Communication between genomic and non-genomic signaling events coordinate steroid hormo... - 0 views

  • steroid hormones typically interact with their cognate receptor in the cytoplasm for AR, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and PR, but may also bind receptor in the nucleus as appears to often be the case for ERα and ERβ
  • This ligand binding results in a conformational change in the cytoplasmic NRs that leads to the dissociation of HSPs, translocation of the ligand-bound receptor to the nucleus
  • In the nucleus, the ligand-bound receptor dimerizes and then binds to DNA at specific HREs to regulate gene transcription
  • ...25 more annotations...
  • some steroid hormone-induced nuclear events can occur in minutes
  • the genomic effects of steroid hormones take longer, with changes in gene expression occurring on the timescale of hours
  • Classical steroid hormone signaling occurs when hormone binds nuclear receptors (NR) in the cytoplasm, setting off a chain of genomic events that results in, among other changes, dimerization and translocation to the nucleus where the ligand-bound receptor forms a complex with coregulators to modulate gene transcription through direct interactions with a hormone response element (HRE)
  • NRs have been found at the plasma membrane of cells, where they can propagate signal transduction often through kinase pathways
  • Membrane-localized ER, PR and AR have been reported to modulate the activity of MAPK/ERK, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt), nitric oxide (NO), PKC, calcium flux and increase inositol triphosphate (IP3) levels to promote cell processes including autophagy, proliferation, apoptosis, survival, differentiation, and vasodilation
  • ERα36, a 36kDa truncated form of ERα that lacks the transcriptional activation domains of the full-length protein. Membrane-localized ERα36 can activate pathways including protein kinase C (PKC) and/or mitogen activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) to promote the progression of various cancers
  • G protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30), also referred to as G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER), is a membrane-localized receptor that has been observed to respond to estrogen to activate rapid signaling
  • hormone-responsive G protein coupled receptor is Zip9, which androgens can activate
  • GPRC6A is another G protein-coupled membrane receptor that is responsive to androgen
  • androgen-mediated non-genomic signaling through this GPCR can modulate male fertility, hormone secretion and prostate cancer progression
  • non-NR proteins located at the cell surface can bind to steroid hormones and respond by eliciting rapid signaling events
  • Estrogens have been shown to induce rapid (i.e. seconds) calcium flux via membrane-localized ER (mER)
  • ER-calcium dynamics lead to activation of kinase pathways such as MAPK/ERK which can result in cellular effects like migration and proliferation
  • 17β-estradiol (E2) has been reported to promote angiogenesis through the activation of GPER
  • Membrane NRs may also mediate rapid signaling through crosstalk with growth factor receptors (GFR)
  • A similar crosstalk occurs between the receptor tyrosine kinase insulin-related growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-IR) and ERα. Not only does IGF-IR activate ERα, but inhibition of IGF-IR downregulates estrogen-mediated ERα activity, suggesting that IGF-IR is essential for maximal ERα signaling

      This is a bombshell that shatters the current right brain approach to ER. It completely shatters the concept of eat sugar, whatever you want, with cancer treatment in ER+ or hormonally responsive cancer!
  • Further, ER activates IGF-IR pathways including MAPK
  • GPER is involved in the transactivation of the EGFR independent of classical ER
  • tight interconnection between genomic and non-genomic effects of NRs.
  • non-genomic pathways can also lead to genomic effects
  • androgen-bound AR associates with the kinase Src at the plasma membrane, activating Src which then leads to a signaling cascade through MAPK/ERK
  • However, Src can also increase the expression of AR target genes by the ligand-independent transactivation of AR
  • extranuclear steroid hormone actions can potentially reprogram nuclear NR events
  • estrogen modulated the expression of several genes including endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) via rapid signaling pathways
  • epigenetic changes can then mediate genomic events in uterine tissue and breast cancer cells

Ozone therapy: A clinical review - 0 views

  • Its basic function is to protect humans from harmful effects of UV radiation
  • Its effects are proven, consistent and with minimal side effects
  • Medical O3, used to disinfect and treat disease, has been around for over 150 years
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • O3 not only remedied infection, but also had hemodynamic and anti-inflammatory properties
  • Stimulation of oxygen metabolism
  • In fungi, O3 inhibits cell growth at certain stages
  • With viruses, the O3 damages the viral capsid and upsets the reproductive cycle by disrupting the virus-to-cell contact with peroxidation.
  • Inactivation of bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast and protozoa: Ozone therapy disrupts the integrity of the bacterial cell envelope through oxidation of the phospholipids and lipoproteins
  • Activation of the immune system
  • 30 and 55 μg/cc
  • production of interferon and the greatest output of tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-2
  • Mechanism of action of O3 on the human lung
  • cascade of reactions like peroxidation of lipids leading to changes in membrane permeability,[41] lipid ozonation products (LOP) act as signal transducer molecules
  • Dietary antioxidants or free radical scavengers like vitamin E, C, etc., can prevent aforementioned effects of O3
