Signal transduction mechanisms involved in hormonal Ca2+ fluxes.
This article reviews literature up to mid-1988 covering recent developments pertaining to agonist-induced Ca2+ signaling in various cell types. A large amount of experimental evidence supports a mechanism involving specific guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G-proteins) as transducing factors between occupancy of a wide variety of receptors by many different agonists and activation of polypho...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms of opioid receptor signal transduction.
The analgesic and antidiarrhoeal uses of opium were known to the Sumerians and predynastic Egyptians. During 5000 years of medicinal use, opium has become associated with countries, cultures and prominent individuals, and through several modifications, remains an extensively used analgesic and addictive drug. Morphine, the principle active compound in opium, was first isolated by the German che...
متن کاملHormonal mechanisms of cooperative behaviour.
Research on the diversity, evolution and stability of cooperative behaviour has generated a considerable body of work. As concepts simplify the real world, theoretical solutions are typically also simple. Real behaviour, in contrast, is often much more diverse. Such diversity, which is increasingly acknowledged to help in stabilizing cooperative outcomes, warrants detailed research about the pr...
متن کاملSignal Transduction Mechanisms Underlying Growth Hormone Receptor Action
Our understanding of the mechanisms of action of GH and its receptor, the GHR, has advanced significantly in the last decade and has provided some important surprises. It is now clear that the GH-GHR axis activates a number of inter-related signalling pathways, not all of which are dependent on the intracellular tyrosine kinase, JAK2 as originally postulated. JAK2-independent pathways, mediated...
