Journal ArticleDOI
Signaling through phosphatidylcholine breakdown.
TL;DR: The rapid formation of high concentrations of this lipid during stimulation by agonists strongly suggests that it has signaling functions, and the prolonged formation of DAG from PC may be important in cellular control mechanisms that require long term activation of protein kinase C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activation of the zeta isozyme of protein kinase C by phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate.
TL;DR: The results suggest that PKC zeta may be a target for PIP3 and thus may be involved in the signaling mechanism(s) for growth factors and oncogenes that increase phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphatidylcholine breakdown and signal transduction
TL;DR: PC hydrolysis by PLA2, PLC or PLD is a widespread response elicited by most growth factors, cytokines, neurotransmitters, hormones and other extracellular signals and the mechanisms can involve G-proteins, PKC, Ca2+ and tyrosine kinase activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activation of the beta 1 isozyme of phospholipase C by alpha subunits of the Gq class of G proteins.
TL;DR: It is reported that this G protein specifically activates the β1 isozyme, but not the γ1 and δ1 isozymes of phospholipase C and it is shown that this protein is related to the Gq class of G protein α subunits12.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autocrine tumor necrosis factor alpha links endoplasmic reticulum stress to the membrane death receptor pathway through IRE1α-mediated NF-κB activation and down-regulation of TRAF2 expression
TL;DR: Investigation finds that inhibiting NF-κB significantly decreased ER stress-induced cell death in a caspase-8-dependent manner, and suggests that ER stress induces two signals, namely TNF-α induction and TRAF2 down-regulation, which work in concert to amplify ER-initiated apoptotic signaling through the membrane death receptor.
