Existence of Brain 5-HT1A–5-HT2A Isoreceptor Complexes with Antagonistic Allosteric Receptor–Receptor Interactions Regulating 5-HT1A Receptor Recognition
Studies on serotonin-selective reuptake inhibitors have established that disturbances in the ascending 5-HT neuron systems and their 5-HT receptor subtypes and collateral networks to the forebrain contribute to the etiology of major depression and are targets for treatment. The therapeutic action of serotonin-selective reuptake inhibitors is of proven effectiveness, but the mechanisms underlyin...
متن کاملPhytochrome signal transduction pathways are regulated by reciprocal control mechanisms.
Three signal transduction pathways, dependent on cGMP and/or calcium, are utilized by phytochrome to control the expression of genes required for chloroplast development and anthocyanin biosynthesis in plant cells. For example, chs is controlled by a cGMP-dependent pathway, cab is controlled by a calcium-dependent pathway, and fnr is regulated by a pathway that requires both cGMP and calcium. U...
متن کاملEngineering Signal Transduction Pathways
Cells respond to their environment by sensing signals and translating them into changes in gene expression. In recent years, synthetic networks have been designed in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems to create new functionalities and for specific applications. In this review, we discuss the challenges associated with engineering signal transduction pathways. Furthermore, we address advant...
متن کاملCorticosteroids regulate brain hippocampal 5-HT1A receptor mRNA expression.
Using in situ hybridization techniques, the expression of 5-HT1A receptor mRNA was measured within the hippocampal formation after bilateral adrenalectomy (ADX). After 24 hr ADX, 5-HT1A receptor mRNA expression was significantly increased in all hippocampal subfields in ADX animals relative to sham-operated controls (SHAM). The magnitude of the increase was most pronounced within CA2 (127%) and...
متن کاملSignal transduction pathways for activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase by arachidonic acid in rat neutrophils.
Phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in response to arachidonic acid (AA) was rapid and transient, peaking at 1 min and disappearing after 3 min, and it was accompanied by an increase in ERK activity in rat neutrophils. We examined the upstream regulation of AA-stimulated ERK activation using one of the following signaling pathway inhibitors to pretreat rat cells: the ...
