Spotlight on Nociceptin/Orphanin FQ Receptor in the Treatment of Pain
In our society today, pain has become a main source of strain on most individuals. It is crucial to develop novel treatments against pain while focusing on decreasing their adverse effects. Throughout the extent of development for new pain therapies, 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 ...

The complete family of epidermal growth factor receptors and their ligands are co-ordinately expressed in breast cancer [PDF]
The levels of expression of the four receptors and eleven ligands composing the Epidermal Growth Factor family were measured using immunohistochemical staining in one hundred cases of breast cancer. All of the family were expressed to some degree in some

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

Translocator protein in the rise and fall of central nervous system neurons
Translocator protein (TSPO), a 18 kDa protein found in the outer mitochondrial membrane, has historically been associated with the transport of cholesterol in highly steroidogenic tissues though it is found in all cells throughout the mammalian body ...

Novel olfactory ligands via terpene synthases [PDF]
A synthetic biology approach to the rational design of analogues of olfactory ligands by providing unnatural substrates for the enzyme synthesising (S)-germacrene D, an olfactory ligand acting as a plant derived insect repellent, to produce novel ligands

Well defined difluorogold( iii ) complexes supported by N-ligands [PDF]
Stable difluorogold(iii) complexes can be easily synthesized either via oxidation of N-ligated cationic Au(i) precursors using XeF or from tricationic Au(iii) precursors by displacement of the N-ligands using fluoride from economical KF.

Chloride ligands on DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters [PDF]
DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters (AgN-DNAs) are known to have one or two DNA oligomer ligands per nanocluster. Here, we present the first evidence that AgN-DNA species can possess additional chloride ligands that lead to increased stability in ...
