Skeletal Muscle, 2011 Abstract Excitation-contraction coupling involves the faithful conversion of electrical stimuli to mechanical shortening in striated muscle cells, enabled by the ubiquitous second messenger, calcium. Crucial to this process are ryanodine receptors (RyRs), the sentinels of massive intracellular calcium stores contained within the sarcoplasmic ...

Role of Glucocorticoid Receptor in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
ReceptorsTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive tumor among breast cancer subtypes with much lower overall survival at metastasis compared to other subtypes and with limited treatment options due to a lack of targeted therapies. This has led to the

The evolution and comparative neurobiology of endocannabinoid signalling [PDF]
, 2012 CB(1)- and CB(2)-type cannabinoid receptors mediate effects of the endocannabinoids 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and anandamide in mammals. In canonical endocannabinoid-mediated synaptic plasticity, 2-AG is generated postsynaptically by diacylglycerol ...

Patched, the receptor of Hedgehog, is a lipoprotein receptor [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008 The Hedgehog (Hh) family of secreted signaling proteins has a broad variety of functions during metazoan development and implications in human disease. Despite Hh being modified by two lipophilic adducts, Hh migrates far from its site of synthesis and programs cellular outcomes depending on its local concentrations.

Nuclear Receptors: Mechanistic Insights into Endocrine Resistance in Prostate and Breast Cancers
ReceptorsThis review focuses on the pivotal roles of nuclear receptors (NRs) in driving endocrine resistance in prostate and breast cancers. In prostate cancer (PCa), androgen receptor (AR) amplification, mutations, and altered coactivator interactions sustain ...

The effect of N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate and N-acetyl-aspartate on white matter oligodendrocytes [PDF]
, 2009 Elevations of the levels of N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate (NAAG) and N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA) are associated with myelin loss in the leucodystrophies Canavan's disease and Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease. NAAG and NAA can activate and antagonize neuronal
