The present invention provides chimeric receptors. The chimeric receptors comprise at least one region homologous to a region of a metabotropic glutamate receptor and at least one region...
-
The contribution of osteoclasts to the process of bone loss in inflammatory arthritis has recently been demonstrated. Studies in osteoclast biology have led to the identification of factors...
-
Background Based on sequence similarity, the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPRs) can be subdivided into several subfamilies, the members of which often share similar...
-
Background The rationale of using bovine papillomavirus-1 (BPV-1) derived vectors in gene therapy protocols lies in their episomal maintenance at intermediate to high copy number, and...
-
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest and most diverse family of transmembrane receptors. A pylogenetic analysis shows the overall relationship of 277 human GPCRs. An emphasis on...
-
Background Modulation of the expression of retinoic acid receptors (RAR) α and γ in adult rat prostate by testosterone (T) suggests that RAR signaling events might mediate some of the...

Chemical patent from PubChem database. Patent Number: AT-E400569-T1. Title: Crystalline Forms of Chemical Compounds. Filing Date: 1996-04-21. Inventors: Chen, Wei, Kumar, Raj, Williams, Sarah....
-
Background The mechanisms by which alpha-2 adrenergic receptors are down-regulated following chronic exposure to agonist are not well understood. Interestingly, the human alpha-2C...
-
Background Though the dysfunction of central dopaminergic system has been proposed, the etiology or pathogenesis of schizophrenia is still uncertain partly due to limited accessibility...
-
Background Acetylcholine receptors become aggregated at the developing neuromuscular synapse shortly after contact by a motorneuron in one of the earliest manifestations of synaptic...
-
We have previously shown that neuroendocrine activation leading to increased circulating stress hormones was necessary for mediating ozone-induced lung injury and inflammation since adrenalectomy...
-
Background The mammalian olfactory apparatus is able to recognize and distinguish thousands of structurally diverse volatile chemicals. This chemosensory function is mediated by a very...
-
Background One of the earliest steps in synaptogenesis at the neuromuscular junction is the aggregation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at the postsynaptic membrane. This study...
-
Background The delta(δ)-opioid receptors belong to the G protein-coupled receptors and in vitro studies have shown that δ-opioid receptors undergo an internalization process in response...
-
Background The expression of retinal CaMKII is up-regulated in the retina of the rdta mouse in which rod photoreceptors are genetically ablated. As ionotropic glutamate receptors are...
-
Background Leucine-rich repeats are one of the more common modules found in proteins. The leucine-rich repeat consensus motif is LxxLxLxxNxLxxLxxLxxLxx- where the first 11–12 residues...
-
Background Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) has multiple physiologic roles mediated by G protein coupled receptors designated E-prostanoid, or "EP" receptors. Evidence supports an important role...
-
It is intended to provide a novel receptor of LPA and a method of screening a drug such as an LPA receptor antagonist using the same. Use as a lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor comprising a G...
-
A novel nuclear receptor, termed the steroid and xenobiotic receptor (SXR), a broad-specificity sensing receptor that is a novel branch of the nuclear receptor superfamily, has been discovered....

This study describes the upregulation of neurokinin 1 and bradykinin 2 receptors in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in the course of antigen-induced arthritis (AIA) in the rat knee. In the...
