Receptor tyrosine kinases2. Cytokine receptors3. TGF-β receptors1. Receptor tyrosine kinases•Ligands are soluble or membrane-bound peptide or protein hormones (I.e. insulin, growth factors)•Some RTKs have been identified in studies of human cancers - mutant forms send proliferative signals to cells in absence of signalReceptor tyrosine kinases autophosporylate themselves•Phosphorylate tyrosine residues on target proteins and on themselves•Activation of a receptor tyrosine kinase stimulates assembly of a signaling complexTyrosine receptor signaling complexes•As many as 10 or 20 downstream signaling molecules - differ between receptors•Components such as phospholipases, lipid kinases, other protein kinases, and Ras•Complexes are disassembled by protein tyrosine phosphatasesReceptor tyrosine kinases activate the G protein RasGTP binding to Ras induces a conformational changeRas activates a cascade of kinases called MAP-kinasesScaffoldingproteinRTKs can activate the PI-3-kinase-Akt pathwayActivated Akt serves as a survival signal for the cell and stimulates cell growth2. Cytokine receptors•Cytokines are small secreted proteins •Control growth and differentiation of many types of tissues (I.e. induce formation of different types of blood cells, interferons)Cytokine receptors signal to the nucleus in a direct pathway3. TGFβ receptor signaling•TGFβ - transforming growth factor β•A number of related extracellular signaling molecules important during development•Exert anti-proliferative signals to cells - loss of function can contribute to malignancy•Mutations in this pathway are often associated with pancreatic cancers but also implicated in colon, liver, and gastric tumorsTGF-β receptors activate gene regulatory proteins at the membraneReceptor signaling may be inactivated via different
