Exploring the kinetic selectivity of drugs targeting the β1‐adrenoceptor
Pharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2022 In this study, we report the β1‐adrenoceptor binding kinetics of several clinically relevant β1/2‐adrenoceptor (β1/2AR) agonists and antagonists. [3H]‐DHA was used to label CHO‐β1AR for binding studies. The kinetics of ligand binding was assessed using a

Clinical applications of exosome membrane proteins
Precision Clinical Medicine, 2020 Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membranous particles that can mediate cell-to-cell communication and which are divided into at least three categories according to their subcellular origin and size: exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies ...

Allostery in membrane proteins [PDF]
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2020 Membrane proteins are an integral part of signal transduction. To signal, membrane proteins must interact with a variety of lipid species, effectors, and other proteins in the biological membrane leading to an immense number of possible interactions. Despite this inherent complexity, accurate control of signaling must take place.

Super-Resolution Imaging Approaches for Quantifying F-Actin in Immune Cells
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Immune cells comprise a diverse set of cells that undergo a complex array of biological processes that must be tightly regulated. A key component of cellular machinery that achieves this is the cytoskeleton.
