The Phosphodiesterases in the Rat Pancreas [PDF]
The purification of two phosphodiesterases found in the rat pancreas is described. The phosphodiesterase I, an enzyme of the snake venom type, has been purified about 500 times, the phosphodiesterase II, an enzyme of the spleen type, about 60 times. The phosphodiesterase I activity, optimal at a pH of about 9.0, is completely dependent on the presence ...

Influence of N-phenyl-2-naphthylamine on the Activity of Adenylate Cyclase Signaling System and the Virulence of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus [PDF]
The effect of N-phenyl-2-naphthylamine was obtained from exudates of pea root on growth, virulence and signaling-specific of potato phytopathogen Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus. It is shown that the compound in a physiological concentration

BolA Is Required for the Accurate Regulation of c-di-GMP, a Central Player in Biofilm Formation
The bacterial second messenger cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) is a nearly ubiquitous intracellular signaling molecule involved in the transition from the motile to the sessile/biofilm state in bacteria.

Portopulmonary hypertension practice patterns after liver transplantation
Abstract Portopulmonary hypertension (POPH) is a type of pulmonary arterial hypertension occurring exclusively in those with portal hypertensive liver disease. Liver transplantation (LT) can significantly improve outcomes. Current guidelines counsel against immediate adjustments to targeted therapy after LT and suggest routine echocardiography as ...

Influence of metabolism modifiers of cyclic nucleotides on contractility of right ventricle of rat heart with intact and removed endocardial endothelium [PDF]
Introduction. Endocardial endothelium, a natural biological barrier between circulating blood in heart ventricle and cells, creates a complex yet finely tuned balance of interactions with the immediate environment. Objective. We investigated the roles

Functional Significance of the Adcy10-Dependent Intracellular cAMP Compartments
Mounting evidence confirms the compartmentalized structure of evolutionarily conserved 3′–5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling, which allows for simultaneous participation in a wide variety of physiological functions and ensures specificity,
