Phenobarbital induces alterations in the proteome of hepatocytes and mesenchymal cells of rat livers. [PDF]
Preceding studies on the mode of action of non-genotoxic hepatocarcinogens (NGCs) have concentrated on alterations induced in hepatocytes (HCs). A potential role of non-parenchymal liver cells (NPCs) in NGC-driven hepatocarcinogenesis has been largely ...

The transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) is a non-specific cation channel, resulting in Ca2+ influx at warm temperatures from 34 °C to 47 °C, thus including the body temperature range in mammals.

Channelling of substrate promiscuity of the skeletal-muscle ADP-ribosyl cyclase isoform. [PDF]
The novel Ca2+-mobilizing second messengers cADPr (cyclic ADP-ribose) and NAADP (nicotinic acid–adenine dinucleotide phosphate) are both synthesized by ADP-ribosyl cyclases. Using HSR (heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum) fractions from rabbit skeletal muscle, NAADP-induced Ca2+ release was observed.

Inhibition of ADP-ribosyl cyclase attenuates angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy [PDF]
Here, we report the discovery of a small molecule inhibitor, 2,2'-dihydroxyazobenzene (DAB), of ADP ribosyl cyclase (ADPR-cyclase) and showed that this inhibitor attenuated angiotensin (Ang) II-induced hypertrophic responses.and results The intracellular concentration of free Ca(2+) [Ca(2+)](i) in adult rat cardiomyocytes was measured by using a ...

Impaired learning and memory in CD38 null mutant mice [PDF]
CD38 is an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of cyclic ADP ribose and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate, both of which are involved in the mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores.

CD38/cADPR Signaling Pathway in Airway Disease: Regulatory Mechanisms
Asthma is an inflammatory disease in which proinflammatory cytokines have a role in inducing abnormalities of airway smooth muscle function and in the development of airway hyperresponsiveness.

CD157, known as bone marrow stromal cell antigen-1, is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored ADP-ribosyl cyclase that supports the survival and function of B-lymphocytes and hematopoietic or intestinal stem cells. Although CD157/Bst1 is a risk locus in

Activation of tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 in airway smooth muscle: a potential pathway that modulates bronchial hyper-responsiveness in asthma? [PDF]
The cellular and molecular mechanisms that are involved in airway hyper-responsiveness are unclear. Current studies suggest that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, a cytokine that is produced in considerable quantities in asthmatic airways, may potentially ...

Purification and characterization of CD38/ADP‐ribosyl cyclase from rat lung [PDF]
AbstractPurification and characterization of CD38/ADP‐ribosyl cyctase in the rat lung tissue was performed with microsomes solubilized in Triton X‐100 and the ADP‐ribosyl cyclase was then purified using sequential column chromatography. Partially purified rat lung ADP‐ribosyl cyclase was analyzed by immunoblotting using an antibody raised against a ...
