Researchers have created new 3D maps of two melatonin receptors. The models can be used to help develop new treatments that not only improve sleep, but may also treat a variety of other conditions from diabetes to cancer.
Researchers have created the most detailed 3D structure to date of the brain receptor that binds and responds to the root of the marijuana high.
Researchers have uncovered a new and different way some odors are sensed in the 'olfactory necklace'.
Researchers use optogenetics to successfully switch specific G-protein coupled signalling pathways on and off.
Researchers report arginine methylation regulates dopamine signaling in human cells.
Researchers discovered the GPR3 protein could play an important role in reducing the generation of amyloid beta and in alleviating cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers deconstruct the vagus nerve.
Researchers gain a better understanding of the mGlu1 receptor which they believe to be a viable target for future medications to treat a number of brain disorders.
Researchers have developed a variant of the Mu opioid receptor which has several advantages for experimentation The variant can be grown in large quantities and is water soluble, allowing for experiments and applications which have previously been challenging.
Researchers analyze the atomic structure of two types of human serotonin receptors. Their findings could explain why some drugs, which interact with these receptors, occasionally have harmful effects.
Researchers discovered the CALHM1 channel protein releases ATP to make a neural taste connection.
