Structure, Function, and Pharmaceutical Ligands of 5-Hydroxytryptamine 2B Receptor

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Since the first characterization of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2B receptor (5-HT2BR) in 1992, significant progress has been made in 5-HT2BR research. Herein, we summarize the biological function, structure, and small-molecule pharmaceutical ligands of the 5-

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 ...

Opposite Roles of Wnt7a and Sfrp1 in Modulating Proper Development of Neural Progenitors in the Mouse Cerebral Cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
The Wingless (Wnt)-mediated signals are involved in many important aspects of development of the mammalian cerebral cortex. How Wnts interact with their modulators in cortical development is still unclear.

Antagonists to the rescue [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2000
Errors in protein folding represent the underlying basis for a large number of genetically inherited diseases. Point mutations, deletions, and in some cases, expanded sequences of amino acids give rise to protein products that fail to reach their native folded state.

Filling the Gaps in Antagonist CCR5 Binding, a Retrospective and Perspective Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The large number of pathologies that position CCR5 as a central molecular determinant substantiates the studies aimed at understanding receptor-ligand interactions, as well as the development of compounds that efficiently block this receptor.

Selectivity and specificity of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor ligands: caveats and critical thinking in characterizing receptor-mediated effects

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2011
Receptors for sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) have been identified only recently. Their medicinal chemistry is therefore still in its infancy, and few selective agonists or antagonists are available. Furthermore, the selectivity of S1P receptor agonists or

Insight into a Successful Development of Biocontrol Agents: Production, Formulation, Packaging, and Shelf Life as Key Aspects

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2022
Biocontrol agents (BCAs) have been proposed and studied over recent decades as a suitable alternative to diminish or substitute synthetic fungicides used to control pre- and postharvest diseases.

ACTH Antagonists [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1974
Structural modifications within the active site of the ACTH molecule have produced analogs that inhibit the hormone sensitive adenylate cyclase system of bovine adrenal cortical plasma membranes. It is demonstrated that the tryptophan residue of the ACTH molecule is essential for stimulation of the enzyme.
