cGMP-signalling pathway in development
Wnt signalling in development operates via members of the Frizzleds, G-protein-coupled receptors that bind specific Wnt ligands and mediate signalling via distinct pathways. The Wnt/Ca2+/cGMP pathway mediated by Frizzled-2 was discovered recently. Activation of this pathway leads to increased intracellular concentrations of Ca2+ and decreased intracellular concentrations of cGMP. The nature of ...
متن کاملL-arginine-NO-cGMP signalling pathway in pancreatitis
The role of nitric oxide (NO) in the human pancreas and in pancreatitis still remains controversial. Furthermore, conflicting conclusions have been reached by different laboratories about the localization of the NO-generating enzyme (NO synthase, NOS) in the pancreas. Here, we investigated the co-expression of NOS with enzymes involved in regulation of NO signalling in the normal human pancreas...
متن کاملInhibition of the TGFβ signalling pathway by cGMP and cGMP‐dependent kinase I in renal fibrosis
Agents that enhance production of nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) ameliorate the progression of renal fibrosis. However, the molecular mechanism of this process is not fully understood. We hypothesize that the antifibrotic effects of cGMP and cGMP-dependent kinase I (cGKI) are mediated via regulation of the TGFβ signalling pathway, both via ERK and the Smad-dependent...
متن کاملcGMP signalling in a transporting epithelium.
The biochemical aspects of cGMP signalling are well known, although in vivo roles of cGMP have only been recently discovered through work in genetic model organisms. The Drosophila melanogaster Malpighian (renal) tubule has been used to address the roles of cGMP in epithelial function. Here, we describe some of this work and outline recent progress in understanding the organotypic function of n...
متن کاملNO/cGMP signalling in platelets
Background NO/cGMP-signalling is important for the inhibition of platelet aggregation. The cGMP dependent protein kinase I plays thereby the key role in the signal cascade of NO/ cGMP. It is already known that the interaction of the cGKI substrate IRAG with the IP3RI is essential for the NO/ cGMP dependent inhibition of platelet aggregation. To specify the relevance of IRAG signalling for plate...
