The NAE Pathway: Autobahn to the Nucleus for Cell Surface Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2019
Various growth factors and full-length cell surface receptors such as EGFR are translocated from the cell surface to the nucleoplasm, baffling cell biologists to the mechanisms and functions of this process. Elevated levels of nuclear EGFR correlate with

Identification of PLXDC1 and PLXDC2 as the transmembrane receptors for the multifunctional factor PEDF [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Pigment Epithelium Derived Factor (PEDF) is a secreted factor that has broad biological activities. It was first identified as a neurotrophic factor and later as the most potent natural antiangiogenic factor, a stem cell niche factor, and an inhibitor of

Receptor-Mediated Muscle Homeostasis as a Target for Sarcopenia Therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism, 2021
Sarcopenia is a disease characterized by age-related decline of skeletal muscle mass and function. The molecular mechanisms of the pathophysiology of sarcopenia form a complex network due to the involvement of multiple interconnected signaling pathways ...

Identification of orphan ligand-receptor relationships using a cell-based CRISPRa enrichment screening platform

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Secreted proteins, which include cytokines, hormones, and growth factors, are extracellular ligands that control key signaling pathways mediating cell-cell communication within and between tissues and organs.

Research Progress on NK Cell Receptors and Their Signaling Pathways

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2020
Natural killer cells (NK cells) play an important role in innate immunity. NK cells recognize self and nonself depending on the balance of activating receptors and inhibitory receptors. After binding to their ligands, NK cell receptors trigger subsequent

Protein phosphatase 2A regulation of GABAB receptors normalizes ischemia-induced aberrant receptor trafficking and provides neuroprotection

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
One major factor regulating the strength of GABAB receptor signaling and thereby neuronal excitability is the dynamic control of their cell surface expression.

An extracellular steric seeding mechanism for Eph-ephrin signaling platform assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Erythropoetin-producing hepatoma (Eph) receptors are cell-surface protein tyrosine kinases mediating cell-cell communication. Upon activation, they form signaling clusters.

Aptamers for Targeted Drug Delivery

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2010
Aptamers are a class of therapeutic oligonucleotides that form specific three-dimensional structures that are dictated by their sequences. They are typically generated by an iterative screening process of complex nucleic acid libraries employing a ...
