Organization and Ca2+ Regulation of Adenylyl Cyclases in cAMP Microdomains
TLDR
The regulation of many of the ACs by the ubiquitous second messenger Ca(2+) provides an overarching mechanism for integrating the activities of these two major signaling systems, and cAMP will exhibit distinct kinetics in discrete cellular domains.Abstract:
The adenylyl cyclases are variously regulated by G protein subunits, a number of serine/threonine and tyrosine protein kinases, and Ca2+. In some physiological situations, this regulation can be re...read more

A Coupled SYSTEM of Intracellular Ca2+ Clocks and Surface Membrane Voltage Clocks Controls the Timekeeping Mechanism of the Heart’s Pacemaker
TL;DR: Evidence is examined that forms the basis of this coupled-clock system concept in cardiac SANCs, where G protein-coupled receptors signaling creates pacemaker flexibility, ie, effects changes in the rhythmic action potential firing rate, by impacting on these very same factors that regulate robust basal coupled- clock system function.

Caveolae as Organizers of Pharmacologically Relevant Signal Transduction Molecules
TL;DR: The role of Caveolae/caveolin in cardiac and pulmonary pathophysiology, pharmacologic implications of caveolar localization of signaling molecules, and the possibility that caveolae might serve as a therapeutic target are reviewed.

Underpinning compartmentalised cAMP signalling through targeted cAMP breakdown
TL;DR: Genes for these important regulatory enzymes are linked to schizophrenia, stroke and asthma, thus indicating the therapeutic potential that selective inhibitors could have as anti-inflammatory, anti-depressant and cognitive enhancer agents.

Proton fluxes associated with the Ca pump in human red blood cells
TL;DR: Results are consistent with a model in which the Ca pump in intact red blood cells mediates Ca2+/phi H+ exchange at low pHout, and the rates of the two processes are less than or equal to 4-fold different.

Lowered responsiveness of the catalyst of adenylyl cyclase to stimulation by GS in heterologous desensitization: a role for adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate-dependent phosphorylation.
TL;DR: Data indicate that one component of hormone-induced desensitization of the adenylyl cyclase system can be at the level of the catalyst, where PKA-mediated phosphorylation could result in lowered responsiveness.

β2-Adrenergic receptor signaling complexes in cardiomyocyte caveolae/lipid rafts
TL;DR: This chapter summarizes recent studies that focus on membrane microdomains as sites that differentially localizing individual beta-AR subtypes as well as the downstream signaling machinery that generates, propagates, and downregulates the cAMP-protein kinase A signaling pathway.

Nuclear targeting of aequorin. A new approach for measuring nuclear Ca2+ concentration in intact cells.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the measurement of nuclear Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]n) with targeted recombinant aequorin, showing that the nuclear membrane does not represent a major barrier to the diffusion of Ca 2+ ions, and that the nucleus does not regulate its [Ca 2+] independently from the cytosol.

TL;DR: Chimeras of the PMCA and endoplasmic reticulum (SERCA) pumps have revealed the presence of a strong signal for ER retention in the first 45 residues of the SERCA pump.
