Androgen Receptor and Estrogen Receptors

2002
The androgen receptor (AR) and the estrogen receptors (ER) are members of the nuclear receptor (NR) family. These NRs are distinguished from the other transcription factors by their ability to control gene expression upon ligand binding (steroids, retinoids, thyroid hormone, vitamin D, fatty acids, and other small hydrophobic molecules). Their combined

Prostanoid receptors: structures, properties, and functions.

Physiological Reviews, 1999
Prostanoids are the cyclooxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid and include prostaglandin (PG) D(2), PGE(2), PGF(2alpha), PGI(2), and thromboxne A(2).

Adenosine receptors: Intermembrane receptor–receptor interactions in the brain

Synergy, 2014
Summary In the vertebrate central nervous system (CNS) the modulation of synaptic transmission by metabotropic or ionotropic receptors is an important source of control and dynamical adjustment in synaptic activity and can contribute to synergistic or antagonistic effects.

The thyrotropin receptor as a model to illustrate receptor and receptor antibody diseases

Baillière's Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1995
The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) has been used as an example to illustrate how disease may be the consequence of: 1. Modifications or inappropriate production of the natural ligand. 2. Production of abnormal agonists or antagonists such as autoantibodies. 3.

The biology of chemokines and their receptors.

Annual Review of Immunology, 2000
During the last five years, the development of bioinformatics and EST databases has been primarily responsible for the identification of many new chemokines and chemokine receptors.

Gonadotropin Receptors

2016
The two gonadotrophin receptors (GnRs), luteinizing hormone receptor (LHCGR) and follicle-stimulating receptor (FSHR), belong to the glycoprotein hormone receptor subgroup of type A G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). LHCGR binds specifically the two structurally similar gonadotrophins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG),

Trk receptors: roles in neuronal signal transduction.

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2003
Trk receptors are a family of three receptor tyrosine kinases, each of which can be activated by one or more of four neurotrophins-nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotrophins 3 and 4 (NT3 and NT4).

Melatonin Receptor Signaling: Impact of Receptor Oligomerization on Receptor Function

2018
The melatonin receptor subfamily is composed of three members, MT1 and MT2, which are binding to melatonin, and GPR50, which shows high sequence homology to MT1 and MT2 but does not bind to melatonin or any other known ligand. An interesting feature of these receptors is their capacity to form homo- and heteromers between each other and also with other
