Published in 2023 at "British journal of pharmacology"

DOI: 10.1111/bph.16053

Abstract: Primary cilia are non-motile antennae-like structures responsible for sensing environmental changes in most mammalian cells. Ciliary signalling is largely mediated by the Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) pathway, which acts as a master regulator of ciliary protein… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Endocrine journal"

DOI: 10.1507/endocrj.ej16-0338

Abstract: Pancreatic islets express high levels of the orphan G-protein coupled receptor C5C (GPRC5C), the function of which remains to be established. Here we have examined the role of GPRC5C in the regulation of insulin secretion… read more here.
