The role of LRRK2 in lung adenocarcinoma

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and the most commonlung cancer subtype is lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Frequently mutated genes involveactivating mutations in KRAS and loss of function mutations in TP53. LUADs primarily a ...

Gαi1 inhibition mechanism of ATP-bound adenylyl cyclase type 5

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen, Daniele Narzi

Conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to the second messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is an essential reaction mechanism that takes place in eukaryotes, triggering a variety of signal transduction pathways. ATP conversion is catalyzed by ...

Homogeneous light stimulation of melanopsin and cones with a Maxwellian view device for the human eye

We designed and tested a device to stimulate specifically one photoreceptor type, or a combination of some of them, of the human eye by using up to six primaries. The device produces a homogeneous light field over 40 degrees which is projected onto the ret ...

BAF restricts cGAS on nuclear DNA to prevent innate immune activation

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Beat Fierz, Andrea Ablasser, Baptiste Claude André Guey, Alexiane Clara Decout, Murat Kaynak, Kristina Makasheva, Marilena Wischnewski

The appearance of DNA in the cytosol is perceived as a danger signal that stimulates potent immune responses through cyclic guanosine monophosphate–adenosine monophosphate synthase (cGAS). How cells regulate the activity of cGAS toward self-DNA and guard a ...

Increasing heart vascularisation after myocardial infarction using brain natriuretic peptide stimulation of endothelial and WT1(+) epicardial cells

Na Li

Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) treatment increases heart function and decreases heart dilation after myocardial infarction (MI). Here, we investigated whether part of the cardioprotective effect of BNP in infarcted hearts related to improved neovascularis ...

Regulation of adenylyl cyclase 5 in striatal neurons confers the ability to detect coincident neuromodulatory signals

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen, Daniele Narzi, Paolo Carloni

Author summary Adenylyl cyclases (ACs) are enzymes that can translate extracellular signals into the intracellular molecule cAMP, which is thus a 2nd messenger of extracellular events. The brain expresses nine membrane-bound AC variants, and AC5 is the dom ...

Association of Both Inhibitory and Stimulatory G alpha Subunits Implies Adenylyl Cyclase 5 Deactivation

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen, Daniele Narzi

Adenylyl cyclase (AC) generates cyclic AMP required for a variety of cellular functions, and its regulation plays a major role in cellular signal transduction in eukaryotes and prokaryotes. All membrane-bound AC isoforms in eukaryotes can be activated by s ...

An iris diaphragm mechanism to gate a cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channel

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) ion channels are non-selective cation channels key to signal transduction. The free energy difference of cyclic-nucleotide (cAMP/cGMP) binding/unbinding is translated into mechanical work to modulate the open/closed probabilit ...

Exploring the inhibition mechanism of adenylyl cyclase type 5 by n-terminal myristoylated Gαi1

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen

Adenylyl cyclase (AC) is an important messenger involved in G-protein-coupled-receptor signal transduction pathways, which is a well-known target for drug development. AC is regulated by activated stimulatory (Gαs) and inhibitory (Gαi) G proteins in the cy ...

Computational Investigation of Intracellular Signalling Cascades

Siri Camee van Keulen

In order to adjust to changes in the environment, cells can communicate via signalling cascades. A common pathway for intercellular communication is the G-protein-coupled- receptor (GPCR) signal transduction cascade which is triggered by a (chemical or phy ...
