ACTH Antagonists [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2016
Adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) acts via a highly selective receptor that is a member of the melanocortin receptor subfamily of type 1 G protein-coupled receptors. The ACTH receptor, also known as the melanocortin 2 receptor (MC2R), is unusual in that it is absolutely dependent on a small accessory protein, melanocortin receptor accessory protein (MRAP) for

Antagonistic games [PDF]

open access: yesMathématiques et sciences humaines, 2002
Certaines propriétés des jeux à somme nulle sont étendues à différentes classes de jeux à deux joueurs à somme non nulle. Les définitions de ces classes sont basées sur différentes notions d'antagonisme. La notion de jeux presque strictement compétitifs, introduite par Aumann en 1961, est généralisée en gardant l'unicité du paiement d'équilibre de Nash.

GnRH antagonists

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 2004
Ovarian stimulation is an important step in the success rate of in vitro fertilization (IVF) allowing multiple follicular growth, several oocytes and consequently more embryos. The combination of GnRH-antagonists (GnRH-ant) and gonadotrophins is now available for clinical use and represent a valid alternative to classical protocol with GnRH agonist ...

Losartan, an AT1 Antagonist, Prevents Aortic Aneurysm in a Mouse Model of Marfan Syndrome

open access: yesScience, 2006
Aortic aneurysm and dissection are manifestations of Marfan syndrome (MFS), a disorder caused by mutations in the gene that encodes fibrillin-1. Selected manifestations of MFS reflect excessive signaling by the transforming growth factor–β (TGF-β) family
