Abstract

Calcium and guanosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) are second messenger molecules that regulate opposing physiological functions, reflected in the reciprocal regulation of their intracellular concentrations, in many systems. Indeed, cGMP and Ca2+ constitute discrete points of integration between multiple cell signaling cascades in both convergent and parallel pathways. This chapter describes the molecular mechanisms regulating intracellular Ca2+ and cGMP, and their integration in specific cellular responses.
