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 ...

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.

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 ...
