A new map of the smell receptors inside the nose just overturned the textbook picture scientists have used for decades — the receptors cluster where no one said t…
For roughly 30 years, biology students have learned the same tidy diagram of the inside of the nose: four broad zones, each ...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are expressed on the surface of cells and regulate a range of important functions. Because they are involved in so many sensory and physiological processes, ...
Most of the cell types in your body appear in many places — for example, humans have photoreceptors throughout our nervous systems, not just our eyes. So it seems strange that taste receptors would ...
This new technique for studying cell receptors could have sweeping implications for drug development
Researchers created a tool capable of comprehensively mapping crucial interactions underlying drug efficacy in one superfamily of cell receptors. One in every three FDA-approved drugs targets a single ...
Different receptors respond to different neurotransmitters or hormones, such as adrenaline involved in the fight-or-flight response, or dopamine linked to reward and motivation. Both the receptors ...
Studies to be presented at the 2026 ASCO Annual Meeting examine GLP-1 receptor agonists in relation to cancer progression, ...
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are incretin analogues that promote glucose-mediated insulin release and are used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. GLP-1 receptor ...
Dan Berkowitz might never have noticed the phenomenon if not for the new lights. In 2012, Johns Hopkins University’s Berkowitz had just moved to a lab space where the lights were motion-activated, and ...
