BACKGROUND Serum response factor (SRF) is crucial for gastric ulcer healing process. The study determined if gastric ulcer tissues up-regulate SRF and if such up-regulation correlated with co-morbidities and the risk of recurrent bleeding. METHODS Ulcer and non-ulcer tissues were obtained from 142 patients with active gastric ulcers for SRF expression assessed by immunohistochemistry. Based o...
BACKGROUND & AIMS SRF (Serum Response Factor), a widely expressed transcription factor, controls expression of mitogen-responsive and muscle-specific genes, thereby regulating the contractile actin microfilament. Genetic Srf deletion studies showed SRF to be indispensable for in vivo skeletal and cardiac muscle cell development. We now investigated for the first time in vivo SRF functions in sm...
Serum response factor (SRF) is a widely expressed protein that plays a key role in the regulation of smooth muscle differentiation, proliferation, migration, and apoptosis. It is generally accepted that one mechanism by which SRF regulates these diverse functions is through pathway-specific cofactor interactions. A novel SRF cofactor, chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 8 (CHD8), was isol...
Horizontal eye movements in humans and other vertebrates are actuated by the lateral and medial rectus muscles that are innervated by the abducens and oculomotor nuclei. Here we show by single-cell recording in the pigeon that there exist three types of abducens neurons in terms of discharge patterns, which generate the shift and/or oscillation components of a horizontal saccadic eye movement. ...
Serum response factor (SRF) regulates transcription of many serum-inducible and muscle-specific genes. Using a functional screen, we identified LIM kinase-1 as a potent activator of SRF. We show that SRF activation by LIM kinase-1 is dependent on its ability to regulate actin treadmilling. LIM kinase activity is not essential for SRF activation by serum, but signals depend on alterations in act...
RhoA and its downstream target Rho kinase regulate serum response factor (SRF)-dependent skeletal and smooth muscle gene expression. We previously reported that long-term serum deprivation reduces transcription of smooth muscle contractile apparatus encoding genes, by redistributing SRF out of the nucleus. Because serum components stimulate RhoA activity, these observations suggest the hypothes...
The current knowledge about heat nociception is mainly confined to the thermosensors, including the transient receptor potential cation channel V1 expressed in the nociceptive neurons of dorsal root ganglion (DRG). However, the loss of thermosensors only partially impairs heat nociception, suggesting the existence of undiscovered mechanisms. We found that the loss of an intracellular fibroblast...
We present a computational, biophysical model of neuron-astrocyte-vessel interaction. Unlike other cells, neurons convey "hunger" signals to the vascular network via an intervening layer of glial cells (astrocytes); vessels dilate and release glucose which fuels neuronal firing. Existing computational models focus on only parts of this loop (neuron→astrocyte→vessel→neuron), whereas the proposed...
Working memory is an emergent property of neuronal networks, but its cellular basis remains elusive. Recent data show that principal neurons of the entorhinal cortex display persistent firing at graded firing rates that can be shifted up or down in response to brief excitatory or inhibitory stimuli. Here, we present a model of a potential mechanism for graded firing. Our multicompartmental mode...
