Spleen tyrosine kinase / SYK. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.

1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What acts on it

  1. Dectin-1 activates Syk in macrophages and is important for Dectin-1-stimulated reactive oxygen production but not for phagocytosis, Syk activation is restricted to a subpopulation of macrophages that is in equilibrium with cells that cannot activate the pathway, and the proportion of macrophages using this signalling pathway can be modulated by cytokine treatment, so Dectin-1 signalling reveals dynamic macrophage heterogeneity in inflammatory activation potential.

    The heterogeneity finding is the important limit: the pathway operated in a subpopulation in equilibrium with cells that could not use it, and the proportion shifted with cytokine treatment.
