Integrated Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveals the Genetic Basis of Phenotypic Variation in Tibetan Sheep

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
SNaPshot‐validated GWAS results demonstrated significant correlations between candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and body size traits in Tibetan sheep. Concurrently, hematoxylin and eosin staining, alongside muscle fiber analysis, confirmed pronounced morphological differences in muscle tissue between sheep of varying conformation.

The Impact of Common Medications on Male Fertility: An Updated Systematic Review

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Compared with those of cytotoxic treatments, the potential effects of common medications on the fertility of men trying to conceive currently or planning to conceive in the future are less well described. The use of common medications may modify the gonadotropic axis, spermatogenesis, and epididymal maturation or alter male ...

CNP-induced cGMP signaling reduces growth cone stiffness and Ca2+ levels in embryonic DRG neurons

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
A cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) signaling pathway composed of the extracellular ligand C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), the transmembrane natriuretic peptide receptor 2 (Npr2), and the cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (cGKI) regulates axon ...

6‐Nitrodopamine as a Novel Mediator of Prostatic Smooth Muscle Function in Mouse and Human

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Epithelium‐derived catecholamines contribute to local regulation of genitourinary smooth muscle function, but the role of the endogenous 6‐nitrodopamine (6‐ND) in the prostate remains unknown. Objectives To determine whether 6‐ND is produced by mouse and human prostate and its role in smooth muscle regulation.

Prevention of Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in the Rat Liver by Atrial Natriuretic Peptide [PDF]

, 2002
This work characterizes the protective effects of ANP preconditioning in ischemia-reperfusion injury of the isolated perfused rat liver. It was of particular interest to evaluate the influence of ANP on the mode of cell death occurring during cold ...

Optogenetic elevation of postsynaptic cGMP in the hippocampal dentate gyrus enhances LTP and modifies mouse behaviors

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
A major intracellular messenger implicated in synaptic plasticity and cognitive functions both in health and disease is cyclic GMP (cGMP). Utilizing a photoactivatable guanylyl cyclase (BlgC) actuator to increase cGMP in dentate granule neurons of the ...

Enhancement of Learning Behaviour by a Potent Nitric Oxide-Guanylate Cyclase Activator Yc-1

, 2009
Memory is one of the most fundamental mental processes, and various approaches have been used to understand the mechanisms underlying this process. Nitric oxide (NO), cGMP and protein kinase G (PKG) are involved in the modulation of synaptic plasticity ...

Differential Sperm DNA Methylation Profiles in Healthy Men With High Versus Low Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet in the Led‐Fertyl Study

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diet is known to play an essential role not only in sperm quality but also in offspring health, likely mediated through the sperm epigenome. Moreover, one of the main components of the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) (i.e., nuts) have shown to impact sperm DNA methylation patterns.

Compartmentalisation in cAMP signalling: A phase separation perspective

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cells rely on precise spatiotemporal control of signalling pathways to ensure functional specificity. The compartmentalisation of cyclic AMP (cAMP) and protein kinase A (PKA) signalling enables distinct cellular responses within a crowded cytoplasmic space.

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.
