Functional expression of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor from cloned cDNA in fibroblasts. [PDF]
, 1986 The polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, a transmembrane protein, is made by a variety of polarized epithelial cells. After synthesis, the receptor is sent to the basolateral surface where it binds polymeric IgA and IgM.

SSTR1 and SSTR5 subtypes are the dominant forms of somatostatin receptor in neuroendocrine tumors.
Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2010 The effectiveness of the long acting somatostatin analogues like octreotide and lanreotide depends on the expression of specific somatostatin receptors on the target cells.

Characterization of Cytokine Treatment on Human Pancreatic Islets by Top‐Down Proteomics
PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from autoimmune‐mediated destruction of insulin‐producing β cells in the pancreatic islet. This process is modulated by pro‐inflammatory cytokine signaling, which has been previously shown to alter protein expression in ex vivo islets.

The organisation of spinoparabrachial neurons in the mouse [PDF]
, 2015 The anterolateral tract (ALT), which originates from neurons in lamina I and the deep dorsal horn, represents a major ascending output through which nociceptive information is transmitted to brain areas involved in pain perception.

A Transgenic Rat for Investigating the Anatomy and Function of Corticotrophin Releasing Factor Circuits. [PDF]
, 2015 Corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) is a 41 amino acid neuropeptide that coordinates adaptive responses to stress. CRF projections from neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) to the brainstem are of particular interest for their role in ...

Activation of Brain Somatostatin Signaling Suppresses CRF Receptor-Mediated Stress Response
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017 Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is the hallmark brain peptide triggering the response to stress and mediates—in addition to the stimulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis—other hormonal, behavioral, autonomic and visceral ...
