The cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2R) is overexpressed under pathological conditions. PET is a suitable non‐invasive imaging technique for diagnosing disease states, but requires a radiotracer that binds to CB2R with high affinity and selectivity. Currently, there is no suitable candidate routinely used in the clinics.

Recent advances on the mechanisms regulating cholangiocyte proliferation and the significance of the neuroendocrine regulation of cholangiocyte pathophysiology [PDF]
Cholangiocytes are epithelial cells lining the biliary epithelium. Cholangiocytes play several key roles in the modification of ductal bile and are also the target cells in chronic cholestatic liver diseases (i.e., cholangiopathies) such as PSC, PBC ...

Effect of GRK4 on renal gastrin receptor regulation in hypertension
Objective To investigate whether GRK4 regulates the phosphorylation and function of renal CCKBR. Methods GRK4 A142V transgenic mice were used as an animal model of enhanced GRK4 activity, and siRNA was used to silence the GRK4 gene to investigate the ...

Gastrin-17 Levels in Pre-malignancy Gastritis Lesions
Background: Gastritis is an inflammatory process on the lining of the stomach that could be caused by various factors. Untreated inflammatory processes could lead to ulcers. Gastrin hormone is released by gastrin-secreting enteroendocrine cells (G cells)

Benzochalcogenodiazoles, Synthesis, and Applications in Medicinal Chemistry and Photomedicine
Benzochalcogenodiazoles (BXD) including benzoxadiazoles, benzothiadiazoles, and benzoselenadiazoles are initially mainly designed for optoelectronic materials as electron‐deficient cores. Nevertheless, they are now extending their application to biology.

Complete tyrosine O-sulfation of gastrin in adult and neonatal cat pancreas [PDF]
We have found gastrin in both the adult and neonatal cat pancreas. In contrast with the main production sites, antrum and duodenum, gastrin in the pancreas occurs in a single molecular form, tyrosine O-sulfated gastrin-17.

The Development and Challenges of PET/MRI Dual‐Modality Imaging Probes—An Update
ABSTRACT The integration of Positron emission tomography (PET) with Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combines the functional imaging capabilities of PET with the high‐resolution anatomical detail of MRI, creating a synergistic platform for advanced diagnostic imaging and image‐guided therapies. Central to the success of this dual‐modality system is the

Distinct roles of NMB and GRP in itch transmission [PDF]
A key question in our understanding of itch coding mechanisms is whether itch is relayed by dedicated molecular and neuronal pathways. Previous studies suggested that gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) is an itch-specific neurotransmitter. Neuromedin B (NMB)
