Neural cell adhesion molecule regulates the cellular response to fibroblast growth factor.
Neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) mediates cell-cell adhesion and signaling in the nervous system, yet NCAM is also expressed in non-neural tissues, in which its function has in most parts remained elusive. We have previously reported that NCAM stimulates cell-matrix adhesion and neurite outgrowth by activating fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling. Here, we investigated whether...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factor-regulated palmitoylation of the neural cell adhesion molecule determines neuronal morphogenesis.
During development of the nervous system, short- and long-range signals cooperate to promote axonal growth, guidance, and target innervation. Particularly, a short-range signal transducer, the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), stimulates neurite outgrowth via mechanisms that require posttranslational modification of NCAM and signaling via receptors to a long-range messenger, the fibroblast ...
متن کاملCo-localization of neural cell adhesion molecule and fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 in early embryo development.
During development there is a multitude of signaling events governing the assembly of the developing organism. Receptors for signaling molecules such as fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) enable the embryo to communicate with the surrounding environment and activate downstream pathways. The neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) was first characterized as a cell adhesion molecule highly ...
متن کاملOrganization and reorganization of neuromuscular junctions in mice lacking neural cell adhesion molecule, tenascin-C, or fibroblast growth factor-5.
Many proteins have been hypothesized to mediate intercellular interactions that regulate the formation, maturation, and maintenance of the skeletal neuromuscular junction. Three of the best characterized of these are a membrane-associated adhesion molecule, neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM), an extracellular matrix component, tenascin-C, and a soluble growth factor, fibroblast growth factor...
متن کاملEssential role of junctional adhesion molecule-1 in basic fibroblast growth factor-induced endothelial cell migration.
OBJECTIVE Recently, we have shown that blocking of junctional adhesion molecule-1/A (JAM-1/A) inhibits basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-induced angiogenesis. Because the process of endothelial cell proliferation is a key initial step of neovascularization, we studied the effect of functional knockdown of JAM-1 on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) adhesion and migration induced ...
