Cyclosporin A, rapamycin and FK506 decrease prolactin release from rat pituitary cells in primary culture (1995)

Wera, S, Zheng, L, Hooghe-Peters, E L, Belayew, A, Martial, Joseph, Velkeniers, B

It is at present well established that prolactin exerts a non-specific immunoactivating function. In this work we tested whether the immunosuppressant drugs cyclosporin A, FK506 and rapamycin...

Okadaic acid, a protein phosphatase inhibitor, enhances transcription of a receptor gene containing sequence A of the human prolactin promoter (1993)

Wera, S, Belayew, A, Martial, Joseph

Human PRL (hPRL) gene expression is controlled by cAMP and Ca2+. This control is mediated by two cis-elements: a Pit-1 binding site (-62 to -35) and sequence A (-110 to -85), present in the hPRL...

Time-dependent pseudo-activation of hepatic glycogen synthase b by glucose 6-phosphate without involvement of protein phosphatases.

Wera, S, Bollen, M, Moens, L, Stalmans, W

During a 30 min incubation at 25 degrees C in the presence of 5-10 mM glucose 6-phosphate, pure glycogen-bound glycogen synthase b from dog liver was progressively converted into a form that was...

Opposite roles of trehalase activity in heat-shock recovery and heat-shock survival in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Wera, S, De Schrijver, E, Geyskens, I, Nwaka, S, Thevelein, J M

A variety of results has been obtained consistent with activation of neutral trehalase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae through direct phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). A series of...

Analysis and modification of trehalose 6-phosphate levels in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the use of Bacillus subtilis phosphotrehalase.

Van Vaeck , C, Wera, S, Van Dijck , P, Thevelein, J M

In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, trehalose is synthesized by the trehalose synthase complex in two steps. The Tps1 subunit catalyses the formation of trehalose 6-phosphate (Tre6P), which is...

PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and phospholipase C-independent Ins(1,4,5)P(3) signals induced by a nitrogen source in nitrogen-starved yeast cells.

Bergsma, J C, Kasri, N N, Donaton, M C, De Wever, V, Tisi, R, De Winde, J H, ...

Addition of ammonium sulphate to nitrogen-depleted yeast cells resulted in a transient increase in Ins(1,4,5)P(3), with a maximum concentration reached after 7-8 min, as determined by radioligand...
