Regular visitors at one site (experimental) in a linear series of sites normally recruit inexperienced hive mates to or near that site. If bees from a second hive were allowed to forage at both control sites, however, recruits from the experimental hive, while orienting to these sites, exhibited no evidence of having used any distance information they might have received before leaving their parent hive.

Transmembrane proteins, such as G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and integrins, activate intracellular signaling pathways through interactions with downstream binding partners. Woodside discusses two examples in which GPCRs and integrins interact in a noncompeting manner with more than one partner. The specific GPCR described is the thrombin receptor, in experiments where G protein peptides selectively block signaling through a particular G protein that does not appear to inhibit coupling of the receptor to other G proteins. The second system described is the alphaIIbbeta3 integrin and its activation of the nonreceptor tyrosine kinase Syk. Syk appeared capable of interacting with both the integrin and intracellular domains of immune response receptors, because binding of Syk to the integrin was not inhibited by peptides based on the Syk binding site in immune response receptors. Thus, multiple, noncompeting binding partners add to the complexity of signal transduction outputs from a single receptor complex.
Dynamic calcium signaling is a well-established precept in biology. Different cell types exhibit spontaneous as well as stimulus-triggered transient changes in the concentration of intracellular calcium. Does this behavior extend to other second messengers? Optical dissection of various signal transduction pathways with fluorescent reporter molecules that enable visualization of changes in concentration of other second messengers is well under way. Recent research using technologically refined probes provides improved temporal and spatial resolution of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) dynamics to generate insights into the bidirectional interplay between intracellular fluctuations of cAMP and calcium. cAMP oscillations are generated in response to hormones, and cells can recognize and differentially respond to transient versus sustained changes in this second messenger. Second messenger reporters are now available to track multiple players and so provide a dynamic picture of signaling networks.
