research PLA2R1 Overexpression Causes Podocyte Injury by Inhibiting the Cell Cycle: A Clinical Cross-Sectional Investigation and Cellular Study
This study suggests that PLA2R1 overexpression in PMN affects the podocyte cycle and may involve an additional immune response, which could provide new directions for PMN treatment development.
research Insights learned from L457(3.43)R, an activating mutant of the human lutropin receptor
This study found that the L457(3.43)R mutation in the human luteinizing hormone receptor increases phosphodiesterase activity, reducing hormonal response despite elevated basal cAMP levels.
research Discovery of a transdermally deliverable pentapeptide for activating AdipoR1 to promote hair growth
This study found that a 5-mer peptide called P5 promotes hair growth by activating adiponectin receptor 1, suggesting its potential use as a topical treatment for alopecia.
research Prostaglandin D2(PGD2); prostaglandin D2 receptor (CRTH2; GPR44; CD294); prostaglandin D2 synthase (PTGDS)
Blocking a protein called prostaglandin D2 might help treat hair loss.
research Therapeutic anti-inflammatory potential of formyl-peptide receptor agonists
This article explores the potential of formyl-peptide receptor 2 agonists as innovative anti-inflammatory drugs, highlighting their ability to mimic the body's natural inflammation response, but it presents no new clinical findings.
research Signaling by the Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor Family
This review summarizes the roles of PDGF and its receptors in cell development and wound healing, reporting no new research findings; the authors emphasize PDGF's diverse biological functions.
research The atypical ‘hippocampal’ glutamate receptor coupled to phospholipase D that controls stretch‐sensitivity in primary mechanosensory nerve endings is homomeric purely metabotropic GluK2
In this study, researchers identified the PLD-mGluR protein in primary mechanosensory terminals as the homomeric GluK2 kainate receptor, functioning purely metabotropically, which is suggested to be common to various sensory endings.
research Molecular studies of transient receptor potential Vanilloid 3 (TRPV3)
In this study, researchers explored various aspects of the TRPV3 ion channel, including its novel mechanosensitivity to shear stress, and identified novel agonists while investigating how repeated stimulation affects TRPV3 activity, but found no evidence of GPCRs sensitizing the channel.
research PNU 157706, a novel dual type I and II5α-reductase inhibitor
This study found that PNU 157706 is a highly potent inhibitor of human 5α-reductase enzymes, showing a stronger and longer-lasting antiprostatic effect in rats compared to finasteride.
research Allopregnanolone is required for prepulse inhibition deficits induced by D1 dopamine receptor activation
This study found that in rodent models, the ability of D1 dopamine receptor activation to impair sensory gating is facilitated by 5α-reductase type 1, which produces allopregnanolone.
research Prostaglandin E 2 Receptor 2 Modulates Macrophage Activity for Cardiac Repair
This study found that EP 2 signaling is crucial for macrophage recruitment and inflammatory regulation in the injured heart, impacting cardiac repair processes.
research 223 Canonical and Dominant Negative Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ Isoforms are Differentially Expressed in Human Skin and Skin Appendages
This study found that cPPARγ and dnPPARγ isoforms are differentially expressed in healthy human skin, suggesting that PPARγ modulators may have compartment-specific effects depending on isoform presence.
research Expression Level of Prostaglandin D2 Receptor 2 Regulates Hair Regression
This study suggests that the expression of the DP2 receptor is higher in balding scalp cells and that its knockdown could inhibit the transition to the catagen phase in cultured human hair follicles, potentially counteracting hair growth inhibition associated with male pattern baldness.
research Prostanoid receptors in anagen human hair follicles
This study found that prostaglandin receptors are widely expressed in hair follicles, suggesting a complex network of prostanoid pathways involved in hair growth control.
research Reduced levels of 5-α reductase 2 in adult prostate tissue and implications for BPH therapy
This study found that methylation of the 5-AR 2 promoter region may lead to low or absent 5-AR 2 protein expression in some human adult prostate tissues.
research Abstract 5561: 20(S)-Protopanaxadiol-aglycone downregulates full-length and ligand-independent splice variants of androgen receptor
In this study, ginsenoside 20(S)-protopanaxadiol-aglycone (PPD) was shown to downregulate androgen receptor expression and inhibit tumor growth in prostate cancer cells.
research 5α-reductase isoenzymes mediate stress-exacerbated Tourette-like responses in animal models
This study found that in animal models of Tourette syndrome, stress-induced tic-like behaviors and sensorimotor gating deficits were reduced by finasteride, suggesting a role for neurosteroids like allopregnanolone.
