Does kisspeptin belong to the proposed RF-amide peptide family?
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2014 Kisspeptin (KISS) plays a key role in regulating reproduction by binding to its receptor, GPR54 (KISSR). Because of the Arg-Phe (RF) sequence at its carboxyl terminus, KISS has been proposed to be a member of the RF-amide peptide family consisting of ...

The Natriuretic Peptides and Their Receptors
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1992 Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is released from the cardiac atrium in response to stretch and acts through receptors to cause an increase in urinary flow and sodium excretion, vasodilatation, and a reduction in blood volume. Recently, two new natriuretic peptides, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (C-typeNP), have been ...

Large-Scale Combinatorial Deorphanization of Platynereis Neuropeptide GPCRs
Cell Reports, 2015 Neuropeptides, representing the largest class of neuromodulators, commonly signal by G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). While the neuropeptide repertoire of several metazoans has been characterized, many GPCRs are orphans.

Combination of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with fractionated external beam radiotherapy for treatment of advanced symptomatic meningioma [PDF]
, 2012 Background: External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is the treatment of choice for irresectable meningioma. Due to the strong expression of somatostatin receptors, peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) has been used in advanced cases.
