Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor in Nociceptors Mediates Postoperative Analgesia via ASIC3 Inhibition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CB1R and ASIC3 are co‐expressed in CGRP+ nociceptors of mouse DRG. Plantar incision triggers an upregulation of ASIC3 and activation of ASIC3+ neurons, driving mechanical allodynia. CB1R activation suppresses ASIC3 function and downstream ERK1/2 phosphorylation, thereby braking nociceptive signaling and accelerating pain resolution.

An investigation of the response of a model class IIIA Adenyly Cyclase to carbon dioxide [PDF]

, 2009
Adenylyl cyclase catalyses the conversion of adenosine triphosphate into 3’,5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate and pyrophosphate. Adenylyl cyclases are grouped into six distinct Classes based on amino acid sequence similarity.

GDP does not support activation of adenylate cyclase nor ADP-ribosylation of a guanine nucleotide binding protein by cholera toxin [PDF]

, 1983
The actions of cholera toxin (i.e., activation of adenylate cyclase and ADP-ribosylation of a guanine nucleotide binding protein in purified membranes fronm rat liver) were GTP dependent. Neither of these actions of cholera toxin was reproduced with GDP.

Distinct Spatiotemporal Distribution of Bacterial Toxin-Produced Cellular cAMP Differentially Inhibits Opsonophagocytic Signaling

Toxins, 2019
Myeloid phagocytes have evolved to rapidly recognize invading pathogens and clear them through opsonophagocytic killing. The adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) of Bordetella pertussis and the edema toxin (ET) of Bacillus anthracis are both calmodulin ...

Replacement of Adenylate Cyclase Toxin in a Lineage of Bordetella bronchiseptica [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2008
ABSTRACT Bordetella bronchiseptica is a gram-negative respiratory pathogen that infects a wide range of hosts and causes a diverse spectrum of disease. This diversity is likely affected by multiple factors, such as host immune status, polymicrobial infection, and strain diversity.

Bidirectional Pathological Axis Between Alzheimer's Disease and Circadian Rhythm Disturbance: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates a bidirectional vicious cycle between Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and circadian rhythm disturbance (CRD). On the one hand, AD pathology, including amyloid‐β (Aβ) plaque deposition and tau hyperphosphorylation, may damage the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and disrupt melatonin signaling, leading to sleep fragmentation ...

Membrane Repair Mechanisms against Permeabilization by Pore-Forming Toxins

Toxins, 2018
Permeabilization of the plasma membrane represents an important threat for any cell, since it compromises its viability by disrupting cell homeostasis.

Bordetella adenylate cyclase toxin differentially modulates toll-like receptor-stimulated activation, migration and T cell stimulatory capacity of dendritic cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) is a key virulence factor of the whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis. The toxin targets CD11b-expressing phagocytes and delivers into their cytosol an adenylyl cyclase (AC) enzyme that subverts cellular signaling by ...

Hsp90 Inhibition on the Western Blot: N‐Terminal Versus C‐Terminal Inhibitors in Breast Cancer

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is an established and clinically validated anticancer target. By regulating the folding and maturation of diverse client proteins, it is indirectly involved in carcinogenesis. Key breast cancer oncogenic drivers, including estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, are ...

Bordetellaadenylate cyclase toxin: a unique combination of a pore-forming moiety with a cell-invading adenylate cyclase enzyme [PDF]

Pathogens and Disease, 2015
The adenylate cyclase toxin-hemolysin (CyaA, ACT or AC-Hly) is a key virulence factor of the whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis. CyaA targets myeloid phagocytes expressing the complement receptor 3 (CR3, known as αMβ2 integrin CD11b/CD18 or Mac-1) and translocates by a poorly understood mechanism directly across the cytoplasmic membrane into ...
