Cross talk between signaling and vitamin A transport by the retinol-binding protein receptor STRA6.
The plasma membrane protein STRA6 transports vitamin A from its blood carrier retinol binding protein (RBP) into cells, and it also functions as a cytokine receptor which activates JAK/STAT signaling. We show here that, unlike other cytokine receptors, phosphorylation of STRA6 is not simply induced upon binding of its extracellular ligand. Instead, activation of the receptor is triggered by STR...
متن کاملHolo-retinol-binding protein and its receptor STRA6 drive oncogenic transformation.
Vitamin A, retinol, circulates in blood bound to retinol-binding protein (RBP). At some tissues, RBP is recognized by STRA6, a plasma membrane protein that serves a dual role: it transports retinol from extracellular RBP into cells and it transduces a signaling cascade mediated by the Janus kinase JAK2 and the transcription factors STAT3 and STAT5. We show here that expression of RBP and STRA6 ...
متن کاملMatthew-Wood syndrome is caused by truncating mutations in the retinol-binding protein receptor gene STRA6.
Retinoic acid (RA) is a potent teratogen in all vertebrates when tight homeostatic controls on its endogenous dose, location, or timing are perturbed during early embryogenesis. STRA6 encodes an integral cell-membrane protein that favors RA uptake from soluble retinol-binding protein; its transcription is directly regulated by RA levels. Molecular analysis of STRA6 was undertaken in two human f...
متن کاملRBP4 disrupts vitamin A uptake homeostasis in a STRA6-deficient animal model for Matthew-Wood syndrome.
The cellular uptake of vitamin A from its RBP4-bound circulating form (holo-RBP4) is a homeostatic process that evidently depends on the multidomain membrane protein STRA6. In humans, mutations in STRA6 are associated with Matthew-Wood syndrome, manifested by multisystem developmental malformations. Here we addressed the metabolic basis of this inherited disease. STRA6-dependent transfer of ret...
متن کاملAcidic retinoids synergize with vitamin A to enhance retinol uptake and STRA6, LRAT, and CYP26B1 expression in neonatal lung.
Vitamin A (VA) is essential for fetal lung development and postnatal lung maturation. VA is stored mainly as retinyl esters (REs), which may be mobilized for production of retinoic acid (RA). This study was designed 1) to evaluate several acidic retinoids for their potential to increase RE in the lungs of VA-supplemented neonatal rats, and 2) to determine the expression of retinoid homeostatic ...
