cytosolic receptor

Cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) is an effective calcium mobilization second messenger synthesized from NAD+ by ADP-ribosyl cyclase. It mainly increases cytosolic calcium through Ryanodine receptor-mediated endoplasmic reticulum release and extracellular influx via the opening of TRPM2 channels.

Cyclic ADP-ribose ammonium (cADPR ammonium) is a potent calcium mobilization second messenger synthesized from NAD+ by ADP-ribosyl cyclase. It raises cytosolic calcium levels through Ryanodine receptor-mediated release from the endoplasmic reticulum and facilitates extracellular influx via TRPM2 channels [1][2][3].

Variabilin, a novel inhibitor of human platelet aggregation, it is a potent RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp)-containing antagonist of the fibrinogen receptor glycoprotein IIb-IIIa (GPIIb-IIIa; αIIbβ3) and the vitronectin receptor αvβ3.Variabilin is also an antimicrobial furanosesterterpene. Variabilin is an inhibitor of human secretory and cytosolic phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activities that controls eicosanoid production in vitro and in vivo, inhibits neutrophil degranulation and superoxide generation in vitro and shows anti-inflammatory activity after topical or p.o. administration to mice.
