Membrane Hormone Receptors and Their Signaling Pathways as Targets for Endocrine Disruptors

open access: yesJournal of Xenobiotics, 2022
The endocrine disruptors are mostly small organic molecules developed for numerous and very diverse industrial applications. They essentially act through nuclear receptors with small and hydrophobic endogenous ligands.

Soluble cytokine receptors [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1996
HE WORD “HORMONE” comes from the Greek, meaning to set in motion, whereas “humoral” comes from the Latin for ‘‘liquid.’’ Classical hormones are delivered in the blood “to set in motion” target cell proliferation or functional activation. Therefore, humoral specificity depends on the hormone’s ability to interact only with cells expressing the ...

Mechanisms Underlying the Functional Cooperation Between PPARα and GRα to Attenuate Inflammatory Responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Glucocorticoids (GCs) act via the glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1, GRα) to combat overshooting responses to infectious stimuli, including lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Deregulation of the Interleukin-7 Signaling Pathway in Lymphoid Malignancies

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
The cytokine interleukin-7 (IL-7) and its receptor are critical for lymphoid cell development. The loss of IL-7 signaling causes severe combined immunodeficiency, whereas gain-of-function alterations in the pathway contribute to malignant transformation ...

Glucocorticoid Receptor-mediated transactivation is hampered by Striatin-3, a novel interaction partner of the receptor

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The transcriptional activity of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is co-determined by its ability to recruit a vast and varying number of cofactors. We here identify Striatin-3 (STRN3) as a novel interaction partner of GR that interferes with GR’s ligand ...

The Orphan Cytokine Receptor CRLF3 Emerged With the Origin of the Nervous System and Is a Neuroprotective Erythropoietin Receptor in Locusts

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
The orphan cytokine receptor-like factor 3 (CRLF3) was identified as a neuroprotective erythropoietin receptor in locust neurons and emerged with the evolution of the eumetazoan nervous system.

Macrophage-derived upd3 Cytokine causes impaired glucose homeostasis and reduced lifespan in drosophila fed a lipid-rich diet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Long-term consumption of fatty foods is associated with obesity, macrophage activation and inflammation, metabolic imbalance, and a reduced lifespan. We took advantage of Drosophila genetics to investigate the role of macrophages and the pathway(s) that ...

Selective Glucocorticoid Receptor Properties of GSK866 Analogs with Cysteine Reactive Warheads

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Synthetic glucocorticoids (GC) are the mainstay therapy for treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory disorders. Due to the high adverse effects associated with long-term use, GC pharmacology has focused since the nineties on more selective GC ligand ...

Topological control of cytokine receptor signaling induces differential effects in hematopoiesis

open access: yesScience, 2019
Exploring a range of signaling Cytokines are small proteins that bind to the extracellular domains of transmembrane receptors to activate signaling pathways inside the cell.

Modifying Rap1-signalling by targeting Pde6δ is neuroprotective in models of Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2018
Background Neuronal Ca2+ dyshomeostasis and hyperactivity play a central role in Alzheimer’s disease pathology and progression. Amyloid-beta together with non-genetic risk-factors of Alzheimer’s disease contributes to increased Ca2+ influx and aberrant ...
