A new growth factor, XGEF, has been found to be upregulated in breast carcinomas. This growth factor appears to activate a seven- transmembrane-domain cell surface receptor on endothelial cells. The binding of the receptor results in the increase of calcium in the cell cytosol. By what mechanism does XGEF exert its effect on endothelial cells?
研究发现一种新的生长因子XGEF在乳腺癌中表达上调。这种生长因子似乎能激活内皮细胞上的一种7跨膜域细胞表面受体。受体的结合导致细胞胞质内钙离子的增加。XGEF通过什么机制对内皮细胞发挥作用?
(A) Activation of Gi
(B) Activation of Gq
(C) Activation of Gs
(D) Upregulation of cGMP
答案解析:
细胞表面的七跨膜结构域受体是g -偶联受体。许多药物与g蛋白偶联受体结合。Gq的激活导致磷脂酰胆碱的激活,磷脂酰肌醇二磷酸分解为1,4,5-三磷酸肌醇(IP3)和二酰甘油(DAG)。IP3激活内质网IP3受体,导致钙从细胞内库释放,而DAG激活蛋白激酶C。
正确答案:B
