A shear-dependent NO-cGMP-cGKI cascade in platelets acts as an auto-regulatory brake of thrombosis

Nature Communications, 2018
Nitric oxide (NO) inhibits thrombosis in part by stimulating cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) production and cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (cGKI) activity in platelets. Here, Wen et al.

Pharmacology and clinical potential of guanylyl cyclase C agonists in the treatment of ulcerative colitis. [PDF]

, 2013
Agonists of the transmembrane intestinal receptor guanylyl cyclase C (GCC) have recently attracted interest as promising human therapeutics. Peptide ligands that can specifically induce GCC signaling in the intestine include endogenous hormones guanylin ...

Luzhou‐Flavor Baijiu Alleviates Stress‐Related Depressive‐Like Changes by NMDAR‐NO‐sGC‐cGMP Pathway

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Luzhou‐flavor baijiu (LFB) alleviates depressive‐like phenotypes in CRS‐induced mice and protects HT22 cells from corticosterone damage, with mechanisms linked to suppressing the NMDAR‐nNOS/iNOS‐NO‐sGC‐cGMP pathway. ABSTRACT Moderate alcohol consumption has been suggested to alleviate anxiety and depression; however, it remains unclear whether Luzhou ...

Nitric Oxide Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Expression and Its Own Production Through the cGMP Signaling Pathway in Murine Microglia BV-2 Cells

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
The present study examined the effect of the nitric oxide (NO) donor NOC18 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NO production to investigate a regulation mechanism of NO production by microglial cells.

Move beyond free radical theory of aging

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Free radicals play a dual, dose‐dependent role in aging. Low levels activate the key sensor adenosine 5'‐monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), promoting cell survival mechanisms like autophagy and enhancing mitochondrial health. High levels, however, push AMPK to initiate cell death pathways, such as apoptosis. This positions AMPK as a central

The cyclic GMP modulators YC-1 and zaprinast reduce vessel remodeling through anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects [PDF]

, 2009
Guanosine-specific cyclic nucleotide signaling is suggested to serve protective actions in the vasculature; however, the influence of selective pharmacologic modulation of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (GMP)-synthesizing soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC ...

Nano‐plastics disrupt systemic metabolism by remodeling the bile acid–microbiota axis and driving hepatic–intestinal dysfunction

iMeta, EarlyView.
The pervasiveness of microplastic pollution poses a growing health risk, yet its long‐term metabolic consequences remain poorly defined. Here, we exposed mice to polyethylene terephthalate nanoparticle (NP) and combined histopathology, biochemistry, metabolomics, and metagenomics to resolve their interactions.

A guanosine 5′-triphosphate-dependent protein kinase is localized in the outer envelope membrane of pea chloroplasts [PDF]

, 1988
A guanosine 5-triphosphate (GTP)-dependent protein kinase was detected in preparations of outer chloroplast envelope membranes of pea (Pisum sativum L.) chloroplasts.

Adipose‐derived small extracellular vesicles exacerbate microvascular dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction via mmu‐miR‐582‐3p‐mediated Rap1b suppression

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This study reveals that small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) from visceral fat compromise coronary microcirculation in a mouse model of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The SGLT2 inhibitor canagliflozin emerges as a therapeutic strategy, improving cardiac function and endothelial health.

Chemotaxis of Arbacia punctulata spermatozoa to resact, a peptide from the egg jelly layer [PDF]

, 1985
Resact, a peptide of known sequence isolated from the jelly layer of Arbacia punctulata eggs, is a potent chemoattractant for A. punctulata spermatozoa. The chemotactic response is concentration dependent, is abolished by pretreatment of the spermatozoa ...
