Receptor-mediated signal transduction neutrophils

Figure 1. Simplified schematic of receptor-mediated signal transduction in neutrophils. Binding of ligand to the receptor activates a guanine-nucleotide-binding protein (G protein), which then stimulates phospholipase C. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bis-phosphate is cleaved to produce diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). DAG stimulates protein kinase C. IP3 causes the release of Ca from intracellular stores, which results in an increase in the cytosolic Ca concentration. This increase in Ca may stimulate protein kinase C, calmodulin-dependent protein kinases, and phospholipase A2. Protein phosphorylation events are thought to be important in stimulating degranulation and oxidant production. In addition, ionic fluxes occur across the plasma membrane. It is possible that phospholipase A2 and ionic channels may be governed by G protein interactions. ... Figure 1. Simplified schematic of receptor-mediated signal transduction in neutrophils.
