Tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor beta subunit activates the receptor-associated tyrosine kinase activity 总被引:32,自引:0,他引:32
The regulation of kinase activity associated with insulin receptor by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation has been examined using partially purified receptor immobilized on insulin-agarose. The immobilized receptor preparation exhibits predominately tyrosine but also serine and threonine kinase activities toward insulin receptor beta subunit and exogenous histone. Phosphorylation of the insulin receptor preparation with increasing concentrations of unlabeled ATP, followed by washing to remove the unreacted ATP, results in a progressive activation of the receptor kinase activity when assayed in the presence of histone and [gamma-32P]ATP. A maximal 4-fold activation is achieved by prior incubation of receptor with concentrations of ATP approaching 1 mM. High pressure liquid chromatographic analysis of tryptic hydrolysates of the 32P-labeled insulin receptor beta subunit reveals three domains of phosphorylation (designated peaks 1, 2, and 3). Phosphotyrosine and phosphoserine residues are present in these three domains while peak 2 contains phosphothreonine as well. Thus, at least seven sites are available for phosphorylation on the beta subunit of the insulin receptor. Incubation of the phosphorylated insulin receptor with alkaline phosphatase at 15 degrees C results in the selective dephosphorylation of the phosphotyrosine residues on the beta subunit of the receptor while the phosphoserine and phosphothreonine contents are not affected. The dephosphorylation of the receptor is accompanied by a marked 65% inhibition of the receptor kinase activity. Almost 90% of the decrease in [32P]phosphate content of the receptor after alkaline phosphatase treatment is accounted for by a decrease in phosphotyrosine content in peak 2, while very small decreases are observed in peaks 1 and 3, respectively. These results demonstrate that the extent of phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in receptor domain 2 closely parallels the receptor kinase activity state, suggesting phosphorylation of this domain may play a key role in regulating the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. 相似文献

Polylysine specifically activates the insulin-dependent insulin receptor protein kinase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We have extended these observations to examine the role of polylysine on the divalent metal ion requirement for ligand-stimulated protein kinase activity and the transmembrane signaling mechanism of both the human placenta insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) receptors. Polylysine (0.2-1 microM) was found to activate maximally the alpha 2 beta 2 heterotetrameric insulin receptor autophosphorylation and exogenous substrate protein kinase activity 25-50-fold in the presence of insulin without significantly affecting the basal protein kinase activity in the absence of insulin. The polylysine-dependent insulin stimulation of protein kinase activity required the presence of both magnesium and manganese but at relatively low divalent metal ion concentrations (0.1 mM) compared to the typical 2-10 mM Mg/Mn used in the standard in vitro kinase assays. The stimulation of the insulin receptor kinase by insulin in the presence of polylysine occurred primarily due to an increase in Vmax with no significant effect on the Km for ATP. In addition, autophosphorylated insulin receptors which are protein kinase-active and insulin-independent at high metal ion concentrations still displayed the polylysine-dependent insulin stimulation of protein kinase activity to the same extent as nonphosphorylated insulin receptors at low Mg/Mn (0.1 mM) concentrations. Surprisingly, polylysine was completely unable to stimulate the IGF-1-dependent protein kinase activity of the homologous human placenta IGF-1 receptor. These data suggest that the insulin receptor tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity may be regulated by unique endogenous basic proteins that are distinct from those which modify the IGF-1 receptor. 相似文献

The effect of monoclonal anti-insulin receptor antibodies on the intrinsic kinase activity of solubilized receptor was investigated. Antibodies for six distinct epitopes stimulated receptor autophosphorylation and kinase activity towards exogenous substrates. This effect of antibodies was seen only within a narrow concentration range and monovalent antibody fragments were ineffective. Evidence was obtained by sucrose density-gradient centrifugation for the formation of antibody-receptor complexes which involved both inter- and intra-molecular cross-linking, although stimulation of autophosphorylation appeared to be preferentially associated with the latter. There was partial additivity between the effects of insulin and antibodies in stimulating autophosphorylation, although the sites of phosphorylation appeared identical on two-dimensional peptide maps. Antibodies for two further epitopes failed to activate receptor kinase, but inhibited its stimulation by insulin. The effects of antibodies on kinase activity paralleled their metabolic effects on adipocytes, except for one antibody which was potently insulin-like in its metabolic effects, but which antagonized insulin stimulation of kinase activity. It is concluded that antibodies activate the receptor by cross-linking subunits rather than by reacting at specific epitopes. The ability of some antibodies to activate receptor may depend on receptor environment as well as the disposition of epitopes. 相似文献

Dysfunction of hepatic insulin receptor tyrosine kinase (IRTK) causes the development of type 2 diabetes. However, the molecular mechanism regulating IRTK activity in the liver remains poorly understood. Here, we show that phosphoinositide 3-kinase enhancer A (PIKE-A) is a new insulin-dependent enhancer of hepatic IRTK. Liver-specific Pike-knockout (LPKO) mice display glucose intolerance with impaired hepatic insulin sensitivity. Specifically, insulin-provoked phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt signalling is diminished in the liver of LPKO mice, leading to the failure of insulin-suppressed gluconeogenesis and hyperglycaemia. Thus, hepatic PIKE-A has a key role in mediating insulin signal transduction and regulating glucose homeostasis in the liver. 相似文献

Since the identification of the insulin receptor by insulin-binding activity almost two decades ago, our understanding of the structure and function of the insulin receptor has progressed tremendously. The importance of the intrinsic tyrosine protein kinase activity of the insulin receptor is implied by the fact that the insulin receptor belongs to a family of receptor tyrosine kinases which play a role in growth control, by experiments demonstrating the intimate association of normal kinase activity and insulin action, and by evidence that the intrinsic kinase activity can be regulated under certain conditions. There are still some major gaps in our knowledge concerning the structure/function of the insulin receptor such as how activation of the intrinsic kinase activity of the receptor leads to altered cellular physiology. The kinase may phosphorylate endogenous substrates or autophosphorylation may simply alter beta subunit conformation so it can then interact with an effector system (i.e. a serine kinase) directly, or indirectly through a G-protein. The truth may lie somewhere between these two pathways. 相似文献

We are interested in developing methods to rigorously characterize the intrinsic enzymatic activity of the insulin receptor. We have previously shown that the intact, kinase active form of the receptor can be separated from inactive forms isolated from human placenta. Therefore, the determination of kinase activity, when normalized to the number of receptors based on binding, is not complicated by the presence of insulin receptor forms which bind insulin normally, but are kinase inactive. We now have extended this separation technique to insulin receptor preparations from rat liver. Thus, the determination and comparison of the intrinsic kinase activity of insulin receptor from human placenta and rat liver was performed. When normalized to the same number of insulin receptors which are autophosphorylated to the same degree, the rat liver insulin receptor catalyzes the transfer of phosphate from ATP to three different substrates, on average, 2.8-fold quicker than receptor from human placenta. This probably represents an inherent difference in the intrinsic kinase activity (Vmax), since the values for KM of the substrates are essentially identical, for insulin receptors from both sources. Intrinsic kinase differences may reflect different biological roles and/or differential regulation by exogenous factors. We are now examining this hypothesis in light of reports that demonstrate regulation of intrinsic kinase activity of the insulin receptor in certain physiological and pathological states. 相似文献

Phorbol ester-induced serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor decreases its tyrosine kinase activity 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
The effect of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) on the function of the insulin receptor was examined in intact hepatoma cells (Fao) and in solubilized extracts purified by wheat germ agglutinin chromatography. Incubation of ortho[32P]phosphate-labeled Fao cells with TPA increased the phosphorylation of the insulin receptor 2-fold after 30 min. Analysis of tryptic phosphopeptides from the beta-subunit of the receptor by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography and determination of their phosphoamino acid composition suggested that TPA predominantly stimulated phosphorylation of serine residues in a single tryptic peptide. Incubation of the Fao cells with insulin (100 nM) for 1 min stimulated 4-fold the phosphorylation of the beta-subunit of the insulin receptor. Prior treatment of the cells with TPA inhibited the insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation by 50%. The receptors extracted with Triton X-100 from TPA-treated Fao cells and purified on immobilized wheat germ agglutinin retained the alteration in kinase activity and exhibited a 50% decrease in insulin-stimulated tyrosine autophosphorylation and phosphotransferase activity toward exogenous substrates. This was due primarily to a decrease in the Vmax for these reactions. TPA treatment also decreased the Km of the insulin receptor for ATP. Incubation of the insulin receptor purified from TPA-treated cells with alkaline phosphatase decreased the phosphate content of the beta-subunit to the control level and reversed the inhibition, suggesting that the serine phosphorylation of the beta-subunit was responsible for the decreased tyrosine kinase activity. Our results support the notion that the insulin receptor is a substrate for protein kinase C in the Fao cell and that the increase in serine phosphorylation of the beta-subunit of the receptor produced by TPA treatment inhibited tyrosine kinase activity in vivo and in vitro. These data suggest that protein kinase C may regulate the function of the insulin receptor. 相似文献

The insulin receptor is associated with a protein kinase activity. This has been shown for the receptor of liver, fat, and some other tissues which are not primary targets of insulin action. Here kinase activity is demonstrated for the insulin receptor of rat skeletal and cardiac muscle with similar characteristics. Insulin (10(-7) mol/l) stimulates phosphorylation of the 95-kDa receptor subunit 3- to 18-fold. The effect is detectable at 10(-10) mol/l insulin; the ED50 is approx. 3 X 10(-9) mol/l. The kinase phosphorylates exogenous substrate as well, and it is recovered after immunoprecipitation of the receptor with antireceptor antibody suggesting that kinase activity is intrinsic to the muscle receptor. 相似文献

We previously have shown that insulin treatment of cells greatly increases the activity of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase in immunoprecipitates made with an antibody to phosphotyrosine. However, the association of PI 3-kinase activity with the activated insulin receptor is not significant under these conditions. In the present study, we have attempted to reconstitute the association of PI 3-kinase activity with the activated insulin receptor in vitro. PI 3-kinase activity does indeed associate with the autophosphorylated insulin receptor in our in vitro system. The autophosphorylation of the insulin receptor and/or its associated conformational change appear to be necessary for the association of PI 3-kinase activity with the receptor, since kinase negative receptor failed to bind PI 3-kinase activity. After binding, PI 3-kinase or its associated protein seems to be released from the activated receptor after the completion of its tyrosine phosphorylation by the receptor. Tyr960 in the juxtamembrane region of the insulin receptor beta-subunit seems to be involved in the association of PI 3-kinase activity with the receptor, but not C terminus region of the beta-subunit including two tyrosine autophosphorylation sites (Tyr1316 and Tyr1322). The in vitro assay system for the association of PI 3-kinase activity with the insulin receptor can be utilized to study the mechanism of interaction of these molecules and will be an useful method to detect other associated molecules with the insulin receptor. 相似文献

Antiphosphotyrosine antibodies modulate insulin receptor kinase activity and insulin action 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Insulin elicits the autophosphorylation of the beta-subunit of its receptor on tyrosine residues: this effect appears to be the earliest post-binding event involved in insulin action. In the present study we have raised highly specific antibodies to phosphotyrosine residues, and we have taken advantage of these antibodies to further evaluate the role of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase in the generation of insulin's biological responses. Using a cell-free phosphorylation assay, we show here that these antibodies increase the tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor, and its phosphorylation on tyrosine residues. In contrast, the antibodies do not interfere with dephosphorylation of the insulin receptor. Introduction of the same antibodies in living Fao hepatoma cells enhances the effect of insulin on both glucose transport and aminoacid uptake. As a whole our data indicate that the insulin receptor kinase is involved in the generation of an early (glucose transport) and late (aminoacid uptake) response to insulin. Further, conformational changes in phosphotyrosine containing domains of the insulin receptor appear to modulate insulin's biological effects. Finally, the injection of antibodies in intact cells provides us with a novel and promising tool to search for cellular substrates for the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. 相似文献

Previous studies of the substrate specificity of the purified insulin receptor tyrosine kinase using synthetic random polymers have demonstrated that the receptor kinase phosphorylates poly (Glu, Tyr) 4:1 but not poly (Glu, Tyr) 1:1. In the present study, insulin treatment of Chinese hamster ovary cells overexpressing the human insulin receptor was found to stimulate the ability of their membrane extracts to phosphorylate poly (Glu, Tyr) 1:1. It was concluded that this activity was due to the receptor itself because: 1) it was precipitated with a monoclonal antibody to the receptor; 2) the addition of various membrane extracts to purified insulin receptor preparations stimulated the ability of these preparations to phosphorylate poly (Glu, Tyr) 1:1; and 3) certain purified proteins, including bovine serum albumin and casein, were also capable of stimulating the purified receptor to phosphorylate poly (Glu, Tyr) 1:1. The effect of albumin was dose-dependent; 0.5 and 10 mg/ml bovine serum albumin stimulated the phosphorylation of poly (Glu, Tyr) 1:1 by 2- and 230-fold, respectively. In contrast, albumin had no effect on the phosphorylation of poly (Glu, Tyr) 4:1. These results indicate that the activity of the insulin receptor kinase on certain substrates can be modulated by the presence of other proteins. 相似文献

Defective internalization of insulin and its receptor in cells expressing mutated insulin receptors lacking kinase activity 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The internalization and degradation of insulin was assessed in Chinese hamster ovary cell lines expressing either the wild-type receptor or mutated receptors lacking kinase activity. The mutated receptors included receptors which differed from the wild-type receptor by a single amino acid (substitution of an arginine for lysine at position 1030, a site critical for ATP binding) as well as receptors which had a deletion of 112 amino acids at the carboxyl terminus. Cells expressing mutated receptors lacking kinase activity were found to internalize and degrade insulin at about half the rate of cells expressing wild-type receptors with kinase activity. Moreover, insulin was found incapable of inducing the internalization of the mutated receptors, whereas it could stimulate the internalization of the wild-type receptor. Finally, the constitutive rate of receptor internalization was found to be the same for the mutant and wild-type receptors. These results implicate the intrinsic tyrosine-specific kinase activity of the insulin receptor in the ligand-induced, but not the constitutive, internalization of this receptor. 相似文献

This paper describes the properties of rabbit polyclonal antibodies directed against purified human insulin receptor which strongly stimulate the intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. The stimulatory effect of the antibodies on the kinase activity was obtained on the insulin receptor autophosphorylation as well as on the kinase activity towards a synthetic substrate. This stimulation is additive to that induced by insulin. Moreover, rabbit antibodies do not impair insulin binding. These data strongly suggest that antibodies and insulin act through separate pathways. This conclusion is reinforced by the differences observed on the phosphopeptide maps of the receptor's beta subunit whose phosphorylation was performed either in the presence of insulin or rabbit antibodies. Interestingly, these polyclonal antibodies can also induce an activation of the receptor autophosphorylation by interacting only with extracellular determinants. The anti-insulin receptor antibodies mimic insulin in their stimulatory effect on amino acid (AIB) uptake, but they have a different effect to that found on the kinase activity; the simultaneous addition of the antiserum and insulin failed to stimulate this amino acid transport over the level induced by a saturating concentration of hormone. 相似文献

Characterization of phosphatidylinositol kinase activity associated with the insulin receptor 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Various lipids were tested as substrates for the insulin receptor kinase using either receptor partially purified from rat hepatoma cells by wheat-germ-agglutinin-Sepharose chromatography or receptor purified from human placenta by insulin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. Phosphatidylinositol was phosphorylated to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate by the partially purified insulin receptor. In contrast, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and diacylglycerol were not phosphorylated. In some, but not all preparations of partially purified insulin receptor, the phosphatidylinositol kinase activity was stimulated by insulin (mean effect 33%). Phosphatidylinositol kinase activity was retained in insulin receptor purified to homogeneity. Insulin regulation of the phosphatidylinositol kinase was lost in the purified receptor; however, dithiothreitol stimulated both autophosphorylation of the purified receptor and phosphatidylinositol kinase activity in parallel about threefold. (Glu80Tyr20)n, a polymeric substrate specific to tyrosine kinases, inhibited the phosphatidylinositol kinase activity of the purified receptor by greater than 90% and inhibited receptor autophosphorylation by 67%. Immunoprecipitation by specific anti-receptor antibodies depleted by greater than 90% the phosphatidylinositol kinase activity in the supernatant of the purified receptor and the phosphatidylinositol kinase activity was recovered in the precipitate in parallel with receptor autophosphorylation activity. These characteristics of the phosphatidylinositol kinase activity of the purified insulin receptor and its metal ion preference paralleled those of the receptor tyrosine kinase activity and differed from bulk phosphatidylinositol kinase activity in cell extracts, which was not significantly inhibited by (Glu80Tyr20)n, stimulated by dithiothreitol or depleted by immunoprecipitation with anti-(insulin receptor) antibody. These results suggest that the insulin receptor is associated with a phosphatidylinositol kinase activity; however, this activity is not well regulated by insulin. This kinase appears to be distinct from the major phosphatidylinositol kinase(s) of cells. Its relationship to insulin action needs further study. 相似文献

Regulation of insulin receptor kinase activity by insulin mimickers and an insulin antagonist 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

Three agents which mimic insulin action in intact cells (concanavalin A, wheat germ agglutinin, and polyclonal insulin receptor antibody), mimicked insulin's ability to stimulate the kinase activity of purified insulin receptors. In contrast, monoclonal insulin receptor antibody, an antagonist of insulin action, did not stimulate the phosphorylation of the insulin receptor either in intact IM-9 cells or in purified receptor preparations. This antibody, however, antagonized the ability of insulin to stimulate the phosphorylation of the receptor both in intact cells and in the purified receptor. These studies with insulin mimickers and an insulin antagonist are consistent with a role for the kinase activity of the receptor mediating the actions of insulin. 相似文献

Polylysine activates and alters the divalent cation requirements of the insulin receptor protein tyrosine kinase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Protamine and poly(Lys) activate the protein tyrosine kinase of both the human placental insulin receptor and its purified recombinant cytoplasmic domain. Spermidine, poly(Arg) (average molecular mass 15 kDa), poly(Glu), Arg or Lys are not effective. Activation is stable, reversible, and optimal when the enzyme is preincubated with activator, divalent cation and ATP prior to the addition of exogenous protein substrates. The most striking feature of the activation is that it results in 20-30-fold stimulation of the kinase in the presence of 0.2-0.4 mM Mn2+ and induces equivalent activity in the presence of Mg2+ alone (0.4-4.0 mM). The activated protein tyrosine kinase has a specific activity (0.25-0.5 mumol/mg protein) that approaches that of well characterized protein serine kinases. 相似文献

The receptor tyrosine kinase Met and its ligand, the hepatocyte growth factor, are essential to embryonic development, whereas the deregulation of Met signaling is associated with tumorigenesis. While ligand-activated Met promotes survival, caspase-dependent generation of the p40 Met fragment leads to apoptosis induction – hallmark of the dependence receptor. Although the survival signaling pathways induced by Met are well described, the pro-apoptotic signaling pathways are unknown. We show that, although p40 Met contains the entire kinase domain, it accelerates apoptosis independently of kinase activity. In cell cultures undergoing apoptosis, the fragment shows a mitochondrial localization, required for p40 Met-induced cell death. Fulminant hepatic failure induced in mice leads to the generation of p40 Met localized also in the mitochondria, demonstrating caspase cleavage of Met in vivo. According to its localization, the fragment induces mitochondrial permeabilization, which is inhibited by Bak silencing and Bcl-xL overexpression. Moreover, Met silencing delays mitochondrial permeabilization induced by an apoptotic treatment. Thus, the Met-dependence receptor in addition to its well-known role in survival signaling mediated by its kinase activity, also participates in the intrinsic apoptosis pathway through the generation of p40 Met – a caspase-dependent fragment of Met implicated in the mitochondrial permeabilization process. 相似文献

The first step in insulin action consists in binding of the hormone to specific cell surface receptors. This receptor displays two functional domains: an extracellular alpha-subunit containing the majority or the totality of the hormone binding site and an intracellular beta-subunit possessing insulin-stimulated tyrosine kinase activity. A general consensus has been reached in favour of the idea that this receptor enzymic function is essential for generation of the metabolic and growth-promoting effects of insulin. Concerning the mechanism of transmembrane signalling, we like to think that interaction of insulin with the receptor alpha-subunit triggers a conformational change, which is propagated to the beta-subunit and activates it. The active receptor kinase leads then to the phosphorylation of cellular protein substrates, which are likely to belong to two broad categories, those generating metabolic effects of insulin and those resulting in growth-promoting effects. The phosphorylated and active substrates then generate the final effects of insulin. 相似文献

Anti-peptide antibodies directed against a highly-conserved sequence of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase domain have been used to study the relationship between this specific region and kinase activation. Antibodies have been prepared by the injection into a rabbit of a synthetic peptide (P2) corresponding to residues 1110-1125 of the proreceptor. The peptide exhibits 88-95% sequence similarity with the corresponding sequence in the v-ros protein and in receptors for epidermal growth factor and for insulin-like growth factor 1. Two antibodies with different specificities could be separated from total antiserum obtained after immunization with P2. One antibody [anti-(P-Tyr)] cross-reacted with phosphotyrosine and immunoprecipitated solely autophosphorylated receptors. This antibody was shown to increase or decrease the receptor tyrosine kinase activity depending on its concentration. In all circumstances receptor autophosphorylation and substrate phosphorylation were modulated in a parallel fashion. The second antibody (anti-P2) failed to immunoprecipitate the insulin receptor, but was found to interact with both the peptide and the receptor by e.l.i.s.a. assay. Using a tyrosine co-polymer we found that anti-P2 activated the insulin receptor kinase leading to substrate phosphorylation at a level similar to that observed with insulin. This effect was additive to the hormonal effect. In contrast, receptor autophosphorylation was not modified by the anti-peptide. The differential effect of this anti-peptide further supports the idea that receptor autophosphorylation and kinase activity towards exogenous substrates might be independently regulated. Finally, our data suggest that conformational changes in the receptor tyrosine kinase domain may be sufficient for activation of its enzymic activity. 相似文献

Tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor beta subunit activates the receptor tyrosine kinase in intact H-35 hepatoma cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The phosphorylation characteristics of insulin receptor from control and insulin-treated rat H-35 hepatoma cells 32P-labeled to equilibrium have been documented. The 32P-labeled insulin receptor is isolated by immunoprecipitation with patient-derived insulin receptor antibodies in the presence of phosphatase and protease inhibitors to preserve the native phosphorylation and structural characteristics of the receptor. The unstimulated insulin receptor contains predominantly [32P] phosphoserine and trace amounts of [32P]phosphothreonine in its beta subunit. In response to insulin, the insulin receptor beta subunit exhibits marked tyrosine phosphorylation and a 2-fold increase in total [32P]phosphoserine contents. High pressure liquid chromatography of the tryptic hydrolysates of the 32P-labeled receptor beta subunit from quiescent cells results in the resolution of up to 9 fractions containing [32P]phosphoserine. The insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation is concentrated in two of these receptor phosphopeptide fractions, whereas the increase in [32P]phosphoserine content is scattered in low abundance over all receptor tryptic fractions. Insulin receptors affinity-purified by lectin- and insulin-agarose chromatographies from insulin-treated, 32P-labeled cells exhibit a 22-fold increase in the Vmax of receptor tyrosine kinase activity toward histone when compared to controls. The elevated kinase activity of the insulin receptor derived from insulin-treated cells is not due to the presence of hormone bound to the receptor because the receptor kinase activity is assayed while immobilized on insulin-agarose. Furthermore, the insulin-activated receptor kinase activity is reversed following dephosphorylation of the receptor beta subunit with alkaline phosphatase in vitro. The correlation between the insulin-stimulated site specific tyrosine phosphorylation on receptor beta subunit and the elevation of receptor tyrosine kinase activity strongly suggests that the insulin receptor kinase is activated by hormone-stimulated autophosphorylation on tyrosine residues in intact cells, as previously demonstrated for the purified receptor. 相似文献
