  1. 6. G protein-coupled receptor regulation: The role of protein interactions and receptor trafficking

    Författare :Caroline Sandén; Drug Target Discovery; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; receptor trafficking; B1 receptor; receptor oligomerization; estrogen; GPER1; G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1; EP24.15; BK; bradykinin; B1R; B2R; B2 receptor; GPCR; receptor maturation;

    Sammanfattning : The superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) is the largest gene family in the human genome. GPCR-mediated signaling operates in every human cell, and about 50% of existing clinically useful drugs act through GPCR. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Evolution and Pharmacology of Receptors for Bradykinin and Neuropeptide Y in Vertebrates

    Författare :Torun Bromée; dan larhammar; Nina Mohell; Samuel Svensson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Pharmacology; Evolution; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi;

    Sammanfattning : The bradykinin and neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors belong to the superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). The GPCRs form the largest class of therapeutic targets and it is therefore of great interest to investigate the pharmacological properties, functions and evolution of these receptors. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Mechanisms for leukocyte-mediated adjustment of endothelial barrier function

    Författare :Narinder Gautam; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Inflammation; leukocyte extravasation; endothelial cells; vascular permeability; plasma leakage integrin signaling; heparin binding protein; contact phase; bradykinin.;

    Sammanfattning : Extravasation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) and associated plasma exsudation are key events in the inflammatory process. The mechanism by which activated PMN may induce increased vascular permeability for macromolecules is not fully understood but crucially dependent on an intact leukocytic beta2 integrin (CD11/CD18) adhesion receptor function.

  5. 9. Histochemical, biochemical and electrophysiological studies on dorsal root ganglion cultures : focusing on galanin, neuropeptide Y and glutamate

    Författare :Nora Kerekes; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Acute and long-term DRG cultures; aFGF; BDNF; bFGF; bradykinin; excitability; galanin; glutamate; leukemia inhibitory factor; neuropeptide Y; : NGF; regeneration; whole cell patch clamp.;

    Sammanfattning : Galanin (Gal) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) are two peptides, which are strongly up- regulated in a population of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons after peripheral nerve injury (axotomy). Both peptides may be involved in the control of pain sensation, especially after nerve injury (neuropathic pain). LÄS MER

  7. 10. Mechanism and therapy of hereditary angioedema typ III and role of the contact system in inflammatory diseases

    Författare :Jenny Björkqvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Combinations of proinflammatory and procoagulant reactions are associated with a variety of disorders affecting the cardiovascular system. Vascular leakage contributes to the pathology of conditions such as, sepsis, allergy and anaphylactic reactions. LÄS MER
