11. Native protein mass spectrometry of nuclear receptor-ligand and enzyme-substrate complexes
Sammanfattning : Nuclear receptors (NRs) are transcription factors that are activated by the binding of low molecular weight ligands. The NR superfamily includes receptors for steroid hormones, anti-inflammatory and lipid-lowering drugs as well as endogenous compounds such as bile acids and fatty acids. LÄS MER
12. Studies in nuclear receptor Nurr1 : identification of Nurr1-regulated genes
Sammanfattning : The nuclear receptor family comprises more than sixty members, including receptors for steroids, thyroid hormone and retinoids. Many nuclear receptors function as ligand- activated transcription factors that regulate the expression of specific target genes. LÄS MER
13. Modulation of nuclear receptor activity by a unique class of corepressors
Sammanfattning : Nuclear receptors comprise a unique family of transcription factors that are crucial regulators of gene expression involved in diverse physiological and developmental processes. The nuclear receptor field has undergone a very rapid development during the recent two decades due to the recognition of the importance of nuclear receptors as intracellular signal transmitters and pharmaceutical targets. LÄS MER
14. Signal transduction via estrogen receptors (ERs) and estrogen receptor-related receptors (ERRs)
Sammanfattning : Estrogens influence post-natal development and function of the female reproductive system and other organs including bone and cardiovascular system. Estrogens are also involved in the development and growth of certain cancers in e.g. breast and uterine endometrium. LÄS MER
15. Nuclear hormone receptor signaling in the developing CNS : studies on the retinoid receptors RAR and RXR, and the orphan receptors NURR1, NOR1 and NGFI-B
Sammanfattning : The nuclear hormone receptor superfamily comprises more than sixty members, including receptors for steroids, thyroid hormone, vitamin D and retinoids. Many nuclear receptors function as ligand-induced transcription factors that upregulate expression of specific target genes. LÄS MER
