Diversification of TAM receptor function
Apoptotic cell clearance is critical for both tissue homeostasis and the resolution of inflammation. We found that the TAM receptor tyrosine kinases Axl and Mer played distinct roles as phagocytic receptors in these two settings, where they exhibited divergent expression, regulation, and activity. Mer acted as a tolerogenic receptor in resting macrophages and in settings of immune suppression. ...
متن کاملTAM receptor tyrosine kinase function and the immunopathology of liver disease.
Tyro3, Axl, MERTK (TAM) receptor tyrosine kinases are implicated in the regulation of the innate immune response through clearance of apoptotic cellular debris and control of cytokine signaling cascades. As a result they are pivotal in regulating the inflammatory response to tissue injury. Within the liver, immune regulatory signaling is employed to prevent the overactivation of innate immunity...
متن کاملInsulin receptor tyrosine kinase structure and function.
Six years have now elapsed since efforts to establish heterologous cell expression systems for studies of the human insulin receptor were begun. As is apparent from the results summarized in Figs. 1 and 2, a significant number of studies have been devoted to the analysis of receptor mutations, both experimentally derived (i.e. by mutagenesis) and those identified in human patients, as well as t...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of Staphylococcus aureus Protein-Tyrosine Kinase Affects the Function of Glucokinase and Biofilm Formation
Background: When Staphylococcus aureus is grown in the presence of high concentration of external glucose, this sugar is phosphorylated by glucokinase (glkA) to form glucose-6-phosphate. This product subsequently enters into anabolic phase, which favors biofilm formation. The presence of ROK (repressor protein, open reading frame, sugar kinase) motif, phosphate-1 and -2 sites, and tyrosine kina...
متن کاملReceptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitory Activities and Molecular Docking Studies of Some Pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine Derivatives
In this study, we aimed to determine VEGFR-2, EGFR and PDGFR-β tyrosine kinase inhibitory activities of some pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives previously synthesized and showed potent cytotoxic and apoptotic effects against several cancer cell lines by our group and to evaluate the relationships between inhibitory activities and binding properties of the active compounds by molecular docking...
