Phosphate-sensing mechanisms and functions of phosphate as a first messenger by Yuichi Takashi

“…Our previous data indicated that high extracellular phosphate phosphorylates FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1) in an unliganded manner, and its downstream intracellular signaling pathway regulates the expression of GALNT3. Furthermore, the post-translational modification of FGF23 protein via a gene product of GALNT3 is the main regulatory mechanism of enhanced FGF23 production due to high dietary phosphate. …”

Leptin Antagonizes Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-γ Signaling in Growth Plate Chondrocytes by Lai Wang, Yvonne Y. Shao, R. Tracy Ballock

“…Blocking MAPK/ERK function with PD98059 confirmed that leptin antagonizes PPARγ function in growth plate chondrocytes through the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. Furthermore, leptin signaling in growth plate cells is also negatively modulated by activation of PPARγ, implying that these two signaling pathways are mutually regulated in growth plate chondrocytes.…”

Ataxin-10 Inhibits TNF-α-Induced Endothelial Inflammation via Suppressing Interferon Regulatory Factor-1 by Yong Li, Qi Zhang, Na Li, Liting Ding, Jinping Yi, Yue Xiao, Shibiao Chen, Xuan Huang

“…However, Ataxin-10 did not affect the MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway stimulated by TNF-α in HUVECs. Using the yeast two-hybrid assay, we found that Ataxin-10 can directly bind to interferon regulatory factor-1 (IRF-1). …”
