Members of the superfamily of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR ... that stereochemistry and volume of the side chain of αV285 modulate efficacy of the response over a wide range.

and low-pressure volume receptors are located in the left atrium. Once the baroreceptor response is stimulated, AVP production increases in logarithmic fashion. Thus, the levels of AVP associated ...

When such a cell is activated by a viral infection, it can specialize in one of two ways: into a Th1 cell, which drives a more inflammation-heavy T killer cell response, or into a T follicular ...

Receptors on T-cells recognize antigens, or pieces of other cells that trigger an immune response, particularly antibodies. If the antigens are foreign, T-cells raise the alarm within the immune ...

Receptor variant influences dopamine response to alcohol Date: May 18, 2010 Source: NIH/National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism Summary: Researchers showed that human subjects with the ...

The 5-HT 2A receptor receives its encoded instruction from the HTR2A gene. The study revealed that proteins produced by EGR3, an early growth response gene, also were required for expression of ...

Taste, pain, or response to stress—nearly all essential functions in the human body are regulated by molecular switches called G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Researchers at the University ...
