Glutamate induces autophagy via the two-pore channels in neural cells [PDF]
NAADP (nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate) has been proposed as a second messenger for glutamate in neuronal and glial cells via the activation of the lysosomal Ca2+ channels TPC1 and TPC2.

Second messenger systems in Tourette's syndrome
Abnormalities within second messenger systems have been hypothesized as the underlying pathophysiologic mechanism in a variety of neuropsychiatric disorders. In the Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (TS) prior studies have shown that the concentration of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) is reduced in cortical and putamen brain regions.

Second Messenger Systems in Human Gliomas
AbstractContext.—Patients with glioblastoma (astrocytoma, World Health Organization grade IV) exhibit 2-year survival rates of less than 20% despite significant advances in therapeutic options available to patients. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) hyperexpression is one of the most commonly encountered abnormalities in this tumor. However, EGFR

Cosmological vacuum selection and metastable susy breaking [PDF]
We study gauge mediation in a wide class of O'Raifeartaigh type models where supersymmetry breaking metastable vacuum is created by gravity and/or quantum corrections.

Ca2+ Signaling by TRPV4 Channels in Respiratory Function and Disease
Members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily are broadly expressed in our body and contribute to multiple cellular functions. Most interestingly, the fourth member of the vanilloid family of TRP channels (TRPV4) serves different ...

Summary: Cyclic di-guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is a unique bacterial second messenger but is hijacked by host cells during bacterial infection as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) to trigger STING-dependent immune responses.

Cell cycle control and environmental response by second messengers in Caulobacter crescentus
Background Second messengers, c-di-GMP and (p)ppGpp, are vital regulatory molecules in bacteria, influencing cellular processes such as biofilm formation, transcription, virulence, quorum sensing, and proliferation.
