Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptors and p-adrenergic receptors were investigated in rat Harderian gland membranes using '251-VIP and 125I-cyanopindolol(125I-CYP), respectively, as ligands. The receptor bindings were rapid, reversible, saturable, specific, and dependent on time, temperature
In addition to the brain and pituitary gland, the corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) system is expressed in peripheral tissues. In this study we characterize the expression of CRF, urocortins (UCN1, UCN2, and UCN3), and their receptors (CRFR1 and CRFR2) in osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthr
Proline-specific dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP IV) is an established enzyme known to degrade neuropeptides and peptide hormones in vertebrate tissues. DPP IV cleaves peptides at the Pro2 residue. Because several neuropeptides of the cockroach Leucophaea maderae, such as LemTRP-1 (APSGFLGVRamide), are po
