ReceptorsBackground: Transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), a coronavirus (CoV) infecting pigs, uses its spike (S) glycoprotein to bind porcine aminopeptidase N (pAPN) for cell entry. Although structural studies have identified receptor-binding motifs (RBMs)

Pathophysiological role of extrasynaptic GABAA receptors in typical absence epilepsy [PDF]
, 2011 GABA is the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian CNS. It acts via two classes of receptors, the GABAA, a ligand gated ion channel (ionotropic receptor) and the metabotropic G-protein coupled GABAB receptor.

Fever-like temperature modification differentially affects in vitro signaling of bradykinin B-1 and B-2 receptors [PDF]
, 2011 The bradykinin (BK) B-2 and B-1 receptors (B2R, B1R) belong to the rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and are involved in (patho)physiological processes such as blood pressure regulation or inflammation.

Comparative Drug Response Profiling in Neuroblastoma Cell Lines and Patient‐Derived Tumor Organoids
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT High‐risk neuroblastoma remains a leading cause of pediatric cancer mortality, and improved preclinical models are needed to guide therapeutic developments. We screened seven high‐risk neuroblastoma cell lines and three patient‐derived tumor organoids with 528 compounds alongside bone marrow controls, and compared them with external datasets ...

Protective and Detrimental Roles of NLRP6 in Infection and Cancer
ReceptorsNLRP6 is a member of the NOD-like receptor family that was initially characterized as an inflammasome-forming sensor in the intestine. However, accumulating evidence over the past decade has revealed that the functions of NLRP6 extend far beyond this ...

GABA_{B} Receptors Regulate Chick Retinal Calcium Waves [PDF]
, 2001 Correlated spiking activity and associated Ca²⁺ waves in the developing retina are important in determining the connectivity of the visual system. Here, we show that GABA, via GABA_{B} receptors, regulates the temporal characteristics of Ca²⁺ waves ...

The role of dimerisation in the cellular trafficking of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
, 2010 The concept that G-protein-coupled receptors can exist as homomeric and/or heteromeric complexes is now well established. Despite this, how dynamic such interactions are and if this may be modulated during receptor trafficking remain topics of debate ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Multiple P2Y receptors couple to calcium-dependent, chloride channels in smooth muscle cells of the rat pulmonary artery [PDF]
, 2005 Uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) and uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) act via P2Y receptors to evoke contraction of rat pulmonary arteries, whilst adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) acts via P2X and P2Y receptors.

The Role of Toll-like Receptors (TLRs) in Fish Immunity
ReceptorsThe innate system’s recognition of non-self and danger signals is mediated by a limited number of germline-encoded pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs).
