Functional Effects of Prebiotic Fructans in Colon Cancer and Calcium Metabolism in Animal Models

BioMed Research International, 2017
Inulin-type fructans are polymers of fructose molecules and are known for their capacity to enhance absorption of calcium and magnesium, to modulate gut microbiota and energy metabolism, and to improve glycemia.

Structural Determinants in the Calcitonin Receptor-Like Receptor (Crlr) Important for Cgrp and Adrenomedullin (Am) Receptor Function of Crlr/Receptor-Activity-Modifying Protein (Ramp) 1 and Crlr/Ramp2 Heterodimers

The Scientific World Journal, 2001
Cell surface protein cross-linking, coimmmunoprecipitation, and confocal microscopy identified CRLR/RAMP1-, CRLR/RAMP2-, and calcitonin receptor isotype 2 (CTR2)/RAMP1 heterodimers as CGRP-, AM-, and CGRP/amylin receptors, linked to cAMP production ...
