Specificity of porcine calcitonin receptor and calcitonin receptor-like receptor in the presence of receptor-activity-modifying proteins.
Adrenomedullin (AM), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), amylin (AMY) and calcitonin (CT) are members of the CGRP/CT superfamily of peptides. Among them, AM and CGRP are reported to share a core receptor, the calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR), and the specificity of the CRLR is determined by the expression levels of receptor-activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs). In the case of AMY, co...
متن کاملLymphatic deletion of calcitonin receptor-like receptor exacerbates intestinal inflammation.
Lymphatics play a critical role in maintaining gastrointestinal homeostasis and in the absorption of dietary lipids, yet their roles in intestinal inflammation remain elusive. Given the increasing prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease, we investigated whether lymphatic vessels contribute to, or may be causative of, disease progression. We generated a mouse model with temporal and spatial del...
متن کاملCalcitonin receptor-like receptor guides arterial differentiation in zebrafish.
The calcitonin receptor-like receptor (crlr) is a major endothelial cell receptor for adrenomedullin, a peptide vasodilator involved in cardiovascular development, homeostasis, and disease. Here, we used the zebrafish (Danio rerio) model to characterize the role of crlr in vascular development. Crlr is expressed within somites from the 4- to the 13-somite stage and by arterial progenitors and a...
متن کاملCalcitonin receptor-like receptor is expressed on gastrointestinal immune cells.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Pharmacological and morphological studies suggest that the gut mucosal immune system and local neuropeptide-containing neurones interact. We aimed to determine whether gut immune cells are targets for calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which has potent immune regulatory properties. METHODS Using density gradient centrifugation, rat lamina propria mononuclear cells (LP-MNC...
متن کاملDownregulation of calcitonin receptor mRNA expression by calcitonin during human osteoclast-like cell differentiation.
Calcitonin inhibits both osteoclast formation and bone resorption, and is a primary treatment for patients with hypercalcemia and increased bone turnover. However, the clinical utility of calcitonin is limited because patients become refractory to calcitonin after several days (the calcitonin "escape phenomenon"). The molecular basis for calcitonin "escape" is unclear. To determine the regulato...
