Being cut off in traffic, giving a presentation or missing a meal can all trigger a suite of physiological changes that allow the body to react swiftly to stress or starvation. Critical to this "fight ...

Since the discovery in 1957 that cyclic AMP acts as a second messenger for the hormone adrenaline, interest in this molecule and its companion, cyclic GMP, has grown. Over a period of nearly 50 ...

He and post-doctoral chemist Joshua Woodward discovered the small molecule, cyclic-di-AMP, by studying mutant Listeria that, when infecting immune cells called macrophages, overproduce interferon.

When dopamine and serotonin, brain chemicals involved in mood regulation, act at brain cells, a "wave" of the signaling molecule cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) is generated.

In ADPKD cells, cysts develop and grow because they express higher than normal levels of a 'messenger molecule' called cyclic AMP (or cAMP). One of the many known functions of cAMP is to tell ...

In the study, published March 27 in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology ... clusters of atoms within the binding site. "Cyclic AMP can access a more strongly bound state; that is, it stays ...

Earl W. Sutherland Jr., former professor and chair of the Department of Pharmacology, led the discovery of cyclic AMP, a cellular signaling molecule responsible for many metabolic processes. He won ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Cyclic molecules are used in a wide range of applications, including molecular sensing, because they can incorporate specific molecules of interest into their inner cavities.
