细胞内信号网络中的非联想学习

Non-associative learning in intra-cellular signaling networks

Tanmay Mitra, Shakti N. Menon, Sitabhra Sinha

摘要:

已知由经常性信号驱动的非线性系统表现出复杂的动态响应,在生理背景下,可以具有重要的功能后果。暴露于这种重复刺激的最简单的生物系统之一是细胞内信号网络。在本文中,我们研究了这个网络的进化保守基序的周期性激活,即,丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)信号级联,具有脉冲训练。由此产生的响应的级联,这表明在几个连续的脉冲的综合能力,其特征在于复杂的自适应行为。这些包括非联想学习的各个方面,特别是习惯化和敏化,分别在对高频和低频刺激的反应中观察到。此外,级联反应阈值的存在,短脉冲间隔刺激后的明显不应行为,以及在一定条件下的交替反应,表明与可兴奋介质的类比。

英文摘要:

Nonlinear systems driven by recurrent signals are known to exhibit complex dynamical responses which, in the physiological context, can have important functional consequences. One of the simplest biological systems that is exposed to such repeated stimuli is the intra-cellular signaling network. In this paper we investigate the periodic activation of an evolutionarily conserved motif of this network, viz., the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade, with a train of pulses. The resulting response of the cascade, which shows integrative capability over several successive pulses, is characterized by complex adaptive behavior. These include aspects of non-associative learning, in particular, habituation and sensitization, which are observed in response to high- and low-frequency stimulation, respectively. In addition, the existence of a response threshold of the cascade, an apparent refractory behavior following stimulation with short inter-pulse interval, and an alternans-like response under certain conditions suggest an analogy with excitable media.
