Tauroursodeoxycholic acid exerts anticholestatic effects by a cooperative cPKC alpha-/PKA-dependent mechanism in rat liver. [PDF]
Objective: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) exerts anticholestatic effects in part by protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent mechanisms. Its taurine conjugate, TUDCA, is a cPKCa agonist.

Genetically Encoded Biosensors Reveal PKA Hyperphosphorylation on the Myofilaments in Rabbit Heart Failure [PDF]
RATIONALE: In heart failure, myofilament proteins display abnormal phosphorylation, which contributes to contractile dysfunction. The mechanisms underlying the dysregulation of protein phosphorylation on myofilaments is not clear.

Neuromodulation of excitatory synaptogenesis in striatal development
Dopamine is released in the striatum during development and impacts the activity of Protein Kinase A (PKA) in striatal spiny projection neurons (SPNs).

Heat Shock Protein 20 (HSP20) is a novel substrate for Protein Kinase D1 (PKD1) [PDF]
Heat shock protein 20 (HSP20) has cardioprotective qualities, which are triggered by PKA phosphorylation. PKD1 is also a binding partner for HSP20, and this prompted us to investigate whether the chaperone was a substrate for PKD1.

Cell-type specific asynchronous modulation of PKA by dopamine in learning
Reinforcement learning models postulate that neurons that release dopamine encode information about action and action outcome, and provide a teaching signal to striatal spiny projection neurons in the form of dopamine release1.

Exploring the pKa, Molecular Binding, and Caspase-3 Activation Potential of Coumarin Derivatives [PDF]
Caspase-3 is a central executioner protease in apoptosis, and its activation by small molecules is considered a promising anticancer strategy. Coumarin derivatives are known for their diverse biological activities, but the influence of structural ...
