Human Il-1 alpha induces the synthesis of kappa Ig L chains by the pre-B cell line 7OZ/3, IL-2R alpha by the human NK cell line YT, and PGE2 by human rheumatoid synovial cells. Pertussis toxin (PT) markedly inhibited all three IL-1-induced activation events. The inhibition by PT was associated with a decrease in IL-1-mediated cAMP production. PT also inhibited IL-1-stimulated cAMP production in crude membrane fractions from 7OZ/3, YT, and 3T3 fibroblasts. In addition, IL-1 stimulated GTPase activity present in the membranes IL-1-responsive cells. Furthermore, the IL-1-induced GTPase activity was sensitive to PT. PT induced the ADP-ribosylation of a 46-kDa substrate in membrane preparations from IL-1-responsive cells. Cholera toxin also induced the ADP-ribosylation of a 46-kDa substrate in the same membrane preparations. The present findings indicate that the IL-1R is linked to a PT-sensitive G protein that stimulates the activity of adenylate cyclase.

Membrane-embedded CdaA is required for efficient synthesis of second messenger cyclic di-AMP.

Cyclic di-adenylate monophosphate (cyclic di-AMP) is an important second messenger in microorganisms. Cyclic di-AMP regulates bacterial cell volume and turgor via control of potassium and compatible solute transport but is also involved in many other processes, including the activation of the metazoan innate immune response to bacterial infections. We compare the activity of full-length membrane-embedded CdaA, the enzyme that synthesizes cyclic di-AMP, with the water-soluble catalytic domain CdaA-DAC.

Women are known to have twice as much lifetime prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as men do. It has been reported that the risk genotype (CC) of a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs2267735) in the pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP-PAC1R) system is associated with PTSD risk and altered fear conditioning and fear extinction in women. Surprisingly, no previous work has studied the effect of this SNP on fear conditioning, extinction, or generalization in non-traumatized/low trauma load women.

Early weaning management followed by energy supplementation can lead to metabolic alterations in the calf that exert long-term effects on the animal's health and performance. It is believed that the main molecular basis underlying these metabolic adaptations are epigenetic mechanisms that regulate, activate, or silence genes at different stages of development and/or in response to different environmental stimuli. However, little is known about postnatal metabolic programming in .

Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) affects rodents' stress-related behaviors, such as anxiety-like behavior or fear conditioning. However, previous studies have investigated the effect of intracerebroventricular, but not hippocampal, injection of this PAC1R-selective antagonist (PACAP-6-38) on anxiety-like behavior. However, it has been reported that administration of PACAP-6-38 to the dorsal hippocampus reduces the fear response in a fear conditioning test.

Breast cancer (BC) is a global health concern with a growing prevalence. Since BC is a heterogeneous cancer, transcriptome analyzes were carried out on breast tumor tissues relative to their corresponding normal tissues in order to identify gene expression signatures and perform meta-analysis. Five expression profiling by array data sets from breast tumor tissues and non-tumor neighboring tissues were retrieved following a search in the GEO database (GSE70947, GSE70905, GSE10780, GSE29044, and GSE42568).
