Cannabinoid receptors as therapeutic targets.
CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors are the primary targets of endogenous cannabinoids (endocannabinoids). These G protein-coupled receptors play an important role in many processes, including metabolic regulation, craving, pain, anxiety, bone growth, and immune function. Cannabinoid receptors can be engaged directly by agonists or antagonists, or indirectly by manipulating endocannabinoid metabo...
متن کاملAdenosine receptors as targets for therapeutic intervention.
The synchronous occurrence of primary renal cell carcinoma with gastric cancer is very rare. We report a case of 41 year old male who presented on 05/07/2011 to M S Ramaiah hospital, Bangalore with history of fever, pain abdomen and malena. Ultrasound abdomen and pelvis showed large heterogenous mass arising from the upper pole of left kidney. Computed tomography of the abdomen showed left rena...
متن کاملP2X Receptors as New Therapeutic Targets
P2X receptors are membrane non-selective cation channels that gated in the presence of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and related diand tri-phosphate nucleotides, that more commonly known for providing cells with energy. Binding of ATP to the excellular pocket of P2X triggers the opening of transmembrane pore, which allows sodium, magnesium, potassium, calcium and other organic ions...
متن کاملMetabotropic Glutamate Receptors as Novel Therapeutic Targets on Visceral Sensory Pathways
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) have a diverse range of structures and molecular coupling mechanisms. There are eight mGluR subtypes divided into three major groups. Group I (mGluR1 and 5) is excitatory; groups II (mGluR2 and 3) and III (mGluR 4, 6, and 7) are inhibitory. All mGluR are found in the mammalian nervous system but some are absent from sensory neurons. The focus here is on ...
متن کاملAdhesion receptors as therapeutic targets for circulating tumor cells
Metastasis contributes to >90% of cancer-associated mortality. Though primary tumors can be removed by surgical resection or chemo/radiotherapy, metastatic disease is a great challenge to treatment due to its systemic nature. As metastatic "seeds," circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are believed to be responsible for dissemination from a primary tumor to anatomically distant organs. Despite the pos...
