A PP2A Regulatory Subunit Regulates C. elegans Insulin/IGF-1 Signaling by Modulating AKT-1 Phosphorylation
The C. elegans insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS) cascade plays a central role in regulating life span, dauer, metabolism, and stress. The major regulatory control of IIS is through phosphorylation of its components by serine/threonine-specific protein kinases. An RNAi screen for serine/threonine protein phosphatases that counterbalance the effect of the kinases in the IIS pathway identified pptr-1,...
متن کاملRegulation of TGFβ superfamily signaling by two separable domains of glypican LON-2 in C. elegans
Regulated intercellular signaling is critical for the normal development and maintenance of multicellular organisms. Glypicans have been shown to regulate signaling by TGFβs, hedgehogs and Wnts, in several cellular contexts. Glypicans comprise a conserved family of heparan sulfated, glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked extracellular proteins. The structural complexity of glypicans may unde...
متن کاملC. elegans Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Ortholog SCD-2 Controls Dauer Formation by Modulating TGF-β Signaling
BACKGROUND Different environmental stimuli, including exposure to dauer pheromone, food deprivation, and high temperature, can induce C. elegans larvae to enter the dauer stage, a developmentally arrested diapause state. Although molecular and cellular pathways responsible for detecting dauer pheromone and temperature have been defined in part, other sensory inputs are poorly understood, as are...
متن کاملDiacylglycerol lipase regulates lifespan and oxidative stress response by inversely modulating TOR signaling in Drosophila and C. elegans
Target of rapamycin (TOR) signaling is a nutrient-sensing pathway controlling metabolism and lifespan. Although TOR signaling can be activated by a metabolite of diacylglycerol (DAG), phosphatidic acid (PA), the precise genetic mechanism through which DAG metabolism influences lifespan remains unknown. DAG is metabolized to either PA via the action of DAG kinase or 2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol by...
متن کاملGalectin-8 promotes regulatory T cell differentiation by modulating IL-2 and TGFβ signaling
Galectins (Gals) have emerged as potent immunoregulatory molecules that control chronic inflammation through distinct mechanisms. Gal-8, a tandem-repeat type Gal with unique preference for α2,3-sialylated glycans, is ubiquitously expressed, but little is known about its role in T-cell differentiation. Here we report that Gal-8 promotes the polyclonal differentiation of primary mouse regulatory ...
