Cannabigerol reverses mechanical allodynia through α2A‐adrenergic modulation of thalamocortical signaling in chemotherapy‐induced neuropathy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a prevalent and treatment‐resistant side effect of platinum‐based chemotherapy, characterised by mechanical allodynia. Cannabigerol (CBG), a non‐psychoactive cannabinoid, has shown antinociceptive potential, but its site and mechanism of action remain unclear.

Atrial natriuretic peptide counteracts aldosterone secretion by preventing acute angiotensin II‐induced cAMP signalling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Aldosterone plays a key role in blood pressure and volume regulation. Enhanced aldosterone secretion contributes to cardiovascular and renal diseases. Therefore, inhibitors of aldosterone receptors and synthase are essential drugs for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

Enhancement of Sphingosine 1-Phosphate-Induced Phospholipase C Activation During G0-G1 Transition in Rat Hepatocytes

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
We previously reported that sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) induces inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and activation of phospholipase C via independent G protein-coupled receptors in adult rat hepatocytes.

Adenylyl cyclase signalling complexes - pharmacological challenges and opportunities [PDF]

, 2017
Signalling pathways involving the vital second messanger, cAMP, impact on most significant physiological processes. Unsurprisingly therefore, the activation and regulation of cAMP signalling is tightly controlled within the cell by processes including ...

Alamandine/MrgD pathway modulates gut–bone marrow axis in ageing

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Ageing is associated with colon epithelial barrier disruption and up‐regulation of myelopoiesis in the bone marrow (BM). Alamandine (Ala) and MrgD are novel members of the renin angiotensin system (RAS). This study tested the hypothesis that Ala restores the colon epithelial barrier integrity in ageing via modulating gut–

Bicarbonate Stimulated Adenylyl Cyclases [PDF]

IUBMB Life, 2004
AbstractBicarbonate ion is fundamental to the biology of all living organisms. HCO3‐ is vital to such diverse physiological processes as carbon fixation, cellular homeostasis, sperm maturation, and nucleotide synthesis. A defined subset of adenylyl cyclases identified in eukaryotes and prokaryotes are directly activated by HCO3‐.

Dietary melatonin and its benefits on cardiovascular disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality globally, with a disproportionate burden in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Melatonin, a hormone primarily produced by the pineal gland, exhibits notable antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties that may confer cardiovascular benefits.

Label-free fluorescent real-time monitoring of adenylyl cyclase

, 2015
In cellular signaling, adenylyl cyclase plays a key role in the hydrolysis of ATP to cyclic AMP and pyrophosphate. Using a synthetic fluorescent chemosensor (PyDPA) which binds strongly to the pyrophosphate group, we have developed a label-free ...

Incretin‐Based Therapies as Cardiometabolic Interventions: Outcome Hierarchy, Receptor‐Network Pharmacology and Phenotype‐Based Clinical Positioning

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Incretin‐based pharmacotherapy was initially developed to improve glucose‐dependent insulin secretion and glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes, but its clinical interpretation has expanded substantially with cardiovascular outcome trials, kidney outcome data, obesity studies and next‐generation polyagonist development.

Dop1 enhances conspecific olfactory attraction by inhibiting miR-9a maturation in locusts

Nature Communications, 2018
Migratory locusts shift between aggregating together during gregarious phases and living individually during solitary phases. Here, the authors find that the D1-like dopamine receptor regulates the olfactory attraction underlying this behavioral switch ...
