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.

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.

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

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

Mitochondria represent major sources of basal reactive oxygen species (ROS) production of the cardiomyocyte. The role of ROS as signalling molecules that mediate different intracellular pathways has gained increasing interest among physiologists in the ...

Reactive oxygen species in disease: Rebuttal of a conventional concept
The production of intracellular reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species has long been proposed as leading to the random deleterious modification of macromolecules (i.e., nucleic acids, proteins) with an associated progressive development of

Cellular Tolerance Induced by Chronic Opioids in the Central Nervous System
Opioids are powerful analgesics that elicit acute antinociceptive effects through their action the mu opioid receptor (MOR). However opioids are ineffective for chronic pain management, in part because continuous activation of MORs induces adaptive ...

Information Content in Stochastic Pulse Sequences of Intracellular Messengers
Many cell signaling pathways rely on oscillatory messenger concentrations even to transduce aperiodic environmental changes. The universal second messenger calcium, Ca2+ often exhibits pulsatile behavior in the presence of constant concentrations of ...

Physiological Sensing of Carbon Dioxide/Bicarbonate/pH via Cyclic Nucleotide Signaling
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is produced by living organisms as a byproduct of metabolism. In physiological systems, CO2 is unequivocally linked with bicarbonate (HCO3−) and pH via a ubiquitous family of carbonic anhydrases, and numerous biological processes are
