Details for receptor: ACTRIIA

EndoNet ID: ENR00724

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

  • activin receptor type 2
  • ACTR-II
  • ACTRIIA

General information

  • Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind and activate SMAD transcriptional regulators. Receptor for activin A, activin B and inhibin A. [1]
  • ALK4 and ActRIIA are the primary receptors for Nodal signaling during early development. [2]

Anatomical structures with this receptor

  • basophil_gonadotroph_cell_of_anterior_pituitary_FSH

    Influences

    • positive FSH
      • While FSH secretion in LbetaT2 cells was stimulated, in a dose-dependent manner, by activin alone, and was unaffected by GnRH alone, there was a synergistic effect between the two treatments. [3]
      • FSH produced in LbetaT2 cells under activin/GnRH stimulation is constitutively secreted via a granin-independent pathway. [3]
    • positive LH
      • Activin had a stimulatory effect on LH secretion, although this response was not dose dependent. [3]
      • Combined activin+GnRH induced a further increase over individual treatment levels, which appeared to be additive rather than synergistic. [3]
  • cell_of_endometrium_of_uterus

    Induced phenotypes

    • cell differentiation
      • Human endometrium expresses activin A recpetor type I and type II. Thereby, it is a target for activin A, which stimulates stromal cell differentiation along with the expression and secretion of markers of endometrial receptivity. [4]
