α‐adrenergic mobilization of hepatic mitochondrial calcium [PDF]
Recently it has been demonstrated that activation of a-adrenergic receptors by catecholamines in isolated rat liver parenchymal cells causes release of calcium from some intracellular store(s) [l-3] . It has been proposed that the resulting rise in cytosolic calcium is responsible for some of the metabolic changes observed [l-3].

The pharmacodynamics of drug-candidates is often optimized by metrics that describe target binding (Kd or Ki value) or target modulation (IC50). However, these metrics are determined at equilibrium conditions, and consequently information regarding the ...

Modulation of BCR Signaling by the Induced Dimerization of Receptor-Associated SYK
Clustering of the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) by polyvalent antigens is transmitted through the SYK tyrosine kinase to the activation of multiple intracellular pathways that determine the physiological consequences of receptor engagement.

Pharmacology of Kappa Opioid Receptors: Novel Assays and Ligands
The present study investigated the in vitro pharmacology of the human kappa opioid receptor using multiple assays, including calcium mobilization in cells expressing chimeric G proteins, the dynamic mass redistribution (DMR) label-free assay, and a ...

Age Dependent Changes in Corneal Epithelial Cell Signaling
The cornea is exposed daily to a number of mechanical stresses including shear stress from tear film and blinking. Over time, these stressors can lead to changes in the extracellular matrix that alter corneal stiffness, cell-substrate structures, and the
