Abstract

There exists an impressive body of information on the apparently ubiquitous pres­ ence of cyclic AMP, and possibly cyclic GMP,in living organisms and their univer­ sal function as versatile regulatory agents. Originally discovered as the intracellular honnones in animals (58), cyclic AMP has since been implicated in a variety of nonendocrine functions (26, SO, 59) and has been recognized as a component of the intricate signaling system which mediates the cell's responses to environmental changes. In lower organisms cyclic lite repression" in E. of the slime mold Tomkins mediator ("second messenger") of the action of many peptide and catecholamine AMP seems to be primarily involved in the "alleviation of cellular hunger" (11), as is indicated by its mediation of the "catabo­ communication, which is based on the presumed primary function of cyclic (69) has presented a general hypothesis on the origin of intercellular AMP coli (57) and of the aggregation of nutrient-deprived amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum (38).
