The ever unfolding story of cAMP signaling in trypanosomatids: vive la difference! [PDF]
Kinetoplastids are unicellular, eukaryotic, flagellated protozoans containing the eponymous kinetoplast. Within this order, the family of trypanosomatids are responsible for some of the most serious human diseases, including Chagas disease (Trypanosoma ...

Lifestyle implications of the paradox and management of oxidative stress in sperm
Abstract figure legend Lifestyle factors influencing male fertility. Schematic overview of lifestyle factors with beneficial (left) and detrimental (right) effects on male fertility. A balanced diet, regular moderate physical activity and stress management strategies support sperm function and redox homeostasis.

Defective CFTR-dependent CREB activation results in impaired spermatogenesis and azoospermia. [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common life-limiting recessive genetic disease among Caucasians caused by mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) with over 95% male patients infertile.

Inhibition of cAMP/PKA Pathway Protects Optic Nerve Head Astrocytes against Oxidative Stress by Akt/Bax Phosphorylation-Mediated Mfn1/2 Oligomerization. [PDF]
Glaucoma is characterized by a progressive optic nerve degeneration and retinal ganglion cell loss, but the underlying biological basis for the accompanying neurodegeneration is not known.

Role of soluble adenylyl cyclase in cell death and growth
cAMP signaling is an evolutionarily conserved intracellular communication system controlling numerous cellular functions. Until recently, transmembrane adenylyl cyclase (tmAC) was considered the major source for cAMP in the cell, and the role of cAMP signaling was therefore attributed exclusively to the activity of this family of enzymes.

Involvement of Ca2+ channels in boldine‐induced vascular relaxation. ABSTRACT The regulation of vascular tone plays a fundamental role in blood pressure homeostasis and still represents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Boldine, a naturally occurring alkaloid from Peumus boldus, has emerged as a compound of interest due to its therapeutic ...

ADENYLYL CYCLASE TYPE 9: REGULATION AND CARDIAC FUNCTION [PDF]
Abnormalities in cardiac stress signaling underlie a number of cardiovascular diseases (e.g. arrhythmias and heart failure). Cardiac stress signaling pathways normally integrate signals from the sympathetic nervous system to promote efficient contraction

Factors That Influence Primary Cilium Length [PDF]
Almost all mammalian cells carry one primary cilium that functions as a biosensor for chemical and mechanical stimuli. Genetic damages that compromise cilia formation or function cause a spectrum of disorders referred to as ciliapathies.
