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

42. Ligands of the Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor : Exploring structure and function of the AT2R ligand C38
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
43. Prostate cancer theranostics using GRPR antagonist RM26
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
44. Delineating Ligand-Receptor Interactions and the Design of Subtype Selective Galanin Receptor Ligands
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
45. Evolution and Pharmacology of Neuropeptide Y Receptors, Implications for vertebrate genome duplications
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
