Receptor oligomerization: from early evidence to current understanding in class B GPCRs [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
Dimerization or oligomerization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are known to modulate receptor functions in terms of ontogeny, ligand-oriented regulation, pharmacological diversity, signal transduction and internalization.

Activity of Parathyroid Hormone Receptor Genes in Ligamentum Flavum Biopsies of Patients with Spinal Canal and Dural Sac Stenosis at the Lumbar Level

open access: yesActa Biomedica Scientifica, 2021
Parathyroid hormone receptors PTH1R and PTH2R are poorly studied in the pathology of the vertebral column and may be involved in both ectopic ossification of the vertebral ligaments and fibrous growth of the extracellular matrix, as well as in other ...

The Unicellular State as a Point Source in a Quantum Biological System. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A point source is the central and most important point or place for any group of cohering phenomena. Evolutionary development presumes that biological processes are sequentially linked, but neither directed from, nor centralized within, any specific ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Parathyroid Disorders in Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHP) is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) that induces morbidity and mortality in patients. How CKD stimulates the parathyroid to increase parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion, gene expression and cell ...

Tctex-1 augments G protein-coupled receptor-mediated Gs signaling by activating adenylyl cyclase

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2021
Proteins interacting with G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) can modulate signal transduction of these receptors. However, the regulatory mechanisms of the interacting proteins are diverse and largely unknown.

Calcitriol-Mediated Hypercalcemia, Somatostatin Receptors Expression and 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3-1α- Hydroxylase in GIST Tumors

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Hypercalcemia is a common complication in cancer patients Mainly caused by Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) secretion and metastasis. Calcitriol secretion is a rare source of hypercalcemia in solid tumors, especially in gastrointestinal ...

Secretion of parathyroid hormone may be coupled to insulin secretion in humans

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2020
Objective: Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a key hormone in regulation of calcium homeostasis and its secretion is regulated by calcium. Secretion of PTH is attenuated during intake of nutrients, but the underlying mechanism(s) are unknown.

Selective vitamin D receptor activator Paricalcitol and its potential benefits in hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesМедицинский совет, 2022
Currently, the incidence and prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are increasing annually worldwide, and clinical data show that CKD patients commonly experience relative vitamin D insufficiency or deficiency.

Loss of receptor activity-modifying protein 2 in mice causes placental dysfunction and alters PTH1R regulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Receptor activity-modifying protein 2 (Ramp2) is a single-pass transmembrane protein that heterodimerizes with several family B G-protein coupled receptors to alter their function.
