoma, Notch signaling interacts with other pathways, including MAPK, PI3K-AKT, NF-kB, and p...
متن کاملIn Vitro Treatment of Melanoma Brain Metastasis by Simultaneously Targeting the MAPK and PI3K Signaling Pathways
Malignant melanoma is the most lethal form of skin cancer, with a high propensity to metastasize to the brain. More than 60% of melanomas have the BRAFV600E mutation, which activates the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway [1]. In addition, increased PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) pathway activity has been demonstrated, through the loss of activity of the tumor suppressor gene, PT...
متن کاملTargeting KIT for Treatment Of Advanced Melanoma
This is a remarkable time for melanoma research and treatment. Before this year, approved agents available for the treatment of metastatic melanoma were limited to dacarbazine (DTIC) and interleukin-2 (IL-2), with benefits achieved in only a small minority of patients treated with either drug. In 2011, however, two new agents, ipilimumab (YervoyTM) and vemurafenib (ZelborafTM), were approved, w...
متن کاملThe Legionella pneumophila Effector Protein, LegC7, Alters Yeast Endosomal Trafficking
The intracellular pathogen, Legionella pneumophila, relies on numerous secreted effector proteins to manipulate host endomembrane trafficking events during pathogenesis, thereby preventing fusion of the bacteria-laden phagosome with host endolysosomal compartments, and thus escaping degradation. Upon expression in the surrogate eukaryotic model Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we find that the L. pneu...
