TLDR
The transcription factor CREB functions in glucose homeostasis, growth-factor-dependent cell survival, and has been implicated in learning and memory, and how is specificity achieved in these signalling pathways?
Abstract
The transcription factor CREB -- for 'cyclic AMP response element-binding protein' -- functions in glucose homeostasis, growth-factor-dependent cell survival, and has been implicated in learning and memory. CREB is phosphorylated in response to various signals, but how is specificity achieved in these signalling pathways?

Muscarinic receptor-mediated phosphorylation of cyclic AMP response element binding protein in human neuroblastoma cells.

TL;DR: In SK‐N‐SH neuroblastoma cells, treatment with the cholinergic agonist carbachol led to maximal induction of EGR1 1 h after stimulation, preceded by the phosphorylation of CREB, which peaked as early as 5 minutes after carbachols treatment.

Lyl1 interacts with CREB1 and alters expression of CREB1 target genes.

TL;DR: The ability of Lyl1 to modulate promoter responses to CREB1 suggests that it plays a role in the malignant phenotype by occupying different promoters than Tal1.

CREB Activation and Ischaemic Preconditioning

TL;DR: It is suggested that CREB phosphorylation during an ischaemic preconditioning protocol may contribute to triggering preconditionsing, while reduced phosphorylated during sustained ischaemia does not appear to be associated with cardioprotection.

Adenosine A2a receptor agonists as regulators of inflammation: pharmacology and therapeutic opportunities

TL;DR: Characterization of A2aR-induced signaling pathways will be useful for the development of novel therapeutic strategies in inflammatory/immune diseases and further studies are required to improve understanding in the ability of A 2a receptor agonists to reduce tissue damage during inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the human DYRK1A promoter and its regulation by the transcription factor E2F1

TL;DR: The identification of two alternatively spliced transcripts whose transcription is initiated from differentially regulated promoters regions indicates that the expression of the DYRK1A gene is subject to complex control mechanisms.

Cyclic AMP stimulates somatostatin gene transcription by phosphorylation of CREB at serine 133

TL;DR: Results suggest that phosphorylation of CREB may stimulate transcription by a mechanism other than by simply providing negative charge, as CREB mutants containing acidic residues in place of the Ser-133 phosphoacceptor were also transcriptionally inactive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphorylated CREB binds specifically to the nuclear protein CBP

TL;DR: It is proposed that CBP may participate in cAMP-regulated gene expression by interacting with the activated phosphorylated form of CREB, which is activated as a result of phosphorylation by protein kinase A7.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell survival promoted by the Ras-MAPK signaling pathway by transcription-dependent and -independent mechanisms.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the MAPK signaling pathway promotes cell survival by a dual mechanism comprising the posttranslational modification and inactivation of a component of the cell death machinery and the increased transcription of pro-survival genes.

Deficient long-term memory in mice with a targeted mutation of the cAMP-responsive element-binding protein

TL;DR: Consistent with models claiming a role for long-term potentiation (LTP) in memory, LTP in hippocampal slices from CREB mutants decayed to baseline 90 min after tetanic stimulation, however, paired-pulse facilitation and posttetanic potentiation are normal.

Nuclear protein CBP is a coactivator for the transcription factor CREB

TL;DR: Fluorescence anisotropy measurements are used to define the equi-librium binding parameters of the phosphoCREB:CBP interaction and report here that CBP can activate transcription through a region in its carboxy terminus.
