Free Radicals in the Physiological Control of Cell Function

Wulf Dröge
TL;DR: There is growing evidence that aging involves, in addition, progressive changes in free radical-mediated regulatory processes that result in altered gene expression.

Toll-like receptors.

TL;DR: This unit discusses mammalian Toll receptors (TLR1‐10) that have an essential role in the innate immune recognition of microorganisms and are discussed are TLR‐mediated signaling pathways and antibodies that are available to detect specific TLRs.

Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Cancer: How Are They Linked?

TL;DR: Observations to date suggest that oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and cancer are closely linked.

Nuclear factor-kappaB in cancer development and progression.

TL;DR: This article showed that NF-kappaB provides a mechanistic link between inflammation and cancer, and is a major factor controlling the ability of both pre-neoplastic and malignant cells to resist apoptosis-based tumour-surveillance mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

AP-1 function and regulation.

TL;DR: This work has shown that regulation by heterodimerization between Jun, Fos and ATF proteins, AP-1 activity is regulated through interactions with specific protein kinases and a variety of transcriptional coactivators, and there has been considerable progress in understanding some of the mechanisms and signaling pathways involved in the regulation of AP.

Jak-STAT pathways and transcriptional activation in response to IFNs and other extracellular signaling proteins

TL;DR: A previously unrecognized direct signal transduction pathway to the nucleus has been uncovered: IFN-receptor interaction at the cell surface leads to the activation of kinases of the Jak family that phosphorylate substrate proteins called STATs (signal transducers and activators of transcription).

Specificity of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling: Transient versus sustained extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation

Christopher J. Marshall
- 27 Jan 1995 - 
TL;DR: Experiments with PC12 cells suggest that the duration of ERK activation is critical for cell signaling decisions, and the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK-regulated) MAPK pathway may be sufficient for these cellular responses.

JNK1: A protein kinase stimulated by UV light and Ha-Ras that binds and phosphorylates the c-Jun activation domain

TL;DR: JNK1 is a component of a novel signal transduction pathway that is activated by oncoproteins and UV irradiation and its properties indicate that JNK1 activation may play an important role in tumor promotion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phorbol ester-inducible genes contain a common cis element recognized by a TPA-modulated trans-acting factor.

TL;DR: Results strongly suggest that AP-1 is at the receiving end of a complex pathway responsible for transmitting the effects of phorbol ester tumor promoters from the plasma membrane to the transcriptional machinery.
