cAMP−EPAC−PKCε−RIM1α signaling regulates presynaptic long-term potentiation and motor learning
eLife, 2023 The cerebellum is involved in learning of fine motor skills, yet whether presynaptic plasticity contributes to such learning remains elusive. Here, we report that the EPAC-PKCε module has a critical role in a presynaptic form of long-term potentiation in

The Tails of Protein Kinase A [PDF]
Molecular Pharmacology, 2022 Protein kinase A (PKA) is a holoenzyme consisting of a regulatory (R)-subunit dimer and two catalytic (C)-subunits. There are two major families of C-subunits, Cα and Cβ, and four functionally nonredundant R-subunits (RIα, RIβ, RIIα, RIIβ). In addition to binding to and being regulated by the R-subunits, the C-subunits are regulated by two tail regions

Biomolecules, 2022 Eukaryotic cells have developed a complex circuitry of signalling molecules which monitor changes in their intra- and extracellular environments. One of the most widely studied signalling pathways is the highly conserved cyclic AMP (cAMP)/protein kinase ...

The Extract of Humulus japonicus Inhibits Lipogenesis and Promotes Lipolysis via PKA/p38 Signaling
Obesity FactsIntroduction: Previous research has shown that an aqueous extract of Humulus japonicus (EH) can ameliorate hypertension, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and oxidative stress in adipocytes by activating the thermogenic pathway.

Protein Kinase A Transgenes [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2001 The β-adrenergic receptor/adenylyl cyclase/protein kinase A (PKA) axis is the central signaling pathway that serves to stimulate cardiac function. It is classically perceived as a linear signaling cascade (Figure), and cAMP is thought to be the second messenger responsible for the positive inotropic, chronotropic, and lusitropic effects of ...

A-Kinase Anchoring Protein-Lbc: A Molecular Scaffold Involved in Cardiac Protection
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2018 Heart failure is a lethal disease that can develop after myocardial infarction, hypertension, or anticancer therapy. In the damaged heart, loss of function is mainly due to cardiomyocyte death and associated cardiac remodeling and fibrosis.

MAPKAP kinase-2; a novel protein kinase activated by mitogen-activated protein kinase. [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 1992 A novel protein kinase, which was only active when phosphorylated by the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase), has been purified 85,000-fold to homogeneity from rabbit skeletal muscle. This MAP kinase activated protein kinase, termed MAPKAP kinase-2, was distinguished from S6 kinase-II (MAPKAP kinase-1) by its response to inhibitors, lack of ...
