Abstract: | Abundant evidence has indicated that protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) convey signals from G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs)
to regulate cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and potentialy cellular transformation. Molecular mechanisms by which
PTKs regulate such diverse effects in GPCR signaling are not well understood. Recently, an unifying theme has emerged where
both growth factors and GPCRs utilize protein tyrosine kinase activity and the highly conserved Ras/MAP kinase pathway to
control mitogenic signals. Additionally, PTKs are also involved in the regulation of signal transmission from GPCRs to activation
of the JNK/SAPK kinase pathway. Furthermore novel insights in chemokine receptor-activated PTKs and their role in mediating
cell functions are discussed in this review. |
