Notch governing mature T cell differentiation 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The differentiation of naive T cells to effector/memory T cells is regulated by a variety of factors. The recent advance of the contribution of Notch signaling in this differentiation step has provided a new path to better understand the acquisition or persistence of effector function of mature T cells. In this review, we summarize emerging and, in some points, conflicting evidence for Notch signaling on mature T cell activation and differentiation. 相似文献

Regulation of proliferation and differentiation in keratinocyte is a complex and dynamic process that involves activation of multiple signaling pathways triggered by different growth factors. Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) is not only a potent mitogen, but differently from other growth factors, is a potent inducer of differentiation. The MAP kinase and AKT pathways are involved in proliferation and differentiation of many cell types including keratinocytes. We investigated here the role of KGF in modulating AKT and MAPK activity during differentiation of human keratinocytes. Our results show that the mechanisms of action of KGF are dose-dependent and that a sustained activation of the MAPK signaling cascade causes a negative regulation of AKT. We also demostrated increasing expression of KGFR substrates, such as PAK4 during keratinocyte differentiation parallel to the receptor upregulation. 相似文献

Wnt信号通路包括经典通路和非经典通路两种,其中Wnt经典通路又称为Wnt/β-catenin通路,其在成骨细胞的分化、增殖过程中发挥这重要的作用。Wnt信号通路实现过程中有多种因子参与,包括Wnt蛋白、β-catenin、蛋白激酶GSK-3β以及APC蛋白等多种。Wnt蛋白家族是由19种Wnt蛋白组成的,主要分为经典Wnt蛋白和非经典Wnt蛋白,其本质是一系列高度保守的分泌性糖蛋白,并且不同的Wnt蛋白对成骨细胞发挥着不同的作用,其中经典Wnt蛋白通过经典Wnt信号作用于成骨细胞对成骨细胞的增殖、分化有着重要的影响。本综述通过对Wnt经典信号通路过程中的多种因子与成骨细胞分化、增殖的关系进行分析总结,了解Wnt/β-catenin通路对成骨细胞的作用。 相似文献

Although much is known about signaling factors downstream of Rho GTPases that contribute to epidermal differentiation, little is known about which upstream regulatory proteins (guanine nucleotide exchange factors [GEFs] or GTPase-activating proteins [GAPs]) are involved in coordinating Rho signaling in keratinocytes. Here we identify the GEF breakpoint cluster region (Bcr) as a major upstream regulator of RhoA activity, stress fibers, and focal adhesion formation in keratinocytes. Loss of Bcr reduced expression of multiple markers of differentiation (such as desmoglein-1 [Dsg1], keratin-1, and loricrin) and abrogated MAL/SRF signaling in differentiating keratinocytes. We further demonstrated that loss of Bcr or MAL reduced levels of Dsg1 mRNA in keratinocytes, and ectopic expression of Dsg1 rescued defects in differentiation seen upon loss of Bcr or MAL signaling. Taken together, these data identify the GEF Bcr as a regulator of RhoA/MAL signaling in keratinocytes, which in turn promotes differentiation through the desmosomal cadherin Dsg1. 相似文献

脂肪组织不仅在维持机体能量代谢和稳态上发挥重要作用,同时也是重要的内分泌器官。脂肪细胞分化是由间充质干细胞(Mesenchymal stem cells, MSC)向成熟脂肪细胞分化的复杂生理过程,该过程由大量转录因子、激素、信号通路分子协同调控。miRNA作为内源性非编码RNA,主要通过抑制转录后翻译等机制来调控基因表达。近年来越来越多的证据表明miRNA通过调控脂肪细胞分化相关的转录因子和重要信号分子进而影响动物脂肪细胞的分化和脂肪形成。本文对miRNA影响动物白色、棕色和米色脂肪细胞分化的作用机制及其相关调控通路和关键因子进行了归纳总结,以期为肥胖等代谢性疾病的治疗提供一定的理论指导和新的治疗思路。 相似文献

Previous studies of the developing lens have shown that Notch signaling regulates differentiation of lens fiber cells by maintaining a proliferating precursor pool in the anterior epithelium. However, whether Notch signaling is further required after the onset of fiber cell differentiation is not clear. This work investigates the role of Notch2 and Jagged1 (Jag1) in secondary fiber cell differentiation using rat lens epithelial explants undergoing FGF-2 dependent differentiation in vitro. FGF induced Jag1 expression and Notch2 signaling (as judged by the appearance of activated Notch2 Intracellular Domain (N2ICD)) within 12-24 h. These changes were correlated with induction of the Notch effector, Hes5, upregulation of N-cadherin (N-cad), and downregulation of E-cadherin (E-cad), a cadherin switch characteristic of fiber cell differentiation. Induction of Jag1 was efficiently blocked by U0126, a specific inhibitor of MAPK/ERK signaling, indicating a requirement for signaling through this pathway downstream of the FGF receptor. Other growth factors that activate MAPK/ERK signaling (EGF, PDGF, IGF) did not induce Jag1. Inhibition of Notch signaling using gamma secretase inhibitors DAPT and L-685,458 or anti-Jag1 antibody markedly decreased FGF-dependent expression of Jag1 demonstrating Notch-dependent lateral induction. In addition, inhibition of Notch signaling reduced expression of N-cad, and the cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor, p57Kip2, indicating a direct role for Notch signaling in secondary fiber cell differentiation. These results demonstrate that Notch-mediated lateral induction of Jag1 is an essential component of FGF-dependent lens fiber cell differentiation. 相似文献

Directed neural differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) enables researchers to generate diverse neuronal populations for human neural development study and cell replacement therapy. To realize this potential, it is critical to precisely understand the role of various endogenous and exogenous factors involved in neural differentiation. Cell density, one of the endogenous factors, is involved in the differentiation of human ESCs. Seeding cell density can result in variable terminal cell densities or localized cell densities (LCDs), giving rise to various outcomes of differentiation. Thus, understanding how LCD determines the differentiation potential of human ESCs is important. The aim of this study is to highlight the role of LCD in the differentiation of H9 human ESCs into neuroectoderm (NE), the primordium of the nervous system. We found the initially seeded cells form derived cells with variable LCDs and subsequently affect the NE differentiation. Using a newly established method for the quantitative examination of LCD, we demonstrated that in the presence of induction medium supplemented with or without SMAD signaling blockers, high LCD promotes the differentiation of NE. Moreover, SMAD signaling blockade promotes the differentiation of NE but not non-NE germ layers, which is dependent on high LCDs. Taken together, this study highlights the need to develop innovative strategies or techniques based on LCDs for generating neural progenies from human ESCs. 相似文献

Several members of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) superfamily are expressed in the developing murine epidermis. Among these are TGFbeta1, which is found in the basal layer, and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-6, located in the suprabasal layers. Although the role of TGFbeta in cell growth has been studied extensively, little is known about the effects of these factors on keratinocyte differentiation. This study demonstrates that BMP-6 acts to positively regulate the differentiation of primary skin keratinocytes grown in culture. In contrast, TGFbeta1 antagonizes keratinocyte differentiation blocking the upregulation of keratin markers by BMP-6. We show that the effects of BMP-6 on expression of keratin 1 (K1), a marker of differentiation, requires signaling through the Smad pathway. In addition, regulation of K1 levels by BMP-6 is modulated by the SEK signaling pathway. This suggests that regulation of keratinocyte differentiation by BMP-6 involves multiple signaling systems. 相似文献
