Cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) are second messengers for numerous mammalian cell functions. The natural occurrence and synthesis of a third cyclic nucleotide (cNMP), cyclic cytidine 3',5'-monophosphate (cCMP), is a matter of controversy,
Resistance to the natriuretic action of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a hallmark of states of pathological sodium retention including congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver, and nephrotic syndrome. A variety of mechanisms including reduced delivery of filtrate to ANP-sensitive sites

Advanced age, underlying cardiovascular disease (including hypertension), and obesity are associated with a higher risk of progression to severe hypoxemia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and death in COVID-19-infected patients. African Americans have a higher degree of COVID-19
BACKGROUND
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) increases lung vascular permeability within minutes by activation of acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) and a subsequent nitric oxide (NO)-inhibitable and Ca(2+)-dependent loss in barrier function.
OBJECTIVE
To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying this
Neutrophils act as first-line-of-defense cells and the reduction of their functional activity contributes to the high susceptibility to and severity of infections in diabetes mellitus. Clinical investigations in diabetic patients and experimental studies in diabetic rats and mice clearly
