The therapeutic potential of allosteric ligands for free fatty acid sensitive GPCRs [PDF]
G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most historically successful therapeutic targets. Despite this success there are many important aspects of GPCR pharmacology and function that have yet to be exploited to their full therapeutic potential.

RAGE Signaling in Skeletal Biology [PDF]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and several of its ligands have been implicated in the onset and progression of pathologies associated with aging, chronic inflammation, and cellular stress. In particular, the

Control of Notch-ligand endocytosis by ligand-receptor interaction [PDF]
In Notch signaling, cell-bound ligands activate Notch receptors on juxtaposed cells, but the relationship between ligand endocytosis, ubiquitylation and ligand-receptor interaction remains poorly understood. To study the specific role of ligand-receptor interaction, we identified a missense mutant of the Notch ligand Jagged1 (Nodder, Ndr) that failed ...

Functional Studies of Sex Pheromone Receptors in Asian Corn Borer Ostrinia furnacalis
Lepidopteran insects use sex pheromones for sexual communication. Pheromone receptors expressed on peripheral olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) are critical part to detect the sex pheromones. In genus Ostrinia, several pheromone receptors were functional

Crystal engineering with 2,2':6',2"- terpyridine derivatives and their metal complexes : from simple building blocks to coordination polymers and networks [PDF]
This thesis concerns the design of ligands for use in the construction of larger supramolecular systems, with emphasis on the application of 4'-substitured 2,2',6',2''- terpyridine ligands and their iron(II) and ruthenium(II) complexes in crystal ...
