Epigenetic regulation of diacylglycerol kinase alpha promotes radiation-induced fibrosis
Radiotherapy is a fundamental part of cancer treatment but its use is limited by the onset of late adverse effects in the normal tissue, especially radiation-induced fibrosis. Since the molecular causes for fibrosis are largely unknown, we analyse if epigenetic regulation might explain inter-individual differences in fibrosis risk. DNA methylation profiling of dermal fibroblasts obtained from b...
متن کاملRegulation of Macropinocytosis by Diacylglycerol Kinase ζ.
Macropinosomes arise from the closure of plasma membrane ruffles to bring about the non-selective uptake of nutrients and solutes into cells. The morphological changes underlying ruffle formation and macropinosome biogenesis are driven by actin cytoskeleton rearrangements under the control of the Rho GTPase Rac1. We showed previously that Rac1 is activated by diacylglycerol kinase ζ (DGKζ), whi...
متن کاملRegulation of Diacylglycerol Kinase by Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase Lipid Products*
Diacylglycerol kinase (DAGK ), like all type I DAGKs, has calcium regulatory motifs that act as negative regulators of enzyme activity and localization. Accordingly, DAGK is activated by phospholipase C-coupled receptors in a calcium-dependent manner. One of the first functions attributed to DAGK in lymphocytes was that of regulating interleukin 2-induced cell cycle entry. Interleukin-2 nonethe...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of tumor necrosis factor alpha.
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) is a potent cytokine which regulates inflammation via the induction of adhesion molecules and chemokine expression. Its expression is known to be regulated in a complex manner with transcription, message turnover, message splicing, translation, and protein cleavage from the cell surface all being independently regulated. This study examined both cell line...
متن کاملMolecular Pathways: Targeting Diacylglycerol Kinase Alpha in Cancer.
Lipid kinases have largely been neglected as targets in cancer, and an increasing number of reports suggest diacylglycerol kinase alpha (DGKα) may be one with promising therapeutic potential. DGKα is one of 10 DGK family members that convert diacylglycerol (DAG) to phosphatidic acid (PA), and both DAG and PA are critical lipid second messengers in the plasma membrane. A host of important oncoge...
