Recently, several LH/human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) receptor-independent activities for hCG have been described, including activation of the TGF-β receptor (TGFβR) by hyperglycosylated hCG and stimulation of trophoblast invasion. Because the hC

The association between nuclear distribution and mobility of the human glucocorticoid receptor was examined in living COS-1 cells using yellow fluorescent protein- and cyan fluorescent protein-tagged receptors. Quantitation of the nuclear distributio

The cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme, P450scc, initiates biosynthesis of all steroid hormones. Adrenal and gonadal P450scc expression requires steroidogenic factor-1 (SF1), but P450scc expression in human placental JEG-3 cells utilizes an SF1-i

We evaluated the signaling pathways involved in regulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a potent angiogenic growth factor, in response to natural and synthetic progestins in breast cancer cells. Inhibition of the phosphoinositide-3′-k

Attenuation of CRH receptor type 1 (CRH-R1) signaling activity might involve desensitization and uncoupling of CRH-R1 from intracellular effectors. We investigated the desensitization of native CRH-R in human myometrial cells from pregnant women and

Estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) negative breast tumors often present with enhanced expression and/or activation of growth factor receptors, resulting in increased growth factor signaling and hyperactivation of MAPK (ERK1 and ERK2). We have pre-viou

Leptin has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism in obese diabetic ob/ob mice, yet the mechanisms remain poorly defined. We found that 2 d of leptin treatment improved fasting but not postprandial glucose homeostasis, sugge

Somatostatin (SRIF) regulates pancreatic insulin and glucagon secretion. In the present study we describe the generation of SRIF receptor subtype 5 knockout (sst(5) KO) mice to examine the role of SRIF receptor subtypes (sst) in regulating insulin se

To clarify the physiological significance of the intranuclear speckled distribution, or foci formation, of liganded steroid receptors, the subnuclear distribution of green (GFP), yellow (YFP), and cyan (CFP) fluorescent protein-tagged receptors and c

PTP1B is a protein tyrosine phosphatase that negatively regulates insulin sensitivity by dephosphorylating the insulin receptor. Akt is a ser/thr kinase effector of insulin signaling that phosphorylates substrates at the consensus motif RXRXXS/T. Int
