DOI: 10.1161/circresaha.122.320976
Abstract: Rationale: Hypertension is a common and serious adverse effect of calcineurin inhibitors, including cyclosporine and tacrolimus (FK506). Although increased sympathetic nerve discharges are associated with calcineurin inhibitor–induced hypertension, the sources of excess sympathetic outflow and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1530/jme-24-0056
Abstract: Receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs) modulate the expression and activity of numerous G protein-coupled receptors, primarily those within class B1. These receptors have important physiological roles, including in the regulation of food intake, energy metabolism, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232416035
Abstract: Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a key component of migraine pathophysiology, yielding effective migraine therapeutics. CGRP receptors contain a core accessory protein subunit: receptor activity-modifying protein 1 (RAMP1). Understanding of RAMP1 expression is incomplete, partly… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.25808
Abstract: Engineering light-sensitivity into proteins has wide ranging applications in molecular studies and neuroscience. Commonly used tethered photoswitchable ligands, however, require solvent-accessible protein labeling, face structural constrains, and are bulky. Here, we designed a set of… read more here.
