Signaling Pathways of Receptors Involved in Platelet Activation andShedding of These Receptors in Stored Platelets [PDF]
All cells encounter various signals coming from the surrounding environment and they need toreceive and respond to these signals in order to perform their functions. Cell surface receptorsare responsible for signal transduction .Platelets are blood cells

Cannabinoid receptor interacting protein suppresses agonist-driven CB1 receptor internalization and regulates receptor replenishment in an agonist-biased manner [PDF]
Cannabinoid receptor interacting protein 1a (CRIP1a) is a CB1 receptor (CB1R) distal C-terminus-associated protein that modulates CB1R signaling via G proteins, and CB1R down-regulation but not desensitization (Blume et al.

Viral destruction of cell surface receptors [PDF]
Viral infection is initiated by the attachment of the virus to the appropriate host cells. This process involves a series of dedicated virion proteins that have evolved to specifically recognize one, or a small number, of cell-surface molecules.

Biomaterials-mediated ligation of immune cell surface receptors for immunoengineering
A wide variety of cell surface receptors found on immune cells are essential to the body’s immunological defense mechanisms. Cell surface receptors enable immune cells to sense extracellular stimuli and identify pathogens, transmitting activating or ...

Calreticulin: Roles in Cell-Surface Protein Expression
In order to perform their designated functions, proteins require precise subcellular localizations. For cell-surface proteins, such as receptors and channels, they are able to transduce signals only when properly targeted to the cell membrane ...

A guide to chemokines and their receptors [PDF]
The chemokines (or chemotactic cytokines) are a large family of small, secreted proteins that signal through cell surface G‐protein coupled heptahelical chemokine receptors.

Interaction of Viruses with Cell Surface Receptors
This chapter discusses the interaction of viruses with cell surface receptors. The rigorous characterizations of receptor–ligand interactions have been derived from binding studies of radiolabeled ligands in neuropharmacology and endocrinology. The definition of viral recognition sites as receptors involves three major criteria that are derived from ...

Platelet Apoptosis Can Be Triggered Bypassing the Death Receptors
In nucleated cells, the extrinsic pathway of the programmed cell death (apoptosis) is triggered by interaction of death ligands of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily with the death receptors on external cell surface membrane.

Expanding functions of lipoprotein receptors
Lipoprotein receptors are evolutionarily ancient proteins that are expressed on the surface of many cell types. Beginning with the appearance of the first primitive multicellular organisms, several structurally and functionally distinct families of ...
