Bombesin receptor regulation of emotional memory [PDF]
Mammalian bombesin-like peptides neuromedin B (NMB) and gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) act by activating NMB receptors (NMBR, BBl) and GRP receptors (GRPR,BB2), respectively. These two bombesin receptors are members of the G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily.In the brain, NMBR and GRPR are highly expressed in the brain areas involved in ...

Neuropeptide G Protein-Coupled Receptors as Oncotargets
Neuropeptide G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are overexpressed on numerous cancer cells. In a number of tumors, such as small cell lung cancer (SCLC), bombesin (BB) like peptides and neurotensin (NTS) function as autocrine growth factors whereby they
