alpha2 adrenoceptors are involved in the regulation of the gripping-induced immobility episodes in taiep rats.
In 1989 Holmgren et al. (Holmgren et al. 1989 Lab Anim Sci 39:226-228) described a new mutant rat that developed a progressive motor disturbance during its lifespan. The syndrome is characterized by a tremor in the hind limbs followed by ataxia, episodes of tonic immobility, epilepsy, and paralysis. The acronym of these symptoms (taiep) became the name of this autosomic, recessive mutant rat. T...
متن کاملAltered signal transduction in SLE T cells.
T cells from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus display numerous signalling abnormalities. The T cell receptor complex is rewired with the common FcRgamma chain replacing the CD3 zeta chain while the T cell surface membrane lipid rafts are aggregated. These two aberrations result in enhanced early signalling events and altered downstream signalling events. These are in turn responsible ...
متن کاملMechanisms of Cellular Signal Transduction
Editorial Signal transduction is essential for almost all aspects of eukaryotic cell function and for the development of metazoans. In the classic case of signaling mediated by a growth factor, binding of the hormone to its receptor initiates a process that starts with the autoor cross-phosphorylation of the receptor. The activating signal is then propagated through intracellular signaling path...
متن کاملMechanisms of inhibin signal transduction.
Inhibin was first identified as a gonadal hormone that potently inhibits pituitary follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) synthesis and secretion. Although the notion of a nonsteroidal, gonadally derived inhibitory substance was realized in the early 1930s (McCullagh, 1932), identification of the hormone was not accomplished until more than 50 years later. At that time, inhibin was purified from bo...
متن کاملAllosteric mechanisms of signal transduction.
Forty years ago, a simple model of allosteric mechanisms (indirect interactions between distinct sites), used initially to explain feedback-inhibited enzymes, was presented by Monod, Wyman, and Changeux. We review the MWC theory and its applications for the understanding of signal transduction in biology, and also identify remaining issues that deserve theoretical and experimental substantiation.
