Cyclic AMP Pathway Activation and Extracellular Zinc Induce Rapid Intracellular Zinc Mobilization in Candida albicans [PDF]
Zinc is an essential micronutrient, required for a range of zinc-dependent enzymes and transcription factors. In mammalian cells, zinc serves as a second messenger molecule. However, a role for zinc in signaling has not yet been established in the fungal

Cyclic AMP metabolism and adenylate cyclase concentration in patients with advanced hepatic cirrhosis [PDF]
Glucagon was tested for its effect on plasma adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP), insulin, and glucose in healthy subjects and in patients with advanced cirrhosis of the liver. In the normal subjects, intravenous infusion of glucagon caused

Role of CRTC2 in Metabolic Homeostasis: Key Regulator of Whole-Body Energy Metabolism? [PDF]
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling is critical for regulating metabolic homeostasis in mammals. In particular, transcriptional regulation by cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) and its coactivator, CREB-regulated transcription ...

BackgroundMicroglia and macrophages play a central role in neuroinflammation. Pro-inflammatory cytokines trigger their conversion to a classically activated (M1) phenotype, sustaining inflammation and producing a cytotoxic environment.

Evidence that an adenyl cyclase system is present in all mammalian epidermis is reviewed. This adenyl cyclase is stimulated by at least two separate types of chemicals: catecholamines, which act at a beta-adrenergic receptor site, and prostaglandins of the E series, which act at a separate site.

Copper Regulates Cyclic AMP-Dependent Lipolysis
Cell signaling relies extensively on dynamic pools of redox-inactive metal ions such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and zinc, but their redox-active transition metal counterparts such as copper and iron have been studied primarily as static enzyme ...

c-di-AMP: An essential molecule in the signaling pathways that regulate the viability and virulence of gram-positive bacteria [PDF]
Signal transduction pathways enable organisms to monitor their external environment and adjust gene regulation to appropriately modify their cellular processes.

Objective: Upon activation, G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) associate with heterotrimeric G proteins at the plasma membrane to initiate second messenger signaling. Subsequently, the activated receptor experiences desensitization, internalization, and

Biguanides such as metformin have previously been shown to antagonize hepatic glucagon-stimulated cyclic AMP (cAMP) signalling independently of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) via direct inhibition of adenylate cyclase by AMP.

The role of c-Jun in controlling the EPAC1-dependent induction of the SOCS3 gene in HUVECs [PDF]
The cyclic AMP sensor, EPAC1, activates AP1-mediated transcription in HUVECs. Correspondingly, induction of the SOCS3 minimal promoter by EPAC1 requires a single AP1 site that constitutively binds phosphorylated (Ser63) c-Jun in DNA-pull-down assays.
