IL-1α and TNF-α Down-Regulate CRH Receptor-2 mRNA Expression in the Mouse Heart [PDF]
Two receptors (CRH receptor type 1 and CRH receptor type 2) have been identified for the stress-induced neuropeptide, CRH and related peptides, urocortin, and urocortin II.

Central Role of the EGF Receptor in Neurometabolic Aging
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 ...

Distinct agonist regulation of muscarinic acetylcholine M2-M3 heteromers and their corresponding homomers [PDF]
Each subtype of the muscarinic receptor family of G protein-coupled receptors is activated by similar concentrations of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine or closely related synthetic analogs such as carbachol. However, pharmacological selectivity can be

The cytokines IL-1β and IL-6 mediate the systemic acute phase response (APR). Here, the authors provide evidence that these cytokines lead to both synergistic and antagonistic gene expression during APR; synergistic induction occurs by assisted loading ...

Structural insights into the ligand binding and Gi coupling of serotonin receptor 5-HT5A
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 ...

Expression of the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor in multiple human tissues during fetal life and early infancy [PDF]
The insulin like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate (IGF-II/M6P) receptor has been detected in many cells and tissues. In the rat, there is a dramatic developmental regulation of IGF-II/M6P receptor expression, the receptor being high in fetal and ...

Cryo-EM structure of the human histamine H1 receptor/Gq complex
Histamine receptors are effective targets for allergy treatments and antihistamines are the first choice of many allergic disorders, but the exact mechanism of agonist binding and receptor activation remain unknown.

Regulation of Neuromodulator Receptor Efficacy - Implications for Whole-Neuron and Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]
Membrane receptors for neuromodulators (NM) are highly regulated in their distribution and efficacy - a phenomenon which influences the individual cell's response to central signals of NM release.

Single-molecule analysis of steroid receptor and cofactor action in living cells
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 ...
