The expanding repertoire of receptor activity modifying protein (RAMP) function [PDF]
Receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMPs) associate with G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) at the plasma membrane and together bind a variety of peptide ligands, serving as a communication interface between the extracellular and intracellular environments.

Calcitonin, CGRP, adrenomedullin, and amylin require both CRLR (calcitonin-gene receptor like receptor) and receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMP1, RAMP2, and RAMP3) in different combinations for expression of selective, functional receptors[1].

The Cross-Talk Between EGFR and E-Cadherin
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and adhesion protein E-cadherin are major regulators of proliferation and differentiation in epithelial cells. Consistently, defects in both EGFR and E-cadherin-mediated intercellular adhesion are linked to various

Epigenetics in ovarian cancer: premise, properties, and perspectives. [PDF]
Malignant ovarian tumors bear the highest mortality rate among all gynecological cancers. Both late tumor diagnosis and tolerance to available chemical therapy increase patient mortality.

Agonist bias and agonist‐dependent antagonism at corticotrophin releasing factor receptors
The corticotropin‐releasing factor (CRF) receptors represent potential drug targets for the treatment of anxiety, stress, and other disorders. However, it is not known if endogenous CRF receptor agonists display biased signaling, how effective CRF ...

The role of ECL2 in CGRP receptor activation: a combined modelling and experimental approach [PDF]
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.

Post-translational modulation of cell signalling through protein succinylation
Cells need to adapt their activities to extra- and intracellular signalling cues. To translate a received extracellular signal, cells have specific receptors that transmit the signal to downstream proteins so that it can reach the nucleus to initiate or ...

Identification of novel molecular signatures of IgA nephropathy through an integrative -omics analysis [PDF]
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent among primary glomerular diseases worldwide. Although our understanding of IgAN has advanced significantly, its underlying biology and potential drug targets are still unexplored.
