A Review of Melatonin, Its Receptors and Drugs

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Medicine, 2019
After a Turkish scientist took Nobel Prize due to his contributions to understand clock genes, melatonin, closely related to these genes, may begin to shine.

Role of the Orphan Nuclear Receptor NR4A Family in T-Cell Biology

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
The nuclear orphan receptors NR4A1, NR4A2, and NR4A3 are immediate early genes that are induced by various signals. They act as transcription factors and their activity is not regulated by ligand binding and are thus regulated via their expression levels.

Molecular pharmacokinetic determinants of anticancer kinase inhibitors in humans

open access: yesOncology Reviews, 2011
This review presents the published data regarding the molecular determinants (drug metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters and orphan nuclear receptors) of approved anticancer kinase inhibitors pharmacokinetics in humans.

Transcriptomic Analysis Shows Decreased Cortical Expression of NR4A1, NR4A2 and RXRB in Schizophrenia and Provides Evidence for Nuclear Receptor Dysregulation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Many genes are differentially expressed in the cortex of people with schizophrenia, implicating factors that control transcription more generally. Hormone nuclear receptors dimerize to coordinate context-dependent changes in gene expression.

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) and Oxidative Stress in Physiological Conditions and in Cancer

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) belong to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. Originally described as “orphan nuclear receptors”, they can bind both natural and synthetic ligands acting as agonists or antagonists.

Adopted orphans as regulators of inflammation, immunity and skeletal homeostasis

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2014
Adopted orphan nuclear receptors, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and liver X receptors (LXRs), have emerged as key regulators of inflammation and immunity and likewise control skeletal homeostasis.

Nuclear Receptor RORα/γ: Exciting Modulators in Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Under the influences of modern lifestyle, metabolic syndromes (MetS), including insulin resistance, obesity, and fatty liver, featuring a worldwide chronic disease, greatly raise the risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

Drosophila motor neuron retraction during metamorphosis is mediated by inputs from TGF-β/BMP signaling and orphan nuclear receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Larval motor neurons remodel during Drosophila neuro-muscular junction dismantling at metamorphosis. In this study, we describe the motor neuron retraction as opposed to degeneration based on the early disappearance of β-Spectrin and the continuing ...

Coactivators for the Orphan Nuclear Receptor RORα [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Endocrinology, 1999
A mutation in the nuclear orphan receptor RORalpha results in a severe impairment of cerebellar development by unknown mechanisms. We have shown previously that RORalpha contains a strong constitutive activation domain in its C terminus. We therefore searched for mammalian RORalpha coactivators using the minimal activation domain as bait in a two ...

Computer-Aided Discovery of Small Molecule Inhibitors of Transcriptional Activity of TLX (NR2E1) Nuclear Receptor

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Orphan nuclear receptor TLX (NR2E1) plays a critical role in the regulation of neural stem cells (NSC) as well as in the development of NSC-derived brain tumors.
