Submission guidelines are essential instructions provided by publishers or organizations to ensure consistency, quality, and adherence to specific standards in submitted works. They help streamline the review and publication process by detailing formatting, content requirements, and ethical considerations for authors or contributors.
Relevant Fields:
Concept
Signal transduction is the process by which a cell converts an extracellular signal into a functional response, involving a series of molecular events typically initiated by the binding of a signaling molecule to a receptor. This process is crucial for cells to respond to their environment, regulate cellular activities, and maintain homeostasis.
Concept
The second messenger system is a crucial component of cellular signal transduction where extracellular signals are converted into intracellular actions through the use of small molecules. These systems amplify the signal and enable a wide range of cellular responses, ensuring precise control over physiological processes.
Concept
Protein kinase A (PKA) is a critical enzyme that regulates various cellular processes by phosphorylating target proteins in response to increased levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP). It plays a pivotal role in signal transduction pathways, influencing metabolism, gene expression, and cell cycle progression.
Concept
Concept
Concept
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a crucial role in signal transduction by activating intracellular G proteins in response to extracellular stimuli. They are involved in numerous physiological processes and are a major target for drug development, with approximately 34% of all modern medicinal drugs targeting these receptors.
Concept
Cellular homeostasis refers to the processes by which cells maintain a stable internal environment, crucial for optimal function and survival. It involves a dynamic balance of inputs and outputs, regulating factors such as pH, ion concentration, and nutrient levels to adapt to changes both inside and outside the cell.
Concept
Metabolic regulation is the process by which cells control the chemical reactions necessary for life, ensuring energy production and biomolecule synthesis are balanced to meet cellular demands. It involves complex interactions between enzymes, hormones, and signaling pathways to adapt to changes in the internal and external environment.
Concept
Gene transcription is the process by which the information in a gene's DNA sequence is copied into messenger RNA (mRNA), which then serves as a template for protein synthesis during translation. This process is tightly regulated to ensure that genes are expressed at the right time and in the right amount, crucial for proper cellular function and organismal development.
Concept
Ion channels are specialized proteins embedded in cell membranes that regulate the flow of ions across the membrane, crucial for a variety of physiological processes including nerve impulse transmission and muscle contraction. They can be gated by voltage, ligands, or mechanical forces, allowing cells to respond dynamically to changes in their environment.
Concept
Secondary messengers are intracellular signaling molecules released by the cell in response to exposure to extracellular signaling molecules, known as first messengers. They play a crucial role in amplifying the signal and initiating a cascade of cellular responses, ultimately leading to physiological changes.
Concept
D1-like receptors are a class of dopamine receptors that include D1 and D5 subtypes, which are primarily involved in modulating neurotransmission and are linked to cognitive, emotional, and motor functions. These receptors activate adenylate cyclase via G-proteins, leading to increased cyclic AMP levels, and are significant targets for drugs treating disorders like schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease.
Concept
Second messenger systems are intracellular signaling pathways that involve the use of small molecules to relay signals from receptors on the cell surface to target molecules inside the cell, amplifying the signal and eliciting a physiological response. These systems play a crucial role in various cellular processes, including metabolism, cell growth, and neurotransmission, by translating external signals into appropriate cellular actions.
Concept
Second messengers are intracellular signaling molecules released by the cell in response to exposure to extracellular signaling molecules, known as first messengers. They play a crucial role in amplifying the strength of the signal and facilitating the cellular response to various stimuli, including hormones and neurotransmitters.
