1. Receptors for growth hormone and prolactin. Regulation and activation
Sammanfattning : Cytokine receptor activation is dependent on ligand-induced receptor dimerization or oligomerization and subsequent activation of several intracellular proteins. Activation of Janus kinases (Jaks) is probably the first intracellular event that occurs after receptor dimerization. LÄS MER
2. Molecular Mechanism of Growth Hormone - Involvement of Janus Kinase 2, Insulin Receptor Substrate-1 and -2 and Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase In the Acute Insulin-Like Effects of Growth Hormone In Primary Rat Adipocytes
Sammanfattning : Originally studying the molecular mechanisms for the insulin-like effects of growth hormone (GH), lipogenesis and antilipolysis, in isolated rat adipocytes we found that the GH receptor (GHR) was tyrosine phosphorylated in response to GH in cells that were responsive to these effects. Then, as Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) was described as a GH-stimulated and GHR-associated tyrosine kinase, we found that JAK2 was tyrosine phosphorylated in response to GH in responsive cells. LÄS MER
3. Muscle Wasting in a Rat ICU Model : Underlying Mechanisms and Specific Intervention Strategies
Sammanfattning : Critical care has undergone several developments in the recent years leading to improved survival. However, acquired muscle weakness in the intensive care unit (ICU) is an important complication that affects severely ill patients and can prolong their ICU stay. LÄS MER
4. Regulation of STAT5 activity by growth hormone
Sammanfattning : The growth hormone (GH) receptor is a member of the cytokine receptor superfamily. This receptor family has certain common characteristics, among them the absence of a canonical tyrosine kinase consensus sequence and the association with the Janus family of cytosolic tyrosine kinases (JAK). The predominant JAK utilized by the GH receptor is JAK2. LÄS MER
5. STAT5 expression and regulation in mammary epithelial cells
Sammanfattning : The mammary gland of an adult mammal undergoes cycles of proliferation and differentiation influenced by growth factors, peptide, and steroid hormones, e.g. epidermal growth factor (EGF), prolactin (PRL) and estrogen (E). LÄS MER
