Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.

Kinase signalling adaptation supports dysfunctional mitochondria in disease

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Mitochondria form a critical control nexus which are essential for maintaining correct tissue homeostasis. An increasing number of studies have identified dysregulation of mitochondria as a driver in cancer.

The temporal profile of activity-dependent presynaptic phospho-signalling reveals long-lasting patterns of poststimulus regulation.

PLoS Biology, 2019
Depolarization of presynaptic terminals stimulates calcium influx, which evokes neurotransmitter release and activates phosphorylation-based signalling.

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

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.

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Inhibition of late sodium current prevents pathological hyperactivation of calcium/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase IIδ in a murine model of acute doxorubicin‐related cardiotoxicity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Doxorubicin (DOX) is a highly effective anthracycline, whose clinical application for cancer is limited by cardiotoxicity. The mechanisms underlying doxorubicin‐induced toxic cardiomyopathy (DICM) involve electrophysiological remodelling with intracellular Na+ overload because of increased late INa and hyperactivation of

Piezo1‐Mediated Mechanotransduction Contributes to Disturbed Flow‐Induced Atherosclerotic Endothelial Inflammation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Disturbed flow generates oscillatory shear stress (OSS), which in turn leads to endothelial inflammation and atherosclerosis. Piezo1, a biomechanical force sensor, plays a crucial role in the cardiovascular system.

Inhibition of leucine‐rich kinase 2 (LRRK2) promotes peripheral axon regeneration via phosphorylation‐network remodelling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose In contrast to neurons in the central nervous system, neurons in the peripheral nervous system can regenerate axons after injury via activation of a pro‐regenerative transcriptional programme. Pathogenic mutations in leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are the most common genetic cause of Parkinson's disease, and several small ...

Mitochondrial transfer in acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma: Mechanisms, consequences and potential therapeutic opportunities

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Mitochondria can be transferred from bone marrow cells to cancer cells in acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma, boosting tumour energy production, growth, and drug resistance. This review highlights key transfer mechanisms and shows how targeting mitochondrial movement and dynamics may offer new therapeutic strategies to limit cancer ...
