New perspectives in signaling mediated by receptors coupled to stimulatory G protein: the emerging significance of cAMP efflux and extracellular cAMP-adenosine pathway.

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) linked to stimulatory G (Gs) proteins (GsPCR) mediate increases in intracellular cyclic AMP as consequence of activation of nine adenylyl cyclases (AC), which differ considerably in their cellular distribution and ...

Eukaryotic-like Adenylyl Cyclases in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
Screening the Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv genomic library for complementation of catabolic defect for cAMP-dependent expression of maltose operon produced the adenylyl cyclase gene (Mtb cya,GenBankTM accession no. AF017731 (1997)) annotated later as

Dimerisation of the VIP receptor VIPR2 is essential to its binding VIP and Gαi proteins, and to its functions in breast cancer cells

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 15, Page 3612-3627, August 2025.
Abstract Background and Purpose Several G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are known to homodimerise. Dimeric GPCRs may have different properties from their monomers, but the molecular basis and functional significance of GPCR dimerisation remain largely unknown.

Light‐emitting diode irradiation targets aerobic glycolysis in cancer‐associated fibroblasts to inhibit metabolic coupling with colon cancer cells

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 9, Issue 4, Page 761-768, July 2025.
Blue LED irradiation targeted metabolic coupling between CAFs and colon cancer cells. Abstract Background The concepts examined in tumor metabolism research have been moving away from cancer cells themselves and the tumor microenvironment has become a focus of investigation.

Adenylyl cyclases (ACs) (version 2019.4) in the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology Database [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Adenylyl cyclase, E.C. 4.6.1.1, converts ATP to cyclic AMP and pyrophosphate. Mammalian membrane-delimited adenylyl cyclases (nomenclature as approved by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Adenylyl cyclases [9]) are typically made up of two clusters of six TM

Ten‐Eleven Translocation Family Proteins: Structure, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Targeted Therapy

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2025.
TET family proteins play a critical role in DNA demethylation, and their mutations and dysregulation contribute to the onset of multiple diseases. With a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms of TET involvement in disease, drug therapy targeting TET proteins shows great potential, which provides insights into new therapeutic strategies ...

Characterization of the Blue-Light-Activated Adenylyl Cyclase mPAC by Flash Photolysis and FTIR Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The recently discovered photo-activated adenylyl cyclase (mPAC from Microcoleus chthonoplastes) is the first PAC that owes a light-, oxygen- and voltage-sensitive (LOV) domain for blue-light sensing.

Measurement of Intracellular cAMP Levels Using the Cyclic Nucleotide XP Enzymatic Immunoassay Kit in Bacteria

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2016
Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is a ubiquitous secondary signaling molecule, commonly associated with many bacterial processes, including the regulation of virulence factors, such as biofilms, pellicles and motility (Wolfgang, 2003). The quantity of available cAMP is

Light‐Activated Pharmacological Tools for Exploring the Cholinergic System

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 1251-1274, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Cholinergic transmission plays a critical role in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, affecting processes such as learning, memory, and inflammation. Conventional cholinergic drugs generally suffer from poor selectivity and temporal precision, leading to undesired effects and limited therapeutic efficacy. Photopharmacology aims to
