Disruption of Hepatic Sinusoidal Homeostasis Leads to Hepatopulmonary Syndrome
ABSTRACT Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a pulmonary vascular complication of liver disease and/or portal hypertension. HPS manifests as impaired gas exchange and hypoxemia due to intrapulmonary vascular dilatations and shunts. In response to primary liver disease, the abnormal adaptation of respiratory epithelial cells, pulmonary endothelial cells ...

ROS-GC interlocked Ca2+-sensor S100B protein signaling in cone photoreceptors: review [PDF]
Photoreceptor rod outer segment membrane guanylate cyclase (ROS-GC) is central to visual transduction; it generates cyclic GMP, the second messenger of the photon signal.

Repurposing Riociguat for Treatment of Refractory Angina Resulting From Coronary Spasm
Coronary spasm is a frequent cause of angina despite unobstructed coronary arteries, and symptom control with recommended drugs is limited. We report the case of a 77-year-old woman who had refractory angina despite conventional antianginal treatment ...

APC-β-catenin-TCF signaling silences the intestinal guanylin-GUCY2C tumor suppressor axis. [PDF]
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,

Factors Affecting the Activity of Guanylate Cyclase in Lysates of Human Blood Platelets [PDF]
The mechanism by which physiological stimuli increase cyclic GMP formation in platelets or in other cells is unknown. Agents that promote the formation of cyclic GMP in intact cells have in general not been found to stimulate the activity of guanylate ...
