Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009 Arginine vasopressin (AVP) receptors have been classified into V1a, V1b, and V2 subtypes. Recent studies have demonstrated the involvement of AVP in anti-nociception and in morphine-induced anti-nociception.

Toward molecular neuroeconomics of obesity [PDF]
arXiv, 2011 Because obesity is a risk factor for many serious illnesses such as diabetes, better understandings of obesity and eating disorders have been attracting attention in neurobiology, psychiatry, and neuroeconomics. This paper presents future study directions by unifying (i) economic theory of addiction and obesity (Becker and Murphy, 1988; Levy 2002 ...

Pituitary gonadotropin‐releasing hormone II as a possible mediator of positive estrogen feedback
Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 37, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract It has previously been shown that rhesus macaques express two forms of gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GNRH1 and GNRH2) in the hypothalamus and that both forms can stimulate the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) in vivo. However, while much has been published about the role of GNRH1 in reproduction, very little is known about the ...

Continuum gating current models computed with consistent interactions [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The action potential signal of nerve and muscle is produced by voltage sensitive channels that include a specialized device to sense voltage. Gating currents of the voltage sensor are now known to depend on the back-and-forth movements of positively charged arginines through the hydrophobic plug of a voltage sensor domain.

The homeostasis of β‐alanine is key for Arabidopsis reproductive growth and development
The Plant Journal, Volume 122, Issue 1, April 2025.SUMMARY β‐Alanine, an abundant non‐proteinogenic amino acid, acts as a precursor for coenzyme A and plays a role in various stress responses. However, a comprehensive understanding of its metabolism in plants remains incomplete. Previous metabolic genome‐wide association studies (mGWAS) identified ALANINE:GLYOXYLATE AMINOTRANSFERASE2 (AGT2, AT4G39660 ...

Flipping Out: Role of Arginine in Hydrophobic Interactions and Biological Formulation Design [PDF]
arXivArginine has been a mainstay in biological formulation development for decades. To date, the way arginine modulates protein stability has been widely studied and debated. Here, we employed a hydrophobic polymer to decouple hydrophobic effects from other interactions relevant to protein folding.
