Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1967 Abstract Pretreatment of adenosine diphosphate-G-actin solutions with apyrase results in a marked decrease in their rate of polymerization at 0° induced by KCl, creatine phosphate, and creatine kinase. In contrast, apyrase has no effect on the rate of polymerization of ATP-G-actin.

Purinergic Signaling in Pulmonary Inflammation
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Purine nucleotides and nucleosides are at the center of biologic reactions. In particular, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the fundamental energy currency of cellular activity and adenosine has been demonstrated to play essential roles in human ...

Mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation is stimulated by red light irradiation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Light at different wavelengths has distinct effects on keratinocyte viability and metabolism. UVA light abrogates metabolic fluxes. Blue and green light have no effect on metabolic fluxes, while red light enhanced oxidative phosphorylation by promoting fatty acid oxidation. Keratinocytes are the primary constituents of sunlight‐exposed epidermis.

Attenuation of ischemic liver injury by prostaglandin E
, 1998 Background: Prostaglandin has been reported to have protective effects against liver injury. Use of this agent in clinical settings, however, is limited because of drugrelated side effects.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The importance of calcium in the regulation of megakaryocyte function
Haematologica, 2014 Platelet release by megakaryocytes is regulated by a concert of environmental and autocrine factors. We previously showed that constitutively released adenosine diphosphate by human megakaryocytes leads to platelet production. Here we show that adenosine
