Calcineurin controls the expression of numerous genes in cerebellar granule cells
The Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase calcineurin plays a crucial role in gene expression in different cell types such as T-lymphocytes, cardiac myocytes, and smooth muscle cells.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Abstract Objectives Shwachman–Diamond syndrome (SDS) is an inherited bone marrow failure disorder, and its endoscopic phenotype is poorly defined. We sought to characterize endoscopic findings in patients with genetically confirmed SDS. Methods Retrospective registry study of 45 patients with biallelic Shwachman–Bodian–Diamond syndrome mutations and ...

Pharmacology of calcineurin antagonists
Cyclosporine and tacrolimus share the same pharmacodynamic property of activated T-cell suppression via inhibition of calcineurin. The introduction of these drugs to the immunosuppressive repertoire of transplant management has greatly improved the outcomes in organ transplantation and constitutes arguably one of the major breakthroughs in modern ...
