Cyclic ADP-ribose: A new member of a super family of signalling cyclic nucleotides

open access: yesCellular Signalling, 1994
Cyclic nucleotides are second messengers exerting their cellular effects mainly through protein phosphorylation, A new member of this family, cyclic ADP-ribose, is involved, instead, in mediating mobilization of Ca2+ from internal stores.

Cyclic ADP-Ribose Measurements in Rat Pancreatic Islets

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1997
Cyclic ADP-ribose was measured by a radioimmunological procedure in rat pancreatic islets. The cyclic ADP-ribose content of the islets was much lower immediately after isolation (< or = 2.3 +/- 0.2 fmol/islet) than after a further incubation of 90 min in a salt-balanced medium (26.4 +/- 1.3 fmol/islet).

Cyclic ADP-ribose, the ryanodine receptor and Ca2+ release

Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 1995
In a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate tissues the ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ channel is the pathway for Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. The mechanism for activation of the ryanodine receptor-channel complex appears to depend both on the ryanodine receptor isoform and the cell type.

The CD38/cyclic ADP-ribose system: A topological paradox

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 1997
CD38 was first identified as a lymphocyte differentiation antigen that showed typical properties of an orphan receptor involved in many programs of cell proliferation and activation. However, CD38 proved also to be a bifunctional ectoenzyme that catalyzes the transient formation of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) in a variety of cell types.

A Redox Role for Cyclic ADP-Ribose

Science's STKE, 2001
Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is a normal physiological response that coordinates pulmonary perfusion to respiratory ventilation. NADH (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is thought to have a role in pulmonary artery contraction.

The Kinetics of Cyclic ADP-Ribose Formation in Heart Muscle

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1995
The kinetics of NAD glycohydrolase activity in cardiac muscle homogenates were investigated using HPLC and TLC techniques to identify reaction products. NAD was found to undergo enzymatic hydrolysis yielding ADP-ribose (ADPR) as well as a cyclase reaction resulting in the formation of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR).

The cyclic-ADP–ribose signaling pathway in human myometrium

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2002
Human myometrial contraction plays a fundamental role in labor. Dysfunction of uterine contraction is an important cause of failure in progression of labor. The mechanisms of control of uterine contractions are not completely understood. It appears that intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization may play an important role during uterine contraction.

Synthesis and Degradation of Cyclic ADP-Ribose by NAD Glycohydrolases

Science, 1993
Cyclic adenosine diphosphoribose (cADPR), a recently discovered metabolite of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), is a potent calcium-releasing agent postulated to be a new second messenger. An enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of cADPR from NAD and the hydrolysis of cADPR to ADP-ribose (ADPR) was purified to homogeneity from canine spleen ...
