Harmonic oscillator model of the insulin and IGF1 receptors’ allosteric binding and activation
Molecular Systems Biology, 2009 The insulin and insulin‐like growth factor 1 receptors activate overlapping signalling pathways that are critical for growth, metabolism, survival and longevity.

The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2007 Lipoxins (LXs) represent a class of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites that carry potent immunoregulatory and anti-inflammatory properties, LXA4and LXB4being the main components of this series. LXs are generated by cooperation between 5-lipoxygenase (LO) and 12- or 15-LO during cell-cell interactions or by single cell types. LX epimers at carbon 15, the

Large number of receptors may reduce cellular response time variation [PDF]
Physical biology 10 (3), 035008, 2013, 2012 Cells often have tens of thousands of receptors, even though only a few activated receptors can trigger full cellular responses. Reasons for the overabundance of receptors remain unclear. We suggest that, in certain conditions, the large number of receptors results in a competition among receptors to be the first to activate the cell.

IL-1α and TNF-α Down-Regulate CRH Receptor-2 mRNA Expression in the Mouse Heart [PDF]
, 2001 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.

Expression of the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor in multiple human tissues during fetal life and early infancy [PDF]
, 1992 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 ...

The role of ECL2 in CGRP receptor activation: a combined modelling and experimental approach [PDF]
, 2013 The calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor is a complex of a calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CLR), which is a family B G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) and receptor activity modifying protein 1.

Glutamate Receptor Ion Channels: Structure, Regulation, and Function
Pharmacological Reviews, 2010 The mammalian ionotropic glutamate receptor family encodes 18 gene products that coassemble to form ligand-gated ion channels containing an agonist recognition site, a transmembrane ion permeation pathway, and gating elements that couple agonist-induced ...

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 insight into small molecule action on Frizzleds
Nature Communications, 2020 WNT-Frizzled (FZD) signaling plays a critical role in embryonic development, tissue homeostasis and human disease but no small molecule drugs targeting FZD with distinct efficacy have emerged so far.
