Structure and function of somatostatin receptors in growth hormone control.
This new generation of SRIF analogs offer exciting opportunities to improve hormone hypersecretion in patients with GH- and TSH-secreting pituitary adenomas and possibly even in patients harboring prolactinomas and non-functioning tumors. Future development of novel analogs with improved affinity for both SSTR2 and SSTR5 may have even greater potency to suppress pituitary hormone hypersecretion...

متن کاملThyroid hormone receptors regulate adipogenesis and carcinogenesis via crosstalk signaling with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily. They are ligand-dependent transcription factors that interact with their cognate hormone response elements in the promoters to regulate respective target gene expression to modulate cellular functions. While the transcription activity of each is regulated by t...
متن کاملStructure and function of Toll receptors and their ligands.
The Toll family of class I transmembrane receptors recognizes and responds to diverse structures associated with pathogenic microorganisms. These receptors mediate initial responses in innate immunity and are required for the development of the adaptive immune response. Toll receptor signaling pathways are also implicated in serious autoimmune diseases such as endotoxic shock and thus are impor...
متن کاملBAFF, APRIL and their receptors: structure, function and signaling.
BAFF, APRIL and their receptors play important immunological roles, especially in the B cell arm of the immune system. A number of splice isoforms have been described for both ligands and receptors in this subfamily, some of which are conserved between mouse and human, while others are species-specific. Structural and mutational analyses have revealed key determinants of receptor-ligand specifi...
