Induction of dark-adaptive retinomotor movement (cell elongation) in teleost retinal cones by cyclic adenosine 3,5-monophosphate. [PDF]
In the teleost retina, the photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) undergo extensive movements (called retinomotor movements) in response to changes in light conditions and to an endogenous circadian rhythm.

Direct Growth Graphene on Cu Nanoparticles by Chemical Vapor Deposition as Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Substrate for Label-Free Detection of Adenosine [PDF]
We present a graphene/Cu nanoparticle hybrids (G/CuNPs) system as a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate for adenosine detection. The Cu nanoparticles wrapped around a monolayer graphene shell were directly synthesized on flat quartz by chemical vapor deposition in a mixture of methane and hydrogen.

Characterization of the taste receptor‐related G‐protein, α‐gustducin, in pancreatic β‐cells
Aims/Introduction Taste receptors, T1rs and T2rs, and the taste‐selective G‐protein, α‐gustducin, are expressed outside the taste‐sensing system, such as enteroendocrine L cells.

AMPK Regulation of Mouse Oocyte Meiotic Resumption in Vitro [PDF]
We have previously shown that the adenosine analog 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-d-ribofuranoside (AICAR), an activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), stimulates an increase in AMPK activity and induces meiotic resumption in mouse oocytes ...

Hepatic gluconeogenesis and regulatory mechanisms in lactating ruminants: A literature review
phosphoenolpyruvate carboxy kinase, FBP1, and glucose‐6‐phosphatase are key rate‐limiting enzymes that determine the efficiency of gluconeogenesis. The main substrate for gluconeogenesis in the liver of ruminants is propionate, which provides more than 60% of the carbon source for gluconeogenesis.

Computational Study of Molecular Mechanisms of Caffeine Actions [PDF]
Caffeine (CAF) is one of the most widely and regularly consumed biologically active substances. We use computer simulation approach to the study of CAF activity by searching for its possible complexes with biopolymer fragments. The principal CAF target at physiologically important concentrations refers to adenosine receptors.

Mechanisms of light in regulating the chick pineal clock. Abstract The circadian clock significantly impacts animal health and productivity, with light playing a crucial role in regulating circadian rhythms. However, the mechanisms behind light‐induced circadian transmission remain unclear, particularly in light‐sensitive avian species.
