Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) binds two distinct cell surface receptors designated p60 and p80. Our previous studies indicate that a protein kinase from U-937 cells binds to and phosphorylates the p60 receptor. While the p80 receptor is phosphorylated in vivo, no association of a protein kinase has
p70S6K is an intracellular serine/threonine kinase that mediates cell cycle progression and gene transcription. Immunofluorescent staining shows in factor-dependent hematopoietic M-07e cells that p70S6K is localized both in the cytosol and, after cytokine stimulation, also in the nucleus. We
Interleukin 1 or tumor necrosis factor alpha can cause a transient down-modulation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) binding to quiescent fibroblast monolayers; the effect results from a reduction in EGF receptor (EGF-R) affinity and appears to be mediated by a protein kinase C (PKC)-independent
Activation of the nuclear transcription factor NF-kappaB by inflammatory cytokines requires the successive action of NF-kappaB-inducing kinase (NIK) and an IKB-kinase (IKK) complex composed of IKKalpha and IKKbeta. Here we show that the Akt serine-threonine kinase is involved in the activation of
The ectodomain of certain transmembrane proteins can be released by the action of cell surface proteases, termed secretases. Here we have investigated how mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) control the shedding of membrane proteins. We show that extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)
Targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-mediated signal pathways may be a promising strategy for developing chemopreventive agents, because TNF-α-mediated cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression plays a key role in inflammation and carcinogenesis. Luteolin
The kinase TAK1, a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAP3K), has been widely accepted as a key kinase activating NF-kappaB and MAPKs in tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) signaling. We have recently reported that TAK1 regulates the transient phosphorylation and endocytosis of
BACKGROUND
Status epilepticus (SE) induces severe vasogenic edema in the piriform cortex (PC) accompanied by neuronal and astroglial damages. To elucidate the mechanism of SE-induced vasogenic edema, we investigated the roles of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption
The early growth response 1 (EGR-1) gene is induced by mitogenic and differentiating signals in diverse cell types. The present studies have examined the effects of TNF-alpha on the induction of EGR-1 expression in human myeloid leukemia cells and the potential cytoplasmic signaling cascades that
Incubation of Swiss 3T3 or L929 cells with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) leads to the rapid stimulation of several cytosolic Ser/Thr kinases active toward myelin basic protein, the S6 peptide (RRLSSLR), the G peptide (SPQPSRRGSESSEE), and Kemptide (LRRASLG). This confirms the hypothesis that kinases
The cellular pathways involved in the impairment of insulin signaling by cellular stress, triggered by the inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) or by translational inhibitors like cycloheximide and anisomycin were studied. Similar to TNF, cycloheximide and anisomycin stimulated
During chronic liver inflammation, up-regulated Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-α) targets hepatocytes and induces abnormal reactive oxygen species (ROS) production responsible for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) alterations. The serine/threonine Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 beta (GSK3β) plays a pivotal
Published sequences of cDNA for human tumor necrosis factor beta (TNF-beta) have a discrepancy within the coding region as well as exon 1. To resolve these discrepancies we have re-isolated TNF-beta cDNA from the human B cell lymphoblastoid cell line, RPMI 1788, and determined its DNA sequence.
Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activity is essential for tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha receptor 1 regulation of intestinal epithelial cell proliferation. However, the mechanism of TNF-alpha mediated activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/M1AP kinase has not been
