Earl Wilbur Sutherland Jr. discovered cyclic AMP (cAMP) as a second messenger that allows hormones like epinephrine to trigger physiological responses in cells. cAMP is produced from ATP by adenylate cyclase in response to hormone binding and activates protein kinase A. Protein kinase A then phosphorylates other proteins to initiate downstream cellular effects. The actions of cAMP are terminated by phosphodiesterase breaking it down and by dephosphorylation of proteins. cAMP mediates many important processes like glycogen breakdown and gene transcription.
GPCRs are the most dynamic and most abundant all the receptors. The G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily comprises the largest and most diverse group of proteins in mammals. GPCRs are responsible for every aspect of human biology from vision, taste, sense of smell, sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous functions, metabolism, and immune regulation to reproduction. GPCRs interact with a number of ligands ranging from photons, ions, amino acids, odorants, pheromones, eicosanoids, neurotransmitters, peptides, proteins, and hormones.
Nevertheless, for the majority of GPCRs, the identity of their natural ligands is still unknown, hence remain orphan receptors.
The simple dogma that underpins much of our current understanding of GPCRs, namely,
one GPCR gene− one GPCR protein− one functional GPCR− one G protein −one response
is showing distinct signs of wear.

This Slide gives you a idea about the subject Cellular and Molecular pharmacology where the cell signalling, secondary messengers and its intracellular signalling pathways has been celarly explained
Cell signaling / Signal Transduction / Transmembrane signaling.
It is the process by which cells communicate with their environment and respond to external stimuli.
When a signaling molecule(ligand) binds to its receptor, it alters the shape or activity of the receptor, triggering a change inside of the cell such as alteration in the activity of a gene / cell division. Thus the original Intercellular Signal is converted into an Intracellular Signal that triggers as a response.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. History
Earl Wilbur Sutherland Jr.
discovered second
messengers won the 1971
Nobel Prize in Medicine.
He saw that epinephrine
would stimulate the liver to
convert glycogen to glucose in
liver cells, but epinephrine
alone would not convert
glycogen to glucose.
He found that epinephrine
had to trigger a second
messenger, cyclic AMP for the
liver to convert glycogen to
glucose.

4. Introduction
Cyclic AMP is a cyclic nucleotide, Chemically it is a 3’5’
adenosine monophosphate.
It is synthesized in tissues from ATP under influence
of ADENYLYL CYCLASE in presence of Mg ion.
It is degraded to 5’AMP by Phosphodiesterase.
It is a Second Messenger.
5. Second messenger
Secondary messengers are
intracellular signaling molecules
released by the cell to trigger
physiological changes. it amplify
intracellular signal transduction
cascades.
e.g.- cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP,
inositol trisphosphate(IP3),
diacylglycerol(DAG), calcium.
First messengers need to be
transduced into secondary
messengers, so that the extracellular
signal may be propagated intra
cellularly.
7. Steps involve
Step1 : Binding of ligand to a specific
receptor in the cell membrane.
Step2: Activation of G-Protein: after
the formation of complex, GDP is
replaced by GTP.
Step3: Activation of enzyme
ADENYLATE CYCLASE: activated G-
protein either stimulates or inhibits the
enzyme adenylate cyclase which is
located in plasma membrane.
Step4: Formation of cAMP: when
adenylyl cyclase activated it catalyses
the formation of cAMP from cytoplasmic
ATP with Mg2+ as cofactor. Thus a
stimulatory G-protein increases the
cAMP level whereas inhibitory G protein
decreases the cAMP level.
Step5: Action of cAMP: it activates
protein kinase A. PKA then
phosphorylate other proteins which
gives rise to cascade of mechanism leads
to cell response.
8. Termination of cyclic AMP
The actions of cAMP in the cell are terminated in two
ways:
cAMP is degraded to 5’-AMP in the cell by the
cytoplasmic enzyme Phosphodiesterase(PDE).
Specific phosphatases dephosphorylates the protein
already phosphorylated by PKA.
