Signalling pathways: Jack of all cascades
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transcription factors that bind the c-fos promoter element SRE are targeted by multiple, independent signalling cascades; the identities of these signalling pathways and their modes of activation are being elucidated.

p38 MAPK and PI3K/AKT signalling cascades in Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative condition which has the second largest incidence rate among all other neurodegenerative disorders barring Alzheimer's disease (AD). Currently there is no cure and researchers continue to probe the therapeutic prospect in cell cultures and animal models of PD. Out of several factors contributing to PD prognosis, the role of p38 MAPKs (mitog...
متن کاملThe Full Length Hepatitis C Virus Polyprotein and Interactions with the Interferon-Beta Signalling Pathways in vitro
Background: Hepatitis C is a global health problem. The exact mechanisms by which hepatitis C virus (HCV) can evade the host immune system have become controversial. Whether HCV polyproteins modulate IFN signalling pathways or HCV proteins are responsible for such a property is the subject of interest. Therefore, an efficient baculovirus delivery system was developed to introduce the whole geno...
متن کاملThe mammalian mitogen activated protein kinase network.
The families ofMAP kinases cascades (mitogen activated protein kinases) form major signalling systems by which cells transduce extracellular signals into cellular responses. Studying the regulation of these MAP kinase signalling pathways is of utmost importance in the understanding of the triggering of cell proliferation versus cell differentiation and the responses of the cell to stress or osm...
متن کاملApoptosis: from Signalling Pathways to Therapeutic Tools
Apoptosis or programmed cell death is a gene regulated phenomenon which is important in both physiological and pathological conditions. It is characterized by distinct morphological features including chromatin condensation, cell and nuclear shrinkage, membrane blebbing and oligonucleosomal DNA fragmentation. Although, two major apoptotic pathways including 1) the death receptor (extrinsic) and...
متن کاملApoptosis Pathways in Ovarian Cancer
Tumour initiation and progression are driven by constitutively activated oncogenes mediating deregulation of the balance between cell deathand survival pathways. Among the most relevant signalling cascades activated in the majority of tumour types, the RAS/mitogen-activated protein kinase (Ras/MAPK), the phosphatidyl inositol-3kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/PKB) and the protein kinases C (PKC) s...
