Modulators of Diacylglycerol Kinase Activity: A Review of Advances and Challenges

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Catalyzing the conversion of diacylglycerol (DAG) in phosphatidic acid (PA), diacylglycerol kinases (DGKs) play a pivotal role in all the physiological processes modulated by these two bioactive lipids, such as lipid metabolism and immune regulation.

Astaxanthin Prevents Mitochondrial Impairment Induced by Isoproterenol in Isolated Rat Heart Mitochondria

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2020
Mitochondria are considered to be a power station of the cell. It is known that they play a major role in both normal and pathological heart function. Alterations in mitochondrial bioenergetics are one of the main causes of the origin and progression of ...

Lung‐Derived Small Extracellular Vesicles Containing miR‐15a‐5p/miR‐96‐5p Promote Myocardial Fibrosis in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy via Targeting SMAD7

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are critical regulators of inter‐tissue communication in cardiovascular diseases. In this study, it is found that lung‐derived sEVs enhance cardiac fibroblasts activation and aggravates myocardial fibrosis progression in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). sEVmiR‐15a‐5p and sEVmiR‐96‐5p exert this effect via targeting

PDE4D and PDE3B orchestrate distinct cAMP microdomains in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Basal conditions: •Ins/PDE3B lowers cytoplasmic cAMP (cyt‐cAMP) without affecting plasma membrane cAMP (pm‐cAMP). •Insulin decreases lipid droplet cAMP (LD‐cAMP) independent of PDE3B. •FGF1/PDE4D modestly reduces both cyt‐ and pm‐cAMP, while PDE4D alone can modulate LD‐cAMP. ISO stimulation: •Ins/PDE3B has minimal impact on cyt‐cAMP.
