Chemotaxis, a directional cell migration guided by extracellular chemoattractant gradients, plays an essential role in the recruitment of neutrophils to sites of inflammation. Chemotaxis is mediated by the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling pathway. Extracellular stimuli trigger activation of the PLC/PKC/PKD signaling axis, which controls several signaling pathways. Here, we concentrate on the novel functions of PLC/PKC/PKD signaling in GPCR-mediated chemotaxis of neutrophils.
趋化作用,即细胞在细胞外化学趋化物浓度梯度引导下的定向迁移,在中性粒细胞向炎症部位募集中发挥重要作用。趋化作用由 G 蛋白偶联受体(GPCR)信号通路介导。细胞外刺激触发 PLC/PKC/PKD 信号轴的激活,该信号轴控制着几种信号通路。在这里,我们专注于 PLC/PKC/PKD 信号在 GPCR 介导的中性粒细胞趋化作用中的新功能。
