Dopaminergic Pathways and Receptor Physiology
pharmacological responses is the formation of a complex between the ligand (or drug or molecule) and its site of action (Taylor & Insel, 1990). Competitive binding experiments ascertain how specific the interaction is between a ligand and its binding site by examining the ability of various compounds to compete with a radiolabelled reference probe for the site. The more potently a drug binds to...
متن کاملPhysiology of Receptor-Mediated Lymphocyte Apoptosis.
Apoptosis (programmed cell death), a physiological mechanism eliminating abundant and potentially harmful cells, is triggered by a variety of stimuli including activation of distinct receptors. The machinery mediating CD95 receptor-induced apoptosis includes caspases, ceramide, kinases, Ras and Rac, formation of O(2)(-), mitochondrial proteins, inhibition of K(+) channels, activation of Cl(-) c...
متن کاملCalcium-Sensing Receptor in Cardiac Physiology
Calcium is a crucial signal molecule in the cardiovascular system. Calcium (Ca 2+ ) acts as a second messenger via changes in intracellular Ca 2+ levels through the actions of calcium channels and pumps. However, it is now well known that calcium may also be an extracellular first messenger through a G-protein-coupled receptor that senses extracellular Ca 2+ concentration, the calcium-sensing r...
متن کاملTransduction physiology of olfactory receptor cilia.
Electro-olfactograms (EOGs) evoked by 8 odorants from frog olfactory epithelia during ciliary regrowth and during epithelial regeneration were analyzed. During ciliary regrowth following detergent-induced ciliary removal, EOG amplitudes initially increase proportionately with ciliary length. EOGs reach maximal amplitudes after 2 days of growth, when cilia are 40 micron long. Therefore olfactory...
متن کاملEquine glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor physiology
Background Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) is associated with insulin dysregulation, which often manifests as post-prandial hyperinsulinemia. Circulating concentrations of the incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) correlate with an increased insulin response to carbohydrate intake in animals with EMS. However, little is known about the equine GLP-1 receptor (eGLP-1R), or whether GLP...
