To be or not to be (a receptor)

Steroids, 2007
In addition to cellular responses that are elicited by steroids involving the modulation of transcription in the nucleus, it is now generally accepted that additional phenomena occur that do not depend on the genome. However, there is a puzzling variety of candidate receptors described in the literature.

Receptor–receptor interactions within receptor mosaics. Impact on neuropsychopharmacology

Brain Research Reviews, 2008
Future therapies for diseases associated with altered dopaminergic signaling, including Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia and drug addiction or drug dependence may substantially build on the existence of intramembrane receptor-receptor interactions within dopamine receptor containing receptor mosaics (RM; dimeric or high-order receptor oligomers ...

The Death Receptors

1999
In recent years apoptosis, also called programmed cell death, has been recognized to be the physiological way for a nucleated animal cell to die. Apoptosis takes care of unwanted, injured or virus-infected cells (Farber 1994; Collins 1995). Autoreactive T and B cells that are produced by the immune system by the millions every day are also eliminated ...

Glucagon receptors

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2008
Glucagon is a pancreatic peptide hormone that, as a counterregulatory hormone for insulin, stimulates glucose release by the liver and maintains glucose homeostasis. First described as a glucagon binding entity functionally linked to adenylyl cyclase, the glucagon receptor is a member of the family B receptors within the G protein coupled superfamily ...

Chemokine receptors

Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews, 2001
Although chemokines were originally defined as host defense proteins it is now clear that their repertoire of functions extend well beyond this role. For example chemokines such as MGSA have growth regulatory properties while members of the CXC chemokine family can be mediators or inhibitors of angiogenesis and may be important targets for oncology ...

Receptor Regulation and Receptor-Receptor Communication

1987
As recently as five years ago, what one might term the “grind and bind era” of receptor studies was still in full bloom; and a large number of studies were focussed on determining receptor affinities and numbers under a variety of physiologic situations.

Fc receptors

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1991
In the past year, significant progress in the area of Fc receptor biology has been made in three areas: identification of the protective FcR for serum IgG half-life (Brambell receptor), characterization of the mechanism(s) of inhibitory receptor Fc gamma RIIB signaling, and dissection of the in vivo roles of FcRs in inflammation.

Enigmatic receptors

Pharmaceutica Acta Helvetiae, 2000
The identification of new binding sites raises the problem of defining their role, if any. At times they are shown to be pharmacological receptors, in a strict sense, as they fulfill certain requirements, and a precise physiological role and function, and an endogenous ligand (neurotransmitter) are discovered.

Receptor-dsRNA-Receptor

Science, 2008
Toll-like receptors recognize molecules associated with pathogens and initiate inflammatory responses. For example, Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) recognizes double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), an intermediate viral replication. The TLR3 ectodomain binds as a dimer to dsRNA, but the molecular basis for signaling remains unclear.
