Growth hormone signal transduction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Growth hormone (GH) promotes animal growth by stimulating bone and cartilage cell proliferation, and influences carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Some of these effects are brought about indirectly via somatomedin induction in hepatocytes, others by acting directly on the target cells. In either case, GH first binds to specific receptors on cells to trigger a sequence of biochemical events culminating in a biological response. Recently much has been learnt about the molecular structure of GH receptor, its binding to ligand, and the ensuing signal transduction events. 相似文献

Regulation of insulin receptor function 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Youngren JF 《Cellular and molecular life sciences : CMLS》2007,64(7-8):873-891
Resistance to the biological actions of insulin contributes to the development of type 2 diabetes and risk of cardiovascular
disease. A reduced biological response to insulin by tissues results from an impairment in the cascade of phosphorylation
events within cells that regulate the activity of enzymes comprising the insulin signaling pathway. In most models of insulin
resistance, there is evidence that this decrement in insulin signaling begins with either the activation or substrate kinase
activity of the insulin receptor (IR), which is the only component of the pathway that is unique to insulin action. Activation
of the IR can be impaired by post-translational modifications of the protein involving serine phosphorylation, or by binding
to inhibiting proteins such as PC-1 or members of the SOCS or Grb protein families. The impact of these processes on the conformational
changes and phosphorylation events required for full signaling activity, as well as the role of these mechanisms in human
disease, is reviewed in this article.

外源性生长激素对改善腹腔感染时生长激素不敏感状态中的作用 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
探索了外源性生长激素对改善腹腔感染时生长激素不敏感中的作用。应用盲肠结扎穿孔法(CLP)制备腹腔感染大鼠模型,同时给予外源性生长激素;应用放射免疫法测定血清生长激素(GH)水平;应用逆转录多聚酶链反应(RT-PCR)法测定肝组织胰岛素样生长因子I(IGF-I)、生长激素受体(GHR)和细胞因子信号传导抑制体3(SOCS-3)mRNA的表达;应用ELISA测定血清肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)和白介素6(IL-6)水平。结果表明腹腔感染组大鼠血清生长激素水平与对照组无明显差异,但肝组织IGF-ImRNA表达明显下降;给予外源性生长激素后可明显降低血清TNF-α和IL-6水平,同时可更快地促使GHR和IGF-ImRNA表达的上调及下调SOCS-3mRNA的表达。腹腔感染时机体存在对生长激素的不敏感状态,给予外源性生长激素后可明显地改善感染状态下机体对生长激素的敏感性。 相似文献

Cellular and humoral immune mechanisms recruited to defend the host from infectious agents depend upon the early immune events
triggered by antigen. The cytokine milieu within which the immune response matures is the most important of many factors that
govern the nature of the immune response. Natural T cells, whose function is controlled by CD1d molecules, are an early source
of cytokines that can bestow type 1 or type 2 differentiative potential upon helper T lymphocytes. This review attempts to
illuminate the glycolipid antigen presentation properties of CD1d, how CD1d controls the function of natural T cells and how
CD1d and natural T cells interact to jump start the immune system. CD1d is postulated to function as a sensor, sensing alterations
in cellular lipid content by virtue of its affinity for such ligands. The presentation of a neo-self glycolipid, presumably
by infectious assault of antigen-presenting cells, activates natural T cells, which promptly release pro-inflammatory and
anti-inflammatory cytokines and jumpstart the immune system.

Proinflammation represents a pathophysiological state on the early stage of a number of diseases, especially the infectious and immunological ones. In recent years, proinflammation has attracted much attention, and the term 損roinflammation factors?appears frequently in the literature. While investigating leukemia and leukemic cells from the angle of 損roinflammation state? we got some intriguing findings, e.g. we detected the significantly elevated expression of proinflammation factor IL-18 in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which could up-regulate matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and specific tissue inhibitors (TIMPs). The increased MMP may play a role in the aggressiveness of myeloid leukemic cells, and be associated with a poor prognosis. This phenomenon reflects an ignored aspect of leukemia. Investigations from the angle of 損roinflammation state?have broaden the fields of tumor and leukemia study. 相似文献

In the early 1990s, the search for protein kinases led to the discovery of a novel family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases,
the Janus kinases or JAKs. These proteins were unusual because they contained two kinase homology domains and no other known
signaling modules. It soon became clear that these were not ‘just another’ type of kinase. Their ability to complement mutant
cells insensitive to interferons and to be activated by a variety of cytokines demonstrated their central signaling function.
Now, as we approach the end of the decade, it is evident from biochemical studies to knockout mice that JAKs play non-redundant
functions in development, differentiation, and host defense mechanisms. Here, recent progress is reviewed, with particular
emphasis on structure-function studies aimed at revealing how this family of tyrosine kinases is regulated. 相似文献
