“…cADPR is a calcium mobilizing agent that potentiates calcium-induced calcium release in sea urchin egg homogenate (Clapper et al, 1987;Lee, 1993;Lee et al, 1989), and in other cell types, including T-lymphocytes (Guse et al, 1999), cardiac myocytes (Rakovic et al, 1996), and neurons (Currie et al, 1992;Higashida et al, 2001). Studies using pharmacological approaches or in vitro reconstitution of channels have shown that cADPR modulates intracellular calcium release through ryanodine receptor channels (RyRs) but not inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP 3 Rs) (Clapper et al, 1987;Dargie et al, 1990;Meszaros et al, 1993). Moreover, both cADPR and ADPR activate TRPM2, a calcium permeable non-specific cation channel located predominantly on the plasma membrane (Kolisek et al, 2005;Yu et al, 2019).…”
