British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Regular physical activity is an effective non‐pharmacological approach to hypertension management and maternal exercise improves offspring cardiovascular health, although mechanisms remain unclear. A‐kinase anchoring protein 150 (AKAP150) targets protein kinase Cα to L‐type Ca2+ channels (CaV1.2), enhancing vascular tone in ...

APC-β-catenin-TCF signaling silences the intestinal guanylin-GUCY2C tumor suppressor axis. [PDF]
, 2020 Sporadic colorectal cancer initiates with mutations in APC or its degradation target β-catenin, producing TCF-dependent nuclear transcription driving tumorigenesis. The intestinal epithelial receptor, GUCY2C, with its canonical paracrine hormone guanylin,

Tonic and phasic nitric oxide signals in hippocampal long-term potentiation [PDF]
, 2006 Nitric oxide ( NO) participates in long-term potentiation (LTP) and other forms of synaptic plasticity in many different brain areas but where it comes from and how it acts remain controversial.

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are among the leading global health challenges of the 21st century. While caloric restriction remains the cornerstone of weight loss interventions, ketogenic diets (KD), characterised by low carbohydrate and high fat intake, have been shown to improve metabolic health partly by modulating the ...

A supramolecular assembly of cone‐specific G‐protein and cryptochrome 4a on lipid bilayer
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Immobilized phospholipid bilayers on a sensor chip surface serve as membrane platform to investigate critical protein–lipid and protein–protein interaction processes by surface plasmon resonance. The putative magnetoreceptor cryptochrome 4a and the myristoylated cone‐specific G‐protein α‐subunit (Gtα) bind with high affinity to immobilized lipid ...

The effects of nitroxyl (HNO) on soluble guanylate cyclase activity: interactions at ferrous heme and cysteine thiols [PDF]
, 2009 It has been previously proposed that nitric oxide (NO) is the only biologically relevant nitrogen oxide capable of activating the enzyme soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). However, recent reports implicate HNO as another possible activator of sGC.

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.Our study showed that, in healthy controls, acute administration of linaclotide increased the total number of long‐distance propagating and the pre‐prandial pancolonic pressurizations. Further studies need to address whether the observed effects are directly or indirectly mediated by the mechanism of action of this useful medication to treat chronic ...
