Cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate (cGAMP) is normally induced by innate immunity sensing for protection from pathogens. Here the authors show that cGAMP is also upstream of DNA damage signaling by activating ATM-CHK2-mediated repair ...

Development of a red fluorescent protein-based cGMP indicator applicable for live-cell imaging
A red fluorescent protein-based indicator of cyclic guanosine 3′, 5′-monophosphate (cGMP) allows for multi-colour imaging and optogenetic applications while monitoring cGMP activity in cells.

Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate Compartmentation in Rat Cardiac Myocytes [PDF]
Background— Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is the common second messenger for the cardiovascular effects of nitric oxide (NO) and natriuretic peptides, such as atrial or brain natriuretic peptide, which activate the soluble and particulate forms of guanylyl cyclase, respectively.

Vericiguat: A New Hope for Heart Failure Patients
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is the inability of the heart to adequately contract or eject blood. This heart is unable to produce adequate cardiac output to perfuse vital tissues.

The role of Phosphodiesterase-1 and its natural product inhibitors in Alzheimer’s disease: A review
Phosphodiesterase-1 (PDE1) is a versatile enzyme that has surprisingly received considerable attention as a possible therapeutic target in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) because it maintains the homeostasis of 3ʹ,5ʹ-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3ʹ,

Neointima formation is promoted by surgical preparation and inhibited by cyclic nucleotides in human saphenous vein organ cultures [PDF]
Intimal thickening is an important cause of late coronary vein graft occlusion, which no variation of surgical technique or pharmacologic intervention has been shown to reduce.

Selective phosphodiesterase-5 inhibition reduces neointimal hyperplasia in rat carotid arteries after surgical endarterectomy. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Long-term results of surgical vessel reconstruction are compromised by restenosis caused by neointimal hyperplasia. Recent studies suggest that reduced cyclic guanosine monophosphate signaling is associated with neointima formation.

Imaging of PDE2- and PDE3-Mediated cGMP-to-cAMP Cross-Talk in Cardiomyocytes
Cyclic nucleotides 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3′,5′-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) are important second messengers that regulate cardiovascular function and disease by acting in discrete subcellular microdomains.

Liberators of NO exert a dual effect on renin secretion from isolated mouse renal juxtaglomerular cells [PDF]
This study aimed to examine the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the regulation of renin secretion from renal juxtaglomerular (JG) cells. Using primary cultures of mouse renal JG cells, we found that sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and 3-morpholino-sydnonimin ...

Effect of cyclic guanosine‐monophosphate on porcine retinal vasomotion [PDF]
Abstract.Purpose: Vasomotion refers to periodic oscillations in vascular tone that ensure the intermittent supply of blood to adjacent microvascular units. Previous evidence from vessels outside the eye suggests that cyclic guanosine‐monophosphate (cGMP) is involved in the regulation of vasomotion, but it is unknown whether this compound has an ...
