Soluble Receptors Affecting Stroke Outcomes: Potential Biomarkers and Therapeutic Tools

, 2021
Soluble receptors are widely understood to be freestanding moieties formed via cleavage from their membrane-bound counterparts. They have unique structures, are found among various receptor families, and have intriguing mechanisms of generation and ...

Biochemical studies on muscarinic cholinergic receptors [PDF]

, 2016
A novel solubilising agent (0.l% sodium cholate—lM NaCl) has been developed which will solubilise 10—30% of muscarinic cholinergic receptors from bovine caudate nucleus.

Frizzled Proteins are bona fide G Protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]

, 2009
Receptors of the Frizzled family initiate Wnt ligand-dependent signaling controlling multiple steps in organism development and highly conserved in evolution. Misactivation of the Wnt/Frizzled signaling is cancerogenic.

The inhibitory receptor LILRB4 (ILT3) modulates antigen presenting cell phenotype and, along with LILRB2 (ILT4), is upregulated in response to Salmonella infection. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Leukocyte Ig-like receptors (LILR) are a family of innate immune receptors with immunomodulatory functions. High-level expression of the receptors LILRB2 (ILT4) and LILRB4 (ILT3) is a feature of tolerogenic antigen presenting cells and has ...

A concept of soluble receptors in bronchial asthma [PDF]

Functioning of soluble receptors, mainly soluble cytokine receptors, has been of interest to researchers since the last decade of the 20th century. Allergists’ interest in the issues of soluble receptors is relevant to our studies in the pathogenesis of ...

Elevated endotoxin levels in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Emerging data indicate that gut-derived endotoxin may contribute to low-grade systemic inflammation in insulin resistant states. This study aimed to examine the importance of serum endotoxin and inflammatory markers in non-alcoholic fatty ...

Cytokine soluble receptors in perinatal and early neonatal life [PDF]

, 2003
BACKGROUND: In contrast to cellular receptors, soluble receptors do not enhance the cellular activation because they do not have transmembranic and cytoplasmic parts, acting thereby as endogenous regulatory mechanisms against systemic functions of ...

Effect of antihypertensive therapy with alpha methyldopa on levels of angiogenic factors in pregnancies with hypertensive disorders. [PDF]

, 2008
Antihypertensive drugs are believed to lower blood pressure in pre-eclampsia by direct or central vasodilatory mechanisms. However, they could also act by decreasing production of anti-angiogenic proteins involved in the pathophysiology of hypertension ...
