Differential activation of the transcription factor cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB) in macrophages following infection with pathogenic and nonpathogenic mycobacteria and role for CREB in tumor necrosis factor alpha production.
Previous studies in our laboratory have shown a differential activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in primary bone marrow-derived macrophages following infection with pathogenic Mycobacterium avium compared to the activation following infection with nonpathogenic Mycobacterium smegmatis. Additionally, M. smegmatis-infected macrophages produced significantly elevated levels...
متن کاملImpaired urinary concentrating ability and cyclic AMP in K+-depleted rat kidney.
The possibility that an alteration of the vasopressin-dependent cyclic AMP system plays a pathogenic role in the urinary concentrating defect in K+ depletion was investigated in the rat. The antidiuretic response to vasopressin was significantly less in K+-depleted rats. In these K+-depleted rats, the increase in urinary cyclic AMP excretion in response to vasopressin was also significantly les...
متن کاملThe Interplay between Cyclic AMP, MAPK, and NF-κB Pathways in Response to Proinflammatory Signals in Microglia
Cyclic AMP is an important intracellular regulator of microglial cell homeostasis and its negative perturbation through proinflammatory signaling results in microglial cell activation. Though cytokines, TNF-α and IL-1β, decrease intracellular cyclic AMP, the mechanism by which this occurs is poorly understood. The current study examined which signaling pathways are responsible for decreasing cy...
متن کاملSome Aspects of the Biological Role of Adenosine 3 ' , 5 ' - monophosphate ( Cyclic AMP )
Cyclic AMP (adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate or cyclic adenylate) has now been established as a second messenger mediating many of the effects of a variety of hormones. Severial of the metabolic effects mediated by cyclic AMP are discussed, and it is suggested that certain other ("functional" or "mechanical") hormonal effects may be similarly mediated. In particular, the evidence presented support...
متن کاملDifferential regulation of respiratory chain subunits by a CREB-dependent signal transduction pathway. Role of cyclic AMP in cytochrome c and COXIV gene expression.
In vertebrate organisms, the molecular mechanisms by which extracellular signals regulate mitochondrial function and biogenesis are largely unknown. We have previously identified multiple cis-acting elements in both cytochrome c and cytochrome oxidase subunit IV (COXIV) genes that are likely targets for the regulated expression of respiratory chain components. We now demonstrate that cytochrome...
