Despite numerous reports on the ability of ascorbic acid and β‐glycerophosphate (AA/β‐GP) to induce osteoblast differentiation, little is known about the molecular mechanisms involved in this phenomenon. In this work, we used a peptide array containing specific consensus sequences (potential substrates) for protein kinases and traditional biochemical techniques to examine the signaling pathways modulated during AA/β‐GP‐induced osteoblast differentiation. The kinomic profile obtained after 7 days of treatment with AA/β‐GP identified 18 kinase substrates with significantly enhanced or reduced phosphorylation. Peptide substrates for Akt, PI3K, PKC, BCR, ABL, PRKG1, PAK1, PAK2, ERK1, ERBB2, and SYK showed a considerable reduction in phosphorylation, whereas enhanced phosphorylation was observed in substrates for CHKB, CHKA, PKA, FAK, ATM, PKA, and VEGFR‐1. These findings confirm the potential usefulness of peptide microarrays for identifying kinases known to be involved in bone development in vivo and in vitro and show that this technique can be used to investigate kinases whose function in osteoblastic differentiation is poorly understood.

Activated factor Xa (FXa) is traditionally known as an important player in the coagulation cascade responsible for thrombin generation. Long considered a passive bystander, it is now evident that FXa exerts direct effects on a wide variety of cell types via activation of its two main receptors, protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) and PAR-2. Recent findings suggest that PAR-2 plays a crucial role in fibro-proliferative diseases such as fibrosis, tissue remodeling and cancer and point towards FXa as the important mediator coordinating the interface between coagulation and disease progression. Here, we provide an overview of the FXa signaling pathways that mediate its effects in pathophysiology and explore the potential therapeutic implications of targeting FXa; in terms of arresting disease progression, the modulation of FXa activity might be more important than the modulation of FVIIa or thrombin. 相似文献

The genus Hypochaeris has a recent evolutionary history caused by long‐distance dispersal in conjunction with adaptive radiation in the South American continent. Hypochaeris lutea is a perennial herb that grows mostly at altitudes of around 1000 m in cold swamps of the southern regions of Brazil. We investigated the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) in 270 individuals representing 11 Brazilian populations of H. lutea to elucidate the population genetic structure of this species. The frequencies of polymorphic loci and gene diversity ranged from 83.42% to 91.66% and from 0.26 to 0.34, respectively. Analysis of molecular variance revealed that most of the genetic variability was found within (76.67%) rather than among (23.3%) populations, agreeing with the pattern of genetic distribution within and among populations observed in other allogamous species of Hypochaeris. A Mantel test showed no correlation between genetic and geographic distances when all populations were considered. Simulations performed using a Bayesian approach consistently identified two clusters with different admixture proportions of individuals, as also revealed by a UPGMA dendrogram of populations. The pattern of genetic structure observed in H. lutea is consistent with a process of successive colonization events by long‐distance dispersal resembling the rapid and recent radiation that has been proposed to explain the origin of the South American species of Hypochaeris. 相似文献

The earliest responses to activation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor include a transient increase in calcium influx and a transient membrane hyperpolarization. The underlying mechanisms are, however, not well understood as yet. In the present study, we have applied patch clamp recording in the cell-attached and the outside-out mode, and fluorimetric cytosolic Ca2+ determinations, to identify the nature of the ion channels involved, to characterize their properties at the level of single channels, and to unravel their mechanism of activation. We provide evidence that activation of the EGF receptor results initially in the activation of voltage-independent Ca2+ channels that can be defined as direct receptor-operated channels. This in turn causes the activation of Ca(2+)-dependent K+ channels, which results in a (delayed) membrane hyperpolarization and then leads to the activation of a second class of Ca2+ channels that are sensitive to hyperpolarization. An autocatalytic generation of further hyperpolarization and Ca2+ influx is the predicted outcome of this ionic cascade. Based on the observed inhibitory effects of protein kinase C activation on the activity of Ca(2+)-dependent K+ channels, we propose that protein kinase C is involved in the negative regulation of this cascade, which explains the transient nature of these responses. 相似文献
