Stimulation of Adenosine 3',5'-Monophosphate Hydrolysis by Guanosine 3',5'-Monophosphate

Adenosine Triphosphate : Guanosine Monophosphate Phosphotransferase

Several laboratories have reported studies on individual enzymes that belong to the general class of adenosine triphosphate : nucleoside monophosphate phosphotransferases (EC 2.7.4.4), commonly termed nucleoside monophosphate kinases (l-7). Studies with partially purified enzyme preparations have indicated that a variety of nucleoside monophosphates can serve as alternative substrates for nucle...

Enthalpy of hydrolysis of the 3' bond of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate and guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate.

Urinary excretion of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate and cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate in malignancy.

The urinary excretion of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP), corrected for urinary creatinine, was determined in 177 patients with primary or metastatic tumours and in 149 normal subjects. In 26 patients with malignancy and in 10 control subjects the excretion of cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) was also evaluated. The urinary cAMP/Cr ratio in human neoplasms of epithelial o...

Guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate and adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate content of human umbilical artery.

Human umbilical arteries are unique vessels in that they close quickly and completely at birth. It has been suggested that cyclic uanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) in relaxation. This hypothesis has been evaluated in term gestational human umbilical artery segments incubated at 37 degrees C and in room air. (a) The basal cGMP content (1 pmol/mg protein) of artery segments incubated in room ai...

Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate

Since we have previously shown a direct inhibitory effect of platelet-activating factor (PAF) on Cl reabsorption in the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (TAL), the aim of this study was to extend this effect to the whole TAL and to further investigate the signaling pathway involved. In microperfused cortical TALs, PAF significantly decreased Cl reabsorption by 50.3±6.5%. On the on...
