Hormone Crosstalk: Directing the Flow
نویسندگان
چکیده
Asymmetric distribution of the hormone auxin organizes plant cell fate and drives specification of new organs. Such asymmetries are regulated by polarized auxin transporters called PINs. But what controls PIN polarity? A new study shows that another hormone, cytokinin, degrades PINs on specific membranes to direct auxin flux.

Assessment of X-Ray Crosstalk in a Computed Tomography Scanner with Small Detector Elements Using Monte Carlo Method
Introduction: Crosstalk is a leakage of X-ray or light produced in a matrix of X-ray detectors or array of photodiodes in one element to other elements affecting on image contrast and spatial resolution. In this study, we assessed X-ray crosstalk in a computed tomography (CT) scanner with small detector elements to estimate the effect of various parameters such as X-ray tube voltage, detector e...
متن کاملCrosstalk of thyroid hormone receptor and liver X receptor in lipid metabolism and beyond [Review].
Thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) and liver X receptors (LXRs) are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily. Although LXRs and TRs belong to two distinct receptor subgroups with respect to ligand-binding affinity, the two receptor systems show similarity with respect to molecular mechanism, target genes, and physiological roles. Since both TRs and LXRs play an important role in metabolic reg...

Background: The armed forces, depending on their duties and missions, need some level of physical fitness.The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of six weeks of resistance training and blood flow restriction with active and passive rest on the levels of growth hormone and physical fitness of soldiers. Materials and methods: Totally, 24 healthy young people were divided into t...
متن کاملSho1 and Pbs2 act as coscaffolds linking components in the yeast high osmolarity MAP kinase pathway.
Scaffold proteins mediate efficient and specific signaling in several mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascades. In the yeast high osmolarity response pathway, the MAP kinase kinase Pbs2 is thought to function as a scaffold, since it binds the osmosensor Sho1, the upstream MAP kinase kinase kinase Ste11, and the downstream MAP kinase Hog1. Nonetheless, previous work has shown that Ste11 c...
متن کاملThyroid hormone receptors regulate adipogenesis and carcinogenesis via crosstalk signaling with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily. They are ligand-dependent transcription factors that interact with their cognate hormone response elements in the promoters to regulate respective target gene expression to modulate cellular functions. While the transcription activity of each is regulated by t...
