title: [Participation of the DNA-binding cytokine amphoterine in triggering the processes of tissue reparation].
abstract: Author's studies and literature references indicate that the DNA-binding cytokine: amphoterine, being a non-histone component of chromatin, acts in extracellular milieu as cytokine regulating gene expression in target cells. The amphoterine effects are mediated by its interaction with the cell surface receptors including those of the final glucosiding product (RAGE), which leads to activation of the ERK and p38 MAP-kinases as well as NF-kappaB. Amphoterine prompts inflammatory response by means of activating synthesis of interleukins-1, -6 and -8 as well as tumour necrosis factors (TNF-alpha) and activates tissue regeneration by means of involvement of the precursor cells into the damage foci and induction of the cells' differentiation. These properties of amphoterine suggest that appearance of this protein in extracellular space signals of a tissue damaging.
