Transcriptome Profiling of Anhidrotic Eccrine Sweat Glands Reveals that Olfactory Receptors on Eccrine Sweat Glands Regulate Perspiration in a Ligand-Dependent Manner

JID Innovations, 2023
Sweat maintains systemic homeostasis in humans. Although sweating disorders may cause multifaceted health problems, therapeutic options for sweat disorders have not yet been established. To gain new insight into the mechanism underlying the regulation of

Comparative Evaluation of Secreted Plant Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase 1 (CCD1) Enzymes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Fermentation, 2022
Enabling technologies in synthetic biology now present the opportunity to engineer wine yeast for enhanced novel aromas. In doing so, improved wine products will increase the desirability of wine for the consumer and add value to the winemaker.

Gallein, a Gβγ subunit signalling inhibitor, inhibits metastatic spread of tumour cells expressing OR51E2 and exposed to its odorant ligand

BMC Research Notes, 2017
Objective We previously reported that the olfactory receptor OR51E2, overexpressed in LNCaP prostate cancer cells, promotes cell invasiveness upon stimulation of its agonist β-ionone, and this phenomenon increases metastatic spread.

Target-Guided Isolation of Progenitors of 1,1,6-Trimethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalene (TDN) from Riesling Wine by High-Performance Countercurrent Chromatography

Molecules, 2022
High-performance countercurrent chromatography (HPCCC) was used for the target-guided isolation of precursors of 1,1,6-trimethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalene (TDN) from Riesling wine. In separated HPCCC fractions of an Amberlite® XAD®-2 extract obtained from a

The olfactory receptor OR51E2 activates ERK1/2 through the Golgi-localized Gβγ-PI3Kγ-ARF1 pathway in prostate cancer cells

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
The olfactory receptor OR51E2 is ectopically expressed in prostate tissues and regulates prostate cancer progression, but its function and regulation in oncogenic mitogen-activate protein kinase (MAPK) activation are poorly defined.
