Distinct structural requirements of GATA-3 for the regulation of thymocyte and Th2 cell differentiation.
GATA-3, the only T cell-specific member of the GATA family of transcription factors, is essential for the intrathymic development of CD4+ T cells and for the differentiation of Th2 cells. However, whether distinct biochemical features, unique to GATA-3 compared with other GATA family members, are required to drive T cell transcriptional programs or whether the T cell-specific functions of GATA-...
متن کاملFulfilling the metabolic requirements for cell proliferation.
The activity of key metabolic enzymes is regulated by the ubiquitin ligases that control the function of the cyclins; therefore the activity of these ubiquitin ligases explains the coordination of cell-cycle progression with the supply of substrates necessary for cell duplication. APC/C (anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome)-Cdh1, the ubiquitin ligase that controls G(1)- to S-phase transition b...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Warburg effect: the metabolic requirements of cell proliferation.
In contrast to normal differentiated cells, which rely primarily on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to generate the energy needed for cellular processes, most cancer cells instead rely on aerobic glycolysis, a phenomenon termed "the Warburg effect." Aerobic glycolysis is an inefficient way to generate adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), however, and the advantage it confers to cancer cells...
متن کاملDec2 promotes Th2 cell differentiation by enhancing IL-2R signaling.
Th cell differentiation is precisely regulated by thousands of genes at different stages. In the present study, we demonstrate that Dec2, a transcription factor belonging to the bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) superfamily, is progressively induced during the course of Th2 differentiation, especially at the late stage. The up-regulated Dec2 can strongly promote Th2 development under Th2-inducing c...
متن کاملMetabolic requirements for cancer cell proliferation
BACKGROUND The study of cancer metabolism has been largely dedicated to exploring the hypothesis that oncogenic transformation rewires cellular metabolism to sustain elevated rates of growth and division. Intense examination of tumors and cancer cell lines has confirmed that many cancer-associated metabolic phenotypes allow robust growth and survival; however, little attention has been given to...
