INSL3/RXFP2 Signaling in Testicular Descent [PDF]
Mutations of the insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) hormone or its receptor, RXFP2, cause intraabdominal cryptorchidism in male mice. Specific RXFP2 expression in mouse gubernacula was detected at embryonic day 14.5 and markedly increased after birth in the developing cremaster muscle, as well as in the epididymis and testicular Leydig and germ cells ...

Modeling the Primary Hormone-Binding Site of RXFP1 and RXFP2
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009The primary binding sites of the relaxin and insulin‐like peptide 3 (INSL3) receptors, RXFP1 and RXFP2, are found within the leucine‐rich repeats (LRRs) of the ectodomains. Specific B‐chain residues in the peptides interact with residues in the inner β‐sheets of the LRRs of the receptors.

A missense mutation in LRR8 of RXFP2 is associated with cryptorchidism
Mammalian Genome, 2010Using genome-wide mutagenesis with N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU), a mouse mutant with cryptorchidism was identified. Genome mapping and exon sequencing identified a novel missense mutation (D294G) in Relaxin/insulin-like family peptide receptor 2 (Rxfp2).

Resolving the Unconventional Mechanisms Underlying RXFP1 and RXFP2 Receptor Function
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009The receptors for relaxin and insulin‐like peptide 3 (INSL3) are now well‐characterized as the relaxin family peptide (RXFP) receptors RXFP1 and RXFP2, respectively. They are G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) with closest similarity to the glycoprotein hormone receptors, with both containing large ectodomains with 10 leucine‐rich repeats (LRRs ...

RXFP2 Small Molecule Agonists: Potential Therapeutics for Osteoporosis
The FASEB Journal, 2022Osteoporosis is a chronic bone disease characterized by decreased bone mass and increased risk of developing fractures, predominantly observed in the elderly. Osteoporosis affects approximately 10 million people in the US, and the number is expected to increase exponentially as the elderly population continues to grow.

Mutations in INSL3 and RXFP2 Genes in Cryptorchid Boys
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009Mutations in the INSL3 and RXFP2 genes have been associated with human cryptorchidism but with contrasting data. We analyzed the frequency of mutations in these genes in 600 newborns with cryptorchidism (396 unilateral and 204 bilateral) and 300 noncryptorchid subjects.

The Importance of Tryptophan B28 in H2 Relaxin for RXFP2 Binding and Activation [PDF]
H2 relaxin (relaxin) is a member of the insulin–relaxin superfamily and exhibits several non-reproductive functions in addition to its well-known properties as a pregnancy hormone. Over the years, the therapeutic potential of relaxin has been examined for a number of conditions.

Discovery of SNPs in RXFP2 related to horn types in sheep
Small Ruminant Research, 2014Abstract This study was conducted with an attempt to reveal genetic variation in ovine RXFP2 , which is a strong candidate gene that is associated with sheep horn development and types. All 18 exons and intro-exon boundary regions as well as 5′ and 3′ gene flanking regions of RXFP2 were re-sequenced using DNA panels representing four typical horn ...
