Recent in vitro observations that α-synuclein is phosphorylated by G protein-coupled receptor kinases, and that this phosphorylation relieves its inhibitory action on PLD2 [ 40 ] , suggest a novel mechanism by which neurotransmitter receptors (including muscarinic receptors) might modulate PLD2 activity.
However, no results on whether or not progestogen can modulate the expression of MDR1/P-gp have been reported.
Development of osteosclerosis and the disappearance of the marrow space in these estrogen-treated mice is an interesting and useful model since marrow stromal cells not only contain the precursors for osteogenic cell lineages, but they also exert important effects on osteoclastogenesis and lymphopoiesis, and modulate the effects of some systemic factors of bone turnover.
For example, CD98 and β1 integrins may act together during T-cell co-stimulation [ 24 ] . A genetic screen revealed that CD98 may indirectly influence integrin affinity for ligand [ 25 ] . Also, anti-CD98 mAb appeared to modulate integrin-dependent adhesion in two separate studies [ 25 26 ] . In addition, antibodies to both CD98 and α3β1 integrin promoted cell fusion [ 27 ] , and antibodies to β1 and β2 integrins blocked monocyte cell-cell fusion and aggregation functions induced by an anti-CD98 mAb [ 5 ] . Finally, like CD98, the α3β1 integrin has been implicated in amino acid transport [ 28 ] .
