Heterogeneity in surface sensing suggests a division of labor in Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations [PDF]
The second messenger signaling molecule cyclic diguanylate monophosphate (c-di-GMP) drives the transition between planktonic and biofilm growth in many bacterial species.

Artificial Signal Transduction
Communication between and inside cells as well as their response to external stimuli relies on elaborated systems of signal transduction. They all require a directional transmission across membranes, often realized by primary messenger docking onto ...

Differential actions of second messenger systems in the corpus luteum.
Our current working hypothesis for the intracellular mechanism of action for LH and PGF-2 alpha is shown in Fig. 8. Luteinizing hormone appears to act primarily on the small luteal cell through the cAMP/protein kinase A effector system and thereby ...

secCl is a cys-loop ion channel necessary for the chloride conductance that mediates hormone-induced fluid secretion in Drosophila [PDF]
Organisms use circulating diuretic hormones to control water balance (osmolarity), thereby avoiding dehydration and managing excretion of waste products.

Students and instant messaging: a survey of current use and demands for higher education [PDF]
Instant messaging (IM) is the term used to describe the technology through which ‘users can set up a list of partners who will be able to receive notes that pop up on their screens the moment one of them writes and hits the send button’.

The Multiple Regulatory Relationship Between RNA-Chaperone Hfq and the Second Messenger c-di-GMP
RNA chaperone protein Hfq is an important post-transcriptional regulator in bacteria, while c-di-GMP is a second messenger signaling molecule widely distributed in bacteria.

Inhibitors of second messenger pathways and Ca2+-induced exposure of phosphatidylserine in red blood cells of patients with sickle cell disease [PDF]
The present work investigates the contribution of various second messenger systems to Ca2+-induced phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure in red blood cells (RBCs) from sickle cell disease (SCD) patients.

Deconvolution of complex G protein-coupled receptor signaling in live cells using dynamic mass redistribution measurements [PDF]
Label-free biosensor technology based on dynamic mass redistribution (DMR) of cellular constituents promises to translate GPCR signaling into complex optical 'fingerprints' in real time in living cells.

Nuclear expression of diacylglycerol kinases: possible involvement in DNA replication
The existence of intranuclear lipid-dependent signal transduction systems has been demonstrated by several independent groups. Remarkably, intranuclear lipid-dependent signal transduction pathways are regulated independently from their membrane/cytosolic
