The G12 family of heterotrimeric G proteins promotes breast cancer invasion and metastasis.
Although the prognosis for patients with early-stage breast cancer has improved, the therapeutic options for patients with locally advanced and metastatic disease are limited. To improve the treatment of these patients, the molecular mechanisms underlying breast cancer invasion and metastasis must be understood. In this study, we report that signaling through the G12 family of heterotrimeric G ...
متن کاملMechanisms of regulation of phospholipase D1 and D2 by the heterotrimeric G proteins G13 and Gq.
Our earlier studies of rat brain phospholipase D1 (rPLD1) showed that the enzyme could be activated in cells by alpha subunits of the heterotrimeric G proteins G(13) and G(q). Recently, we showed that rPLD1 is modified by Ser/Thr phosphorylation and palmitoylation. In this study, we first investigated the roles of these post-translational modifications on the activation of rPLD1 by constitutive...
متن کاملA role for the G12 family of heterotrimeric G proteins in prostate cancer invasion.
Many studies have suggested a role for the members of the G12 family of heterotrimeric G proteins (Galpha12 and Galpha13) in oncogenesis and tumor cell growth. However, few studies have examined G12 signaling in actual human cancers. In this study, we examined the role of G12 signaling in prostate cancer. We found that expression of the G12 proteins is significantly elevated in prostate cancer....
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولHeterotrimeric G proteins of the Gq/11 family are crucial for the induction of maternal behavior in mice.
Heterotrimeric G proteins of the G(q/11) family transduce signals from a variety of neurotransmitter receptors and have therefore been implicated in several functions of the central nervous system. To investigate the potential role of G(q/11) signaling in behavior, we generated mice which lack the alpha-subunits of the two main members of the G(q/11) family, Galpha(q) and Galpha(11), selectivel...
