Calcium-independent inhibitory G-protein signaling induces persistent presynaptic muting of hippocampal synapses [PDF]
, 2011 Adaptive forms of synaptic plasticity that reduce excitatory synaptic transmission in response to prolonged increases in neuronal activity may prevent runaway positive feedback in neuronal circuits.

Data in Brief, 2019 Resistin is an adipokine produced in white adipose tissue that is thought to modulate insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues (such as liver, skeletal muscle or adipose tissue). Human and murine resistin molecules share only about 60% sequence homology.

Tailoring therapy for heart failure: the pharmacogenomics of adrenergic receptor signaling. [PDF]
, 2014 Heart failure is one of the leading causes of mortality in Western countries, and β-blockers are a cornerstone of its treatment. However, the response to these drugs is variable among individuals, which might be explained, at least in part, by genetic ...

A Study on the Origin of Peroxisomes: Possibility of Actinobacteria Symbiosis [PDF]
, 2008 The origin of peroxisomes as having developed from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was proposed on the basis of the similarity between some peroxisomal proteins and ER proteins, and the localization of some peroxisomal proteins on the ER.

pH sensing via bicarbonate-regulated ‘soluble’ adenylyl cyclase (sAC)
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 Soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) is a source of the second messenger cyclic adenosine 3',5' monophosphate (cAMP). sAC is directly regulated by bicarbonate (HCO3-) ions. In living cells, HCO3- ions are in nearly instantaneous equilibrium with carbon

Functional Non‐Nucleoside Adenylyl Cyclase Inhibitors
Chemical Biology & Drug Design, 2014 In this study, we describe the synthesis of novel functional non‐nucleoside adenylyl cyclase inhibitors, which can be easily modified with thiol containing biomolecules such as tumour targeting structures. The linkage between inhibitor and biomolecule contains cleavable bonds to enable efficient intracellular delivery in the reductive milieu of the ...

Differential coupling of G protein alpha subunits to seven-helix receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes [PDF]
, 1994 Xenopus oocytes were used to examine the coupling of the serotonin 1c (5HT1c) and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) receptors to both endogenous and heterologously expressed G protein alpha subunits.

Functional selectivity of GPCR-directed drug action through location bias. [PDF]
, 2017 G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are increasingly recognized to operate from intracellular membranes as well as the plasma membrane. The β 2 -adrenergic GPCR can activate G s -linked cyclic AMP (G s -cAMP) signaling from endosomes.

Evidence for functional pre-coupled complexes of receptor heteromers and adenylyl cyclase
Nature Communications, 2018 It is unclear whether GPCRs, G proteins and adenylyl cyclase (AC) associate through random collisions or defined pre-coupling mechanisms. Using a peptide-based approach, the authors show that heteromers of adenosine A2A and dopamine D2 receptors form pre-
