  1. 41. Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2 - A G protein coupled receptor with unique signaling properties in neutrophils

    Författare :Simon Lind; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neutrophils; G protein coupled receptors; Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2; GPR43; Allosteric modulation; Transactivation; Cross-talk; Biased signalling; Functional selectivity;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of the PhD thesis was to determine the role of neutrophil pattern recognition receptors in the initiation and resolution of inflammatory processes. Neutrophil pattern recognition receptors such as the formyl peptide receptors (FPRs) and the short free fatty acid receptors (FFARs) belong to the family of G protein coupled receptors (GPCR).

  2. 42. Ligands of the Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor : Exploring structure and function of the AT2R ligand C38

    Författare :Rebecka Isaksson; Mats Larhed; Annette Bayer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Angiotensin II type 2 receptor; AT2R antagonists; sulfonyl carbamates; bicyclic amides; metabolic stability; functional activity assay; pharmacological profile; medicinal chemistry; structure-activity relationship; Medicinal Chemistry; Läkemedelskemi;

    Sammanfattning : The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS) control blood-pressure regulation, exerted by the main effector peptide angiotensin II (AngII) binding the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R). While hypertension is the most known disease caused by over-activity in RAAS, several proteins in the system exhibit protective functions. LÄS MER

  3. 43. Prostate cancer theranostics using GRPR antagonist RM26

    Författare :Bogdan Mitran; Anna Orlova; Vladimir Tolmachev; Ulrika Rosenström; Tony Lahoutte; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gastrin-releasing peptide receptor GRPR ; Bombesin; Prostate-specific membrane antigen PSMA ; Antagonist; Radionuclide molecular imaging; Theranostics; Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy PRRT .;

    Sammanfattning : The malignant transformation of cells is often associated with an alteration of their molecular phenotype, resulting in overexpression of several cell surface proteins. Gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) are examples of such pro-teins that are expressed at a high density in prostate cancer. LÄS MER

  4. 44. Delineating Ligand-Receptor Interactions and the Design of Subtype Selective Galanin Receptor Ligands

    Författare :Johan Runesson; Ülo Langel; Barbara Kofler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Sammanfattning : We now celebrate that it is 30 years since galanin was first isolated. During these three decades galanin has been identified in numerous tissues and physiological processes, and in an abundant number of species. In the nervous system galanin primarily displays a modulatory role. LÄS MER

  5. 45. Evolution and Pharmacology of Neuropeptide Y Receptors, Implications for vertebrate genome duplications

    Författare :Robert Fredriksson; Susanne Holmgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Evolution; tetraploidizations; G-protein coupled receptor; neuropeptide Y; zebrafish; chicken; rainbow trout; lamprey; genome duplications; peptide YY; pancreatic polypeptide; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; medicinsk farmakologi; Medical Pharmacology;

    Sammanfattning : The Y receptors comprise a family of evolutionarily related receptors belonging to the superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR). Their natural ligands are in mammals neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). LÄS MER
