Thus, the glyceryl ester of prostaglandin E2, PGE2-G, mobilizes Ca²⁺ and activates pro...Background The log2 fold expression change and the p-value for the comparison with the wt under regular chow is given. (DOCX)Immunhistochemistry of hearts of Mc4r wildtype and mutant mice. Parabens are preservatives widely used in consumer products including cosmetics and food. (DOCX)Results of spearman correlation between serum cholesterol levels and the plaque size in BCA and heart, respectively. This is a tightly regulated process involving a complex interplay of various signals. This receptor is highly expressed in microglia, however, the functional relevance of GPR34 in these glial cells is unknown. + p value < 0.05, — p >...Members of the Adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (aGPCR) family carry an agonistic sequence within their large ectodomains. Overlap analysis revealed in 79 significant differentially expressed genes of the nasal mucosa when compared between SPF and non-SPF both after one week and two weeks. Here we show th...UDP sugars were identified as extracellular signaling molecules, assigning a new function to these compounds in addition to Our...Significant overlapping of differentially expressed transcripts at both points of time in the nasal mucosa when compared between SPF and non-SPF. Some of the mechanisms of ethanol-induced injury, such as high level oxidative stress and overexpression of pro-apoptotic genes, can increase the sensitivity of fetal neurons towards hypoxic/ischemic stress associated with normal...The Adhesion family forms a large branch of the pharmacologically important superfamily of G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs). Previously regarded as an orphan receptor, the Data are given as mean ± standard error of me...Functional enrichment analysis of differentially expressed compared to wild-type mice under regular chow. As the past years have seen a magnificent increase in knowledge on adhesion GPCR (aGPCR) signal transduction, the time had come to fill the gap on how these receptors can be activated. To study the impact of obesity and dyslipidemia on the cardiovascular system, we generated mice double-deficient for the melanocortin type 4 receptor (Mc4rmut...Atherosclerosis in mice lacking both receptors Mc4r and Ldlr. G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been established as...Research on GPR34, which was discovered in 1999 as an orphan G protein-coupled receptor of the rhodopsin-like class, disclosed its physiologic relevance only piece by piece.
Juxtaposed to the seven-pass transmembrane domain is...Metabotropic pyrimidine and purine nucleotide receptors (P2Y receptors) are expressed in virtually all cells with implications in very diverse biological functions, including the well-established platelet aggregation (P2Y12), but also immune regulation and inflammation. The existence of such an...BACKGROUND Torsten Schöneberg Cyclooxygenase-2 catalyses the biosynthesis of prostaglandins from arachidonic acid but also the biosynthesis of prostaglandin glycerol esters (PG-Gs) from 2-arachidonoylglycerol. Gene lists were generated comprising only genes that were significantly regulated in all groups fed with semisynthetic diet, but in none of the regular chow fed mice.
insipidus can be mutations in AQP2 or AVPR2. A recently discovered interaction between the Adhesion GPCRs Latrophilins and the type II single transmembrane proteins Teneurins at mammalian synapses is vital for synapse formation and dendrite branchin...Insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells is a highly complex and tightly regulated process. However, the molecular understanding of how LAB modulate human physiology is still limit...The interplay of microbiota and the human host is physiologically crucial in health and diseases. Additionally to TSH, the TSH receptor for example, can be activated by mutations and autoantibodies causing hyperthyroidism and Graves disease, resp...The recent availability of multiple avian genomes has laid the foundation for a huge variety of comparative genomics analyses including scans for changes and signatures of selection that arose from adaptions to new ecological niches. The class of Adhesion GPCR (aGPCR) and their role in adipose tissue, however, is poorly studied. Composition is listed in the table. They activate G protein-coupled receptors, including GPR84 and HCA3, which regulate metabolism and immune functions. Unexpected and unprecedented findings suggest that Adhesion GPCRs constitute a group of receptors that sense mechanical stimuli and transco...Glycoprotein hormones (GPHs) are the main regulators of the pituitary-thyroid and pituitary-gonadal axes. Studies on the effects of G protein signals on tissues as well as an entire organism are often conducted in Caenorhabditis elegans. ].The enormous sizes of adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) go along with complex genomic exon-intron architectures giving rise to multiple mRNA variants. Adhesion GPCRs harbor a tethered agonist sequence (reproduced from [24])
Methods Although both receptors are coupled to Gi proteins, share at least one...In contrast to most rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors, the glycoprotein hormone receptors (GPHR) have a large extracellular N-terminus for hormone binding. Intensities of signals marked blue are independent of the fatty acid type. The trace amine-associated receptor 1 (Taar1) is a Gs protein-coupled receptor activated by trace amines, such as β-phenylethylamine (β-PEA) and 3-iodothyronamine (T1AM). However , the molecular understanding of how LAB modulate human physiology is still limi...Transsynaptic connections enabling cell–cell adhesion and cellular communication are a vital part of synapse formation, maintenance and function. A number of animal models of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are established but they significantly differ in the molecular and biochemical changes depending on the genetic modification and diet used.
