Epidermal growth factor receptor signaling [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2001
Inhibitory signaling is an important way of fine tuning EGFR activity to enable a cell to discriminate between short and prolonged exposure to signaling molecules. Over the last few years a number of different mechanisms have been shown to abrogate receptor activity (Fig. 3Fig. 3). First, inhibitory signaling molecules are expressed in response to EGFR

Recent Topics in Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism, 2018
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare genetic disease that is characterized by the formation of heterotopic bone tissues in soft tissues, such as skeletal muscle, ligament, and tendon.

Regulation of Neuromodulator Receptor Efficacy - Implications for Whole-Neuron and Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Neurobiology 72(6), pp 399-415, April 2004, 2004
Membrane receptors for neuromodulators (NM) are highly regulated in their distribution and efficacy - a phenomenon which influences the individual cell's response to central signals of NM release. Even though NM receptor regulation is implicated in the pharmacological action of many drugs, and is also known to be influenced by various environmental ...

Fluctuating fitness shapes the clone size distribution of immune repertoires [PDF]

open access: yesPNAS 113 (2) 274-279 (2016), 2015
The adaptive immune system relies on the diversity of receptors expressed on the surface of B and T-cells to protect the organism from a vast amount of pathogenic threats. The proliferation and degradation dynamics of different cell types (B cells, T cells, naive, memory) is governed by a variety of antigenic and environmental signals, yet the observed

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Endothelial platelet-derived growth factor-mediated activation of smooth muscle platelet-derived growth factor receptors in pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
Platelet-derived growth factor is one of the major growth factors found in human and mammalian serum and tissues. Abnormal activation of platelet-derived growth factor signaling pathway through platelet-derived growth factor receptors may contribute to ...

Growth factors and their receptors in neuropathic diabetic foot ulcers of different durations

open access: yesСахарный диабет, 2023
BACKGROUND. Growth factors play a leading role in wound healing. Their deficiency in diabetic foot syndrome has been demonstrated in experimental studies, most of them performed on acute wounds.
