Interleukin-4 receptor alpha gene variants and allergic disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The interleukin-4 (IL-4) signalling cascade has been identified as a pathway potentially important in the development of asthma. Genetic variants within this signalling pathway might contribute to the risk of developing asthma in a given individual.

Causal and Synthetic Associations of Variants in the SERPINA Gene Cluster with Alpha1-antitrypsin Serum Levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Several infrequent genetic polymorphisms in the SERPINA1 gene are known to substantially reduce concentration of alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT) in the blood.

Helicobacter pylori type IV secretion apparatus exploits beta1 integrin in a novel RGD-independent manner. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Translocation of the Helicobacter pylori (Hp) cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) effector protein via the cag-Type IV Secretion System (T4SS) into host cells is a major risk factor for severe gastric diseases, including gastric cancer.

Multiple and plastic receptors mediate tonic GABAA receptor currents in the hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Persistent activation of GABAA receptors by extracellular GABA (tonic inhibition) plays a critical role in signal processing and network excitability in the brain.

Receptor for activated C kinase-1 facilitates protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation and functional modulation of GABA(A) receptors with the activation of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
GABA(A) receptors are the principal sites of fast synaptic inhibition in the brain. These receptors are hetero-pentamers that can be assembled from a number of subunit classes: alpha(1-6), beta(1-3), gamma(1-3), delta(1), epsilon, theta, and pi, but the ...

Mechanisms by which interleukin-4 suppresses inflammatory cytokine production by activated human monocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Improving understanding of how inflammatory responses by monocytes and macrophages are regulated may aid in the development of more targeted therapies for chronic inflammatory disease.

Molecular pharmacological characterisation of recombinant and native NR2B- and NR3B- containing NMDA receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
NMDA receptors are ionotropic, glutamate receptors which mediate fast excitatory transmissions within the central nervous system. They form tetrameric or pentameric heterologous complexes from seven NMDA receptor subunits NRl, NR2A-D and NR3A-B which ...

Impact of subunit positioning on GABAA receptor function

open access: yes, 2006
The major isoforms of the GABAA (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A) receptor are composed of two alpha, two beta and one gamma subunit. Thus alpha and beta subunits occur twice in the receptor pentamer.

Localization of rat glycine receptor alpha1 and alpha2 subunit transcripts in the developing auditory brainstem

open access: yes, 2001
Glycine receptors (GlyRs), aside from GABA(A) receptors, mediate fast postsynaptic inhibition in the mammalian nervous system. Spatial and temporal expression of the genes encoding ligand-binding alpha subunits (alpha1-alpha4) and the structural beta ...
