Luteinizing hormone receptor knockout mouse: What has it taught us?
Abstract Luteinizing hormone (LH), along with its agonist choriongonadotropin (hCG) in humans, is the key hormone responsible for the tropic regulation of the gonadal function. LH and hCG act through their cognate receptor, the luteinizing hormone/choriongonadotropin receptor (LHCGR; more appropriately LHR in rodents lacking CG), located in the testis ...

Ligand-induced dynamics of heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptor-like kinase complexes.
BackgroundArabidopsis, 7-transmembrane Regulator of G signaling protein 1 (AtRGS1) modulates canonical G protein signaling by promoting the inactive state of heterotrimeric G protein complex on the plasma membrane.

Background and Purpose Adenosine is a potent regulator of neurotransmission and neuronal excitability, through activation of Gi coupled adenosine A1 receptors (A1Rs). Adenosine has gained interest as an anticonvulsant because of its endogenous involvement in ending seizure activity, but peripheral side effects require local application.

Summary In plants, multiple cell types contribute to immunity, but what division of labor exists among cell types when immunity is activated? We compared, at single‐cell resolution, the response of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cells during pattern‐triggered and effector‐triggered immunity (PTI/ETI), sampled at 3 and 5 h after infection with Pseudomonas ...

The identification and purification of the heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein from squid (Loligo forbesi) photoreceptors [PDF]
The principal GTP-binding protein (G-protein) from squid (Loligo forbesi) photoreceptor membranes has been identified by amino acid sequencing. The heterotrimeric protein was purified by detergent solubilization and ion-exchange chromatography. The amino acid sequence of the G-protein alpha-subunit (G-alpha) indicates that this subunit is closely ...

The GPCR Connection: Linking Alzheimer's Disease and Glioblastoma
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are biologically distinct age‐related brain disorders with opposing clinical phenotypes. AD is characterised by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline, whereas GBM is characterised by aggressive cellular proliferation and a poor prognosis.

Linking Superoxide Production and Scavenging in Plant Development
ABSTRACT Due to their strong oxidizing potential, rapid membrane permeability, and high reactivity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) play essential roles in plant development and stress responses. Superoxide (O2•‐) is a primary product of molecular oxygen reduction and a crucial source of hydrogen peroxide, representing a ROS species of substantial ...
