Regulation of cellular calcium through signaling cross-talk involves an intricate interplay between the actions of receptors, G-proteins, and second messengers.

چکیده
Various external stimuli regulate cellular Ca2+ fluxes. Information from these stimuli is transmitted to the cell interior by signal transducing systems that involve interactions between receptors, G-proteins, and enzymes that generate second messengers. The possible mechanisms by which "cross-talk" within and between these second messenger-generating systems provides an intricate molecular avenue for fine modulation of intracellular Ca2+ are reviewed.

Cross-Talk between Signaling Pathways Can Generate Robust Oscillations in Calcium and cAMP
BACKGROUND To control and manipulate cellular signaling, we need to understand cellular strategies for information transfer, integration, and decision-making. A key feature of signal transduction is the generation of only a few intracellular messengers by many extracellular stimuli. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here we model molecular cross-talk between two classic second messengers, cyclic...
متن کاملThe Jak-Stat Signaling Pathway of Interferons System: Snapshots
Interferons (IFNs) are a family of small regulatory glycoproteins that play a central role in the defense against viral infections. Although IFNs have been initially discovered as antiviral factors, today they are known as an integral part of the cytokine network that affect a wide range of biological processes. IFNs exert their pleiotropic effects through their multisubunit cell surface recept...
متن کاملReciprocal cross-talk between P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptors at the level of calcium signaling in human platelets.
Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), an important platelet agonist, acts through 2 G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), P2Y(1) and P2Y(12), which signal through Gq and Gi, respectively. There is increasing evidence for cross-talk between signaling pathways downstream of GPCRs and here we demonstrate cross-talk between these 2 ADP receptors in human platelets. We show that P2Y(12) contributes to platele...

متن کاملThe glucocorticoid receptor signalling in breast cancer
Glucocorticoids are provided as co-medication with chemotherapy in breast cancer, albeit several lines of evidence indicate that their use may have diverse effects and in fact may inhibit chemosensitivity. The molecular basis of glucocorticoid-induced resistance to chemotherapy in breast cancer remains poorly defined. Recent researchers, in an attempt to clarify some aspects of the underlying p...
