Fungal ecdysteroid-22-oxidase, a new tool for manipulating ecdysteroid signaling and insect development.
Steroid hormones ecdysteroids regulate varieties of developmental processes in insects. Although the ecdysteroid titer can be increased experimentally with ease, its artificial reduction, although desirable, is very difficult to achieve. Here we characterized the ecdysteroid-inactivating enzyme ecdysteroid-22-oxidase (E22O) from the entomopathogenic fungus Nomuraea rileyi and used it to develop...
متن کاملMelanin-concentrating hormone activates signaling pathways in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
Energy homeostasis is regulated by peripheral signals, such as leptin, and by several orexigenic and anorectic neuropeptides. Recently, we reported that the orexigenic neuropeptide melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) stimulates leptin production by rat adipocytes and that the MCH receptor (MCH-R1) is present on these cells. Here, we show that MCH-R1 is present on murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Treat...
متن کاملSignaling pathways regulating protein synthesis during ageing.
Ageing in many organisms, including humans, is accompanied by marked alterations in both general and specific protein synthesis. Protein synthesis is normally under tight control by a broad array of regulatory factors, which facilitate appropriate rates of mRNA translation. Are the wide changes in protein synthesis simply a corollary of the ageing process or do they have a causative role in sen...
متن کاملSignaling pathways involved in chronic myeloid leukemia pathogenesis: the importance of targeting Musashi2-Numb signaling to eradicate leukemia stem cells
Objective(s): Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloid clonal proliferation disease defining by the presence of the Philadelphia chromosome that shows the movement of BCR-ABL1. In this study, the critical role of the Musashi2-Numb axis in determining cell fate and relationship of the axis to important signaling pathways such as Hedgehog and Notch that are essential ...
متن کاملTypes of glioma brain tumors and genetic alterations in signaling pathways in them
Types of glioma brain tumors and genetic alterations in signaling pathways in them Background & Objective: Glioma is a common type of primary brain tumor originating in the glial cells that surrounds and supports neurons in the brain. These tumors arise from three different types of cells that are normally found in the brain: astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymal cells, accordingly types ...
