Cyclic ADP Ribose popularly known as cADPR is a cyclic adenine nucleotide (like cAMP) with two phosphate groups present on 5' OH of the adenosine (like ADP), further connected to another ribose at the 5' position which in turn closes the cycle by glycosidic bonding to the Nitrogen1 of the same Adenine base (whose position 9 has the glycosidic bond to the other ribose).

cADPR is a cellular messanger for calcium signaling. It is the physiological allosteric modulator of the ryanodine receptor (RyR) which stimulates calcium induced calcium release (CICR) at lower cytosolic concentrations. RyR activation with high concentration of caffeine is partly due to caffeins mimicking cADPRs binding to RyRs. Whether the action is by direct binding to RyR or indirect (through binding with FKBP12.6) is debated. Some reports suggest that cADPR binding makes FKBP12.6 which normally binds RyR2, to fall off the RYR2. [1]

cADPR is synthesized by the bifunctional ectoenzymes of the CD38 family (also includes ADP ribosyl cyclase of Aplysia and GPI anchored CD157), from NAD+. The same enzymes are also capable of hydrolyzing it to ADPR. The hydrolysis is inhibited by ATP and this the cyclip form can accumulate.
