As sessile organisms, plants are exposed to pathogen invasions and environmental fluctuations. To overcome the challenges of their surroundings, plants acquire the potential to sense endogenous and exogenous cues, resulting in their adaptability. Hence, plants have evolved a large collection of plasma membrane-resident receptors, including RECEPTOR-LIKE KINASEs(RLKs) and RECEPTOR-LIKE PROTEINs(RLPs) to perceive those signals and regulate plant growth,development, and immunity. The ability of RLKs and RLPs to recognize distinct ligands relies on diverse categories of extracellular domains evolved. Co-regulatory receptors are often required to associate with RLKs and RLPs to facilitate cellular signal transduction. RECEPTOR-LIKE CYTOPLASMIC KINASEs(RLCKs) also associate with the complex, bifurcating the signal to key signaling hubs, such as MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASE(MAPK) cascades, to regulate diverse biological processes. Here, we discuss recent knowledge advances in understanding the roles of RLKs and RLPs in plant growth, development, and immunity, and their connection with co-regulatory receptors, leading to activation of diverse intracellular signaling pathways.  相似文献

Obesity instigates various health problems such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, and cancer. Resistin, an adipose tissue‐specific secretory adipokine, operates endocrine functions through increasing insulin resistance. Vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) migrate into the subendothelial space and proliferate, thereby contributing to neointimal formation in atherosclerosis and restenosis. The aim of this study was to elucidate whether celastrol obtained from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook, inhibited human aortic SMC migration. Celastrol capable of antagonizing inflammatory responses attenuated the resistin secretion from THP‐1‐derived macrophages. The macrophage‐conditioned media promoted SMC proliferation and MMP‐2 production, which was dampened by 10–100 nM celastrol. Celastrol encumbered the SMC migration in response to 50 ng/ml resistin, concomitant with the inhibition of induction of connective tissue growth factor and collagen I/IV. In addition, celastrol disabled human aortic SMC exposed to resistin from migrating. The resistin‐induced shedding of integrin β2/β3 expression was demoted by celastrol, thereby contributing to the inhibition of collagen matrix‐SMC interaction. Next, resistin‐induced Toll‐like receptor‐4 (TLR‐4) expression was abrogated by celastrol, indicating that TLR‐4 was the resistin signaling receptor that was blocked by celastrol. Collectively, these results demonstrate that anti‐inflammatory celastrol blunted the macrophage secretion of the adipokine resistin, and suppressed the SMC migration by disturbing the interaction between SMC and intimal collagen matrix. Therefore, celastrol may inhibit atherogenic migration of vascular SMC upon resistin loading by intimal macrophages within atherosclerotic lesions. J. Cell.

p53 protein, the central molecule of the apoptosis pathway, is mutated in 50% of the human cancers. Of late, p53 homologues have been identified from different invertebrates including Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans, Squid, and Clams. We report the identification of a p53‐like protein in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells, which is activated during oxidative stress, caused by exposure to UV‐B or H2O2, and binds to p53 consensus DNA binding motifs as well as other p53 cognate motifs. Sf9 p53 motif‐binding protein is similar to murine and Drosophila p53 in terms of molecular size, which is around 50–60 kDa, as evident from UV cross‐linking, and displays DNA binding characteristics similar to both insect and vertebrate p53 as seen from electrophoretic mobility shift assays. The N‐terminal sequencing of the purified Sf9 p53 motif‐binding protein reveals extensive homology to the pro‐apoptotic FK‐506 binding protein (FKBP‐46), earlier identified in Sf9 cells as a factor which interacts with murine casein kinase. FKBP, an evolutionarily conserved protein of mammalian origin functions as a pro‐apoptotic factor. Identification of FKBP‐46 as a novel p53 motif‐binding protein in insect cells adds a new facet to our understanding of the mechanisms of apoptosis under oxidative stress in the absence of a typical p53 homologue.
