Differential Distribution of Retinal Ca2+/Calmodulin-Dependent Kinase II (CaMKII) Isoforms Indicates CaMKII-β and -δ as Specific Elements of Electrical Synapses Made of Connexin36 (Cx36) [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017 AII amacrine cells are essential interneurons of the primary rod pathway and transmit rod-driven signals to ON cone bipolar cells to enable scotopic vision.

Integrated mechanisms of CaMKII-dependent ventricular remodeling
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2014 CaMKII has been shown to be activated during different cardiac pathological processes, and CaMKII-dependent mechanisms contribute to pathological cardiac remodeling, cardiac arrhythmias and contractile dysfunction during heart failure.

Ser-Thr phosphatases in the rat brain that dephosphorylate phospho-Ser(1291)-GluN2A subunit of glutamate receptor [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2023 N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs), are one of the major ionotropic glutamate receptors found in excitatory synapses which play a key role in glutamatergic synaptic transmission.

iScience, 2022 Summary: Aβ bears homology to the CaMKII regulatory domain, and peptides derived from this domain can bind and disrupt the CaMKII holoenzyme, suggesting that Aβ could have a similar effect.

Exploring Excitotoxicity and Regulation of a Constitutively Active TRP Ca2+ Channel in Drosophila
Fly, 2021 Unregulated Ca2+ influx affects intracellular Ca2+ homoeostasis, which may lead to neuronal death. In Drosophila, following the activation of rhodopsin the TRP Ca2+ channel is open to mediate the light-dependent depolarization.

Targeting the CaMKII/ERK Interaction in the Heart Prevents Cardiac Hypertrophy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Activation of Ca2+/Calmodulin protein kinase II (CaMKII) is an important step in signaling of cardiac hypertrophy. The molecular mechanisms by which CaMKII integrates with other pathways in the heart are incompletely understood.

Locally-Induced CaMKII Translocation Requires Nucleotide Binding
Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2020 Calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMKII) is a molecule involved in several cell processes including plasticity related to learning and memory. Activation of NMDA-type glutamate receptors results in translocation of CaMKII to synapses. However,
