PACAP interacts with PAC1 receptors to induce tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) expression and activity in schwann cell-like cultures. [PDF]
Regeneration of peripheral nerves depends on the abilities of rejuvenating axons to migrate at the injury site through cellular debris and altered extracellular matrix, and then grow along the residual distal nerve sheath conduit and reinnervate synaptic

Structures of human dynein in complex with the lissencephaly 1 protein, LIS1
The lissencephaly 1 protein, LIS1, is mutated in type-1 lissencephaly and is a key regulator of cytoplasmic dynein-1. At a molecular level, current models propose that LIS1 activates dynein by relieving its autoinhibited form.

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: G protein‐coupled receptors
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,

An archaeal homolog of proteasome assembly factor functions as a proteasome activator. [PDF]
Assembly of the eukaryotic 20S proteasome is an ordered process involving several proteins operating as proteasome assembly factors including PAC1-PAC2 but archaeal 20S proteasome subunits can spontaneously assemble into an active cylindrical ...

Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) are structurally related neuropeptides that are widely expressed in vertebrate tissues. The two neuropeptides are pleiotropic and have been associated with

ABSTRACT Low‐dose ketamine is an efficacious antidepressant for treatment‐resistant unipolar and bipolar depressed patients. Major depressive disorder patients receiving a single infusion report elevated mood within 2 h, and ketamine's antidepressant effects have been observed as long as 7 days posttreatment.

Neuronal PAC1 deletion impairs structural plasticity
Aims: Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) is an endogenous neuropeptide of the central nervous system (CNS), whose biological activities are mediated via three G protein-coupled receptors PAC1, VPAC1, and VPAC2. While its neuroprotective functions are well-characterised, the role of PAC1 receptor-specific signalling in neuronal ...

In Silico Screening Identified Novel Small-molecule Antagonists of PAC1 Receptor [PDF]
Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) and its receptors are present in the spinal dorsal horn and dorsal root ganglia, suggesting an important role of PACAP signaling systems in the modulation of spinal nociceptive transmission. Previously, we found that intrathecal injection of PACAP or maxadilan, a selective PACAP type I (PAC1 ...
