A link among schizophrenia, diabetes, and asthma: Role of Ca2+/cAMP signaling

open access: yesBrain Circulation, 2020
Asthma has been associated with an increased risk for developing schizophrenia. In addition, schizophrenia has been associated with an increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus, resulting in an elevated cardiovascular risk and in a limited ...

Peroxynitrite modulates receptor-activated Ca2+ signaling in vascular endothelial cells

open access: yes, 1996
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is formed from superoxide (O2-) and .NO. We have previously reported that O2- does not alter endothelial cell Ca2+ signaling. To test whether .NO alters Ca2+ signaling, cells were incubated with the .NO donor, spermine NONOate ...

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

STIM1 Ca2+ Sensor Control of L-type Ca2+-Channel-Dependent Dendritic Spine Structural Plasticity and Nuclear Signaling

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Summary: Potentiation of synaptic strength relies on postsynaptic Ca2+ signals, modification of dendritic spine structure, and changes in gene expression.

CPK12 and Ca2+-mediated hypoxia signaling

open access: yes, 2023
Hypoxia triggers reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced elevation in cytoplasmic calcium (Ca2+) in the plant cells. Calcium-dependent protein kinase 12 (CPK12) acts as a sensor to recognize the Ca2+ signature and is activated by autophosphorylation. Then,

The C‐terminal truncated splicing variant of NK1R negatively modulates substance P‐stimulated NK1R signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The neurokinin 1 receptor exists as full‐length (NK1L) and C‐terminally truncated (NK1S) splice variants. We show that NK1S heterodimerizes with NK1L, impairing Gαq coupling and Ca2+ mobilization while enhancing β‐arrestin1 recruitment. NK1S suppresses substance P‐driven gene expression and cell migration, revealing NK1S as an endogenous biased ...

TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 attenuates pulmonary fibroblast activation by suppressing mTOR and restoring autophagic flux

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TGF‐β1 stimulation downregulates lysosomal channel TRPML1 in pulmonary fibroblasts. The TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 suppressed fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast activation and collagen production. Mechanistically, ML‐SA5 inhibited mTOR phosphorylation, restored autophagic flux, and its effects were enhanced by rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) and reversed by MHY1485 ...

INTRACELLULAR Ca2+ HOMEOSTASIS

open access: yesMalang Neurology Journal, 2015
Ca2+ signaling functions to regulate many cellular processes. Dynamics of Ca2+ signaling or homeostasis is regulated by the interaction between ON and OFF reactions that control Ca2+ flux in both the plasma membrane and internal organelles such as the ...

Beta1 subunits enable fentanyl‐induced BK channel activation and opioid regulation of cerebral artery diameter

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

Dendritic spines as chemical and electrical compartments : a two-photon imaging study in the hippocampus of the rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Most excitatory synapses are located on small dendritic protrusions called spines. So far, the function of dendritic spines is not fully understood. Imaging experiments have shown that spines can compartmentalize second messengers such as Ca2+.
