P38 MAPK信号传导通路是MAPK通路的分支之一,介导了应激、炎性细胞因子、细菌产物等多种刺激引起的细胞反应,对细胞周期调控具有重要作用.但对不同的卵巢癌细胞系,或者不同的刺激,P38通路的作用不完全相同,甚至可能相反,提示对P38通路的功能仍需进一步的研究,他可能是肿瘤治疗的新靶点.本文就P38 MAPK信号传导通路与卵巢癌关系作一综述。
转化生长因子-β(transforming growth factor-β,TGF-β)受体Ⅲ,又称为β蛋白聚糖(betaglycan),是一种膜锚定蛋白。TGF-β受体Ⅲ是表达最为丰富的TGF-β受体,曾被认为是TGF-β超家族(包括TGF-β、激活素和抑制素等)的辅助受体。后来研究表明,它在介导和调节TGF-β的信号转导中具有非常重要的、不可替代的作用。它通过与TGF-β形成复合体来介导对靶细胞的作用。在没有TGF配体的情况下,TGF-β受体Ⅲ可以激活p38信号,表明这一受体可能与不依赖TGF-β的信号通路相互作用。TGFβ受体Ⅲ还可以结合并调节抑制素的信号转导。TGFβ受体Ⅲ与抑制素A结合,形成一个稳定的高亲和复合物。体外研究表明,TGFβ受体III还结合抑制素B和强化抑制素与Ⅱ型激活素受体的关系。有关报道显示TGFβ受体Ⅲ在卵巢癌中具有肿瘤抑制的作用。研究表明,在上皮源性卵巢癌中,TGFβ受体Ⅲ
而且 mRNA和蛋白质表达降低或丢失,丢失的程度与肿瘤分级相关。有很多因素可以影响并调节该受体的表达,如雌激素、卵泡刺激素(FSH)、TGF-β1等,深入开展相关机制的研究,对于癌症的治疗和预防将会起到一定的推动作用。
Angelicae Sinensis Radix (ASR) is the root of Angelica sinensis which is a fragrant and perennial herb native to China, Japan, and Korea. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the plant is useful for replenishing and invigorating blood, relieving pain, and Afatinib solubility dmso moistening the intestines, resulting in its application for the treatment of menstrual
disorders, and as an emollient and laxative for chronic constipation of the aged and debilitated. An in-depth review of the literature brings to light a great number of chemical constituents that have been isolated from ASR as well as both preclinical (in vivo and in vitro) and clinical studies, which over the years, have sought
to investigate the medicinal relevance of some of these phytoconstituents and/or extract(s) prepared from ASR. The purpose of this review is therefore to present some major pharmacological and pharmacokinetic research findings on some selected phytoconstituents of ASR with emphasis on the current trends in terms of research techniques or design. This review would also provide a wealth of information for users/practitioners of TCM regarding the use of ASR or its products for maximum 也许 efficiency and minimal toxicity or side effects.
子痫前期是妊娠期特有疾病,目前其病因及发病机制尚未明确。本研究通过检测子痫前期患者胎盘组织中p38MAPK及COX-2的表达及其关系,探讨它们在子痫前期的病理生理过程中,特别是胎盘血管炎症反应中发挥的作用。1资料与方法1.1研究对象
目的探讨P38信号通路在星形胶质细胞氧糖剥夺,复氧后水通道蛋白4表达及细胞水肿形成中发挥的作用。方法原代培养的星形胶质细胞分为正常组,模型组和P38抑制剂组。模型组:细胞接受5 h氧糖剥夺/复氧处理;P38抑制剂组:细胞在5 h氧糖剥夺后的复氧过程中加入P38抑制剂(SB203580,10μmol/L)处理。在5 h氧糖剥夺/复氧后的不同时间点,用RT-PCR及Westem blotting法测定P38、磷酸化P38及水通道蛋白4(AQP4)的表达变化,光镜观察细胞形态变化,乳酸脱氢酶测定反应细胞损伤程度。结果与正常组相比,星形胶质细胞在5 h氧糖剥夺/复氧后,其磷酸化P38的水平明显上升,并在复氧lh时达到峰值(P<0.
