The Lophotrochozoan TGF-β signalling cassette - diversification and conservation in a key signalling pathway.
TGF-β signalling plays a key role in the patterning of metazoan body plans and growth. It is widely regarded as a 'module' capable of co-option into novel functions. The TGF-β pathway arose in the Metazoan lineage, and while it is generally regarded as well conserved across evolutionary time, its components have been largely studied in the Ecdysozoa and Deuterostomia. The recent discovery of th...
متن کاملhedgehog signalling pathway: carcinogenesis and targeted therapy
hedgehog signalling pathway has not only a critical role in cell proliferation, differentiation and tissue polarity at embryonic period but also has a vital role in stem cell proliferation, tissue healing and carcinogenesis. recent research has increased our understanding of this pathway and its relation to other signalling pathways. in addition, a large number of studies confirmed the alterati...
متن کاملReelin Signalling Pathway and Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: A Causative Link?
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most frequent form of partial epilepsy. Granule cell dispersion, resulting from aberrant neuronal migration in the hippocampus, is pathognomonic of MTLE. Reelin, a secreted neurodevelopmental glycoprotein has a crucial role in controlling the radial migration of neurons. Several animal studies have implicated Reelin in the MTLE pathogenesis. The aim o...
متن کاملMagnetite (Fe3O4) nanocrystals affect the expression of genes involved in the TGF-beta signalling pathway.
An understanding of interaction of nanomaterials with living systems is fundamental to address nanosafety issues, which, in turn will dictate the future prospects of nanomedicine. Herein, we examine the molecular effects of uptake of Magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) Nanocrystals (MNC) using a transcriptomics approach. The uptake of MNC was studied by electron microscopy. This was followed by transcription...
متن کاملTGF beta signalling and its role in tumour pathogenesis.
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is a multifunctional cytokine involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and survival/or apoptosis of many cells. Knock-out experiments in mice for the three isoforms of TGF-beta have demonstrated their importance in regulating inflammation and tissue repair. TGF-beta is implicated in the pathogenesis of human diseases, including...
