Cgrp Characterization And Classification

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2001
The peptide CGRP is thought to be an agonist at a number of receptors including its own as well as those for adrenomedullin and amylin. CGRP is thought to act through its own receptors if it is antagonized by the truncated peptide CGRP8-37 although this ...

Discovery of Human Signaling Systems: Pairing Peptides to G Protein-Coupled Receptors

open access: yesCell, 2019
Summary The peptidergic system is the most abundant network of ligand-receptor-mediated signaling in humans. However, the physiological roles remain elusive for numerous peptides and more than 100 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).

Identification and characterization of nanobodies targeting the EphA4 receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The ephrin receptor A4 (EphA4) is one of the receptors in the ephrin system that plays a pivotal role in a variety of cell-cell interactions, mostly studied during development. In addition, EphA4 has been found to play a role in cancer biology as well as

Evaluation of a PACAP Peptide Analogue Labeled with (68)Ga Using Two Different Chelating Agents. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
OBJECTIVE: The authors have conjugated chelating agents (DOTA and NODAGA) with a peptide (pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide [PACAP] analogue) that has a high affinity for VPAC1 receptors expressed on cancer cells.

The TNF Receptors p55 and p75 Mediate Chemotaxis of PMN Induced by TNFα and a TNFα 36–62 Peptide

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1994
The present study was performed to examine whether residues 36–62 of TNFα contain the chemotactic domain of TNFα, and whether the p55 and p75 TNF receptors are involved in TNFα induced chemotaxis.

Short-Chain Fatty Acids Stimulate Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Secretion via the G-Protein–Coupled Receptor FFAR2

open access: yesDiabetes, 2012
Interest in how the gut microbiome can influence the metabolic state of the host has recently heightened. One postulated link is bacterial fermentation of “indigestible” prebiotics to short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which in turn modulate the release of

Structure of a Pheromone Receptor-Associated MHC Molecule with an Open and Empty Groove [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Neurons in the murine vomeronasal organ (VNO) express a family of class Ib major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins (M10s) that interact with the V2R class of VNO receptors.

Deorphanization of Novel Peptides and Their Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesThe AAPS Journal, 2010
Peptide hormones and neuropeptides play important roles in endocrine and neural signaling, often using G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-mediated signaling pathways. However, the rate of novel peptide discovery has slowed dramatically in recent years. Genomic sequencing efforts have yielded a large number of cDNA sequences that potentially encode novel

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...
