LXRs, SHP, and FXR in Prostate Cancer: Enemies or Ménage à Quatre With AR? [PDF]
, 2018 Androgens and androgen receptor (AR, NR3C4) clearly play a crucial role in prostate cancer progression. Besides, the link between metabolic disorders and the risk of developing a prostate cancer has been emerging these last years.

Central Role of the EGF Receptor in Neurometabolic Aging
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2012 A strong connection between neuronal and metabolic health has been revealed in recent years. It appears that both normal and pathophysiological aging, as well as neurodegenerative disorders, are all profoundly influenced by this “neurometabolic ...

Structural insights into the ligand binding and Gi coupling of serotonin receptor 5-HT5A
Cell Discovery, 2022 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 5A (5-HT5A) belongs to the 5-HT receptor family and signals through the Gi/o protein. It is involved in nervous system regulation and an attractive target for the treatment of psychosis, depression, schizophrenia, and ...

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor imaging for localization of insulinomas [PDF]
, 2009 The surgical removal of insulinomas is hampered by difficulties to localize it using conventional radiological procedures. Recently these tumors were shown to exhibit a very high density of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors (GLP-1R) in vitro that may be ...

Single-molecule analysis of steroid receptor and cofactor action in living cells
Nature Communications, 2017 Transcription factors (TFs) are thought to regulate gene expression by stably binding to target DNA elements. Here, the authors use single-molecule tracking to analyse the dynamic behaviour of steroid receptors TFs and show that most specific ...
