Novel single chain cAMP sensors for receptor-induced signal propagation.

TLDR
The development of novel fluorescent indicators for cAMP based on the cAMP-binding domains of Epac and PKA, comprised of only a single binding site lacking cooperativity, catalytic properties, and interactions with other proteins, allow us to easily image free intracellular cAMP and rapid signaling events.

During autophagy mitochondria elongate, are spared from degradation and sustain cell viability

TL;DR: It is shown that mitochondrial morphology determines the cellular response to macroautophagy, and regulated changes in mitochondrial morphology determine the fate of the cell during autophagic degradation.

Fluorescent Proteins and Their Applications in Imaging Living Cells and Tissues

TL;DR: The structure, evolution, and function of GFP-like proteins and their numerous applications for in vivo imaging are focused on, with particular attention to recent techniques.

β2-Adrenergic Receptor Redistribution in Heart Failure Changes cAMP Compartmentation

TL;DR: In cardiomyocytes from healthy adult rats and mice, spatially confined β2AR-induced cAMP signals are localized exclusively to the deep transverse tubules, whereas functional β1ARs are distributed across the entire cell surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Persistent cAMP-signals triggered by internalized G-protein-coupled receptors.

TL;DR: Real-time monitoring of G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling in native cells suggests that the receptor for thyroid stimulating hormone remains active after internalization, challenging the current model for GPCR signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sustained cyclic AMP production by parathyroid hormone receptor endocytosis

TL;DR: Analyzing the ligand response by measuring the kinetics of activation and deactivation for each individual reaction step along the PTHR signaling cascade found that during the time frame of G protein coupling and cAMP production, PTHrP action was restricted to the cell surface, whereas PTH(1-34) had moved to internalized compartments where it remained associated with the P THR and Galpha(s), potentially as a persistent and active ternary complex.

Discrete microdomains with high concentration of cAMP in stimulated rat neonatal cardiac myocytes.

TL;DR: In neonatal rat cardiac myocytes, β-adrenergic stimulation generates multiple microdomains with increased concentration of cAMP in correspondence with the region of the transverse tubule/junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane, and such gradients specifically activate a subset of protein kinase A molecules anchored in proximity to the T tubule.

Cyclic nucleotide research — still expanding after half a century

TL;DR: Research into second messengers has provided a framework for understanding transmembrane signal transduction, receptor–effector coupling, protein-kinase cascades and downregulation of drug responsiveness.

Localized Effects of cAMP Mediated by Distinct Routes of Protein Kinase A

TL;DR: Targeting of PKA and integration of a wide repertoire of proteins involved in signal transduction into complex signal networks further increase the specificity required for the precise regulation of numerous cellular and physiological processes.
