The G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily consists of the most common targets of approved drugs. Targeting GPCRs offers appealing avenues for therapeutic development. Antibodies and their fragments, such as single‐domain antibodies (VHHs or nanobodies), have emerged as useful alternatives to small molecule pharmacophores as building blocks in ...

Neurotensin colocalizes with orexin in LHA neurons.
A, Immunostaining of neurotensin in a coronal section of mouse brain. Dense staining of neurotensin-like immunoreactivity is observed in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA), lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) and zona incerta (ZI).

Chewing gum did not improve early bowel recovery after lumbar fusion. ABSTRACT Objective Given the paucity of prospective randomized evidence on chewing gum for postoperative bowel recovery in elderly spinal fusion patients, this study aimed to assess the efficacy of chewing gum in improving bowel function recovery in the elderly after posterior lumbar

Serum neurotensin in human pancreatic cancer
The role of neurotensin as a physiologic regulator of exocrine pancreatic secretion is known, but the hormone has only recently been recognized as important mitogen in vitro for human cancer cells.

The behavioral responses exerted by spinal administration of the opioid-neurotensin hybrid peptide, PK23, were studied in adult male rats. The antinociceptive effect upon exposure to a thermal stimulus, as well as tolerance development, was assessed in ...

Intrinsic conformational equilibria position arrestin‐2 for activation
Abstract Arrestins regulate G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling by undergoing large‐scale conformational rearrangements, yet the solution‐state equilibria that underlie arrestin pre‐activation remain poorly defined. While prior studies identified slow conformational exchange at the interdomain interface, these minor states could not be ...

Neurotensin, a biologically active peptide
Neurotensin, a tridecapeptide appears to be localized in various parts of the brain and gut. A high affinity binding component of neurotensin to brain membranes, synaptosomes and mast cells has been reported.
