Cyclic ad-enosine diphosphate ribose(cADPR) is an endogenousCa2+ mobilizing nucleotide present in many cell typesand species, from plants to animals. cADPR is formedby ADP-ribosyl cyclases from nicotinamide adenine di-nucleotide. The main ADP-ribosyl cyclase in mammalsis CD38, a multi-functional enzyme and a type Ⅱ mem-brane protein. It has been shown that many extracel-lular stimuli can induce cADPR production that leadsto calcium release or influx, establishing cADPR as asecond messenger. cADPR has been linked to a widevariety of cellular processes, but the molecular mecha-nisms regarding cADPR signaling remain elusive. Theaim of this review is to summarize the CD38/cADPR/Ca2+ signaling pathway, focusing on the recent advanc-es involving the mechanism and physiological functionsof cADPR-mediated Ca2+ mobilization.展开更多
