Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a second messenger involved in cell signaling that regulates variousl physiological and pathological processes. cAMP regulates the transcription of target genes by activating proteinl kinase A (PKA) and the transcription factor cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB). CRE is the target of many extracellular and intracellular signaling pathways, including cAMP, calcium,l GPCR (G-protein coupled receptors), and neurotrophins. The CAMP/PKA/CREB signaling pathway has both tumor-suppressive and tumor-promoting effects in cancer cells and can be useful in studying cancer signaling pathways.CALCR encodes a high affinity receptor for the peptide hormone calcitonin and belongs to a subfamily of seven transmembrane-spanning G protein-coupled receptors. The encoded protein is involved in maintaining calcium homeostasis and in regulating osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with variations in bone mineral density and onset of osteoporosis.RAMP1 is a member of the RAMP family of single-transmembrane-domain proteins, called receptor (calcitonin) activity modifying proteins (RAMPs).The RAMP1 protein is involved in the terminal glycosylation, maturation, and presentation of the CGRP receptor to the cell surface.
