Cyclic nucleotide‐dependent inhibitory signaling interweaves with activating pathways to determine platelet responses

open access: yesResearch and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2018
Platelets are regulated by extracellular cues that impact on intracellular signaling. The endothelium releases prostacyclin and nitric oxide which stimulate the synthesis of cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP leading to platelet inhibition.

Cyclic nucleotide permeability through unopposed connexin hemichannels

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2013
Cyclic AMP is a well-known intracellular and intercellular second messenger. The membrane permeability of such molecules has potential importance for autocrine like or paracrine-like delivery.

Cyclic nucleotide in oocyte In vitro maturation in Assisted Reproductive Technology

open access: yesJournal of Biomedicine and Translational Research, 2020
In vitro maturation (IVM) is a promising assisted reproductive technology (ART) for human infertility treatment. However, when cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) are removed from their follicular environment when manipulated in vitro, it can lead to a ...

Cyclic nucleotide specific phosphodiesterases of Leishmania major

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2006
Background Leishmania represent a complex of important human pathogens that belong to the systematic order of the kinetoplastida. They are transmitted between their human and mammalian hosts by different bloodsucking sandfly vectors.

Nucleotides as Bacterial Second Messengers

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
In addition to comprising monomers of nucleic acids, nucleotides have signaling functions and act as second messengers in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The most common example is cyclic AMP (cAMP).

AMPK antagonizes hepatic glucagon-stimulated cyclic AMP signalling via phosphorylation-induced activation of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 4B

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
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.

PDE-Mediated Cyclic Nucleotide Compartmentation in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: From Basic to a Clinical Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
Cardiovascular diseases are important causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are major components of blood vessels and are involved in physiologic and pathophysiologic conditions.

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...

BOOL-AN: A method for comparative sequence analysis and phylogenetic reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A novel discrete mathematical approach is proposed as an additional tool for molecular systematics which does not require prior statistical assumptions concerning the evolutionary process.

A unique choanoflagellate enzyme rhodopsin exhibits light-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2017
Photoactivated adenylyl cyclase (PAC) and guanylyl cyclase rhodopsin increase the concentrations of intracellular cyclic nucleotides upon illumination, serving as promising second-generation tools in optogenetics. To broaden the arsenal of such tools, it
