Azioni biochim/fisiol

STa has a tertiary structure, maintained by disulfide bridges, which is required for receptor binding and biological activity. Its receptors are membrane-bound guanylyl cyclases. These receptors are located on enterocytes, colonocytes, and various extraintestinal tissues. STa causes diarrhea in humans by binding to its receptor, stimulating the guanylyl cyclase, and triggering production of cyclic GMP. Endogenous ligands for the STa receptor include guanylin, extracted from intestine, and uroguanylin from urine. These peptides may have a role in the regulation of fluid and electrolytes. Protein kinase C (PKC) phosphorylates and activates the STa receptor/guanylyl cyclase in vitro and in vivo. As a result, stimulators of PKC synergistically enhance STa effects on cGMP and secretion.

Altre note
