Adhesion signalling complexes
Intercellular communication in metazoa not only requires autocrine, paracrine and exocrine signalling systems, but it also relies on the structural and positional information encoded in extracellular matrices (ECMs). Most cells in tissues are structurally and functionally integrated with their surrounding ECM in a highly organised manner involving thousands of dynamic connections. On the intrac...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal control of cAMP signalling processes by anchored signalling complexes.
Ligand-induced changes in cAMP concentration vary in duration, amplitude and extension into the cell. cAMP microdomains are shaped by adenylate cyclases that form cAMP as well as PDEs (phosphodiesterases) that degrade cAMP. Various extracellular signals converge on the cAMP/PKA (protein kinase A) pathway through ligand binding to GPCRs (G-protein-coupled receptors) and the cAMP/PKA pathway is t...
متن کاملFocal adhesion kinase: structure and signalling.
Studies on the attachment and spreading of cells in culture have provided valuable insights into the mechanisms by which cells transmit information from the outside to the inside of the cell. This brief review considers recent information on the role of focal adhesion-associated protein tyrosine kinases in integrin-regulated cell signalling.
متن کاملChaperone signalling complexes in Alzheimer's disease
Molecular chaperones and heat shock proteins (Hsp) have emerged as critical regulators of proteins associated with neurodegenerative disease pathologies. The very nature of the chaperone system, which is to maintain protein quality control, means that most nascent proteins come in contact with chaperone proteins. Thus, amyloid precursor protein (APP), members of the gamma-secretase complex (pre...
متن کاملHierarchical assembly of cell-matrix adhesion complexes.
The adhesion of cells to the extracellular matrix is a dynamic process, mediated by a series of cell-surface and matrix-associated molecules that interact with each other in a spatially and temporally regulated manner. These interactions play a major role in tissue formation, cellular migration and the induction of adhesion-mediated transmembrane signals. In this paper, we show that the formati...
