Characterization of platelet-derived growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor receptor expression in asbestos-induced rat mesothelioma.
Although altered expression of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a hallmark of human mesothelioma, expression of PDGF receptors has not been characterized in this cell type. In addition, the expression of this growth factor and its cognate receptor in rodent mesothelioma has not been investigated. In this study, examination of transformed mesothelial cells derived from asbestos-induced r...
متن کاملClinicopathological significance of platelet-derived growth factor B, platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β, and E-cadherin expression in gastric carcinoma
AIM OF THE STUDY Platelet-derived growth factor B (PDGF-B), a vital growth factor which can induce angiogenesis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), is important in the metastasis of many tumors. However, the roles of PDGF-B in gastric carcinoma are largely unknown. We investigated the correlation between PDGF-B, PDGFR-β and E-cadherin expression with the clinical features of gastric ca...
متن کاملPlatelet-derived growth factor in human glioma.
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a 30 kDa protein consisting of disulfide-bonded dimers of A- and B-chains. PDGF receptors are of two types, alpha- and beta-receptors, which are members of the protein-tyrosine kinase family of receptors. The receptors are activated by ligand-induced dimerization, whereby the receptors become phosphorylated on tyrosine residues. These form attachment sit...
متن کاملModulation of muscarinic-receptor expression in human embryonic lung fibroblasts by platelet-derived growth factor.
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is known to have regulatory control of a large number of cellular components, including various receptors. We show that muscarinic acetylcholine receptors of the m2 subtype on CCL 137 human fibroblasts in culture are affected by PDGF treatment. A time-dependent down-regulation is observed in steady-state RNA levels, followed by a decrease in ligand-binding ...
متن کاملReduced platelet-derived growth factor receptor expression is a primary feature of human bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
Animal studies have shown that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) signaling is required for normal alveolarization. Changes in PDGF receptor (PDGFR) expression in infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a disease of hypoalveolarization, have not been examined. We hypothesized that PDGFR expression is reduced in neonatal lung mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from infants who develop BP...
