Published in 2020 at "Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/mgg3.1194

Abstract: Relaxin/relaxin family peptide receptor 1 (RXFP1) signaling is important for both normal physiology and disease. Strong preclinical evidence supports relaxin as a potent antifibrotic molecule. However, relaxin‐based therapy failed in clinical trial in patients with… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Process Biochemistry"

DOI: 10.1016/j.procbio.2018.03.022

Abstract: Abstract Relaxin family peptide receptor 3 (RXFP3) is an A-class G protein-coupled receptor. It is implicated in the regulation of food intake and stress response upon activation by the neuropeptide relaxin-3. So far, preparation of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-03465-7

Abstract: Relaxin family peptides perform a variety of biological functions by activating four G protein-coupled receptors, namely RXFP1–4. Among these receptors, RXFP3 lacks a specific natural or synthetic agonist at present. A previously designed chimeric R3/I5… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "British Journal of Pharmacology"

DOI: 10.1111/bph.13522

Abstract: Insulin‐like peptide 5 (INSL5) is a two‐chain, three‐disulfide‐bonded peptide of the insulin/relaxin superfamily, uniquely expressed in enteroendocrine L‐cells of the colon. It is the cognate ligand of relaxin family peptide RXFP4 receptor that is mainly… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "British Journal of Pharmacology"

DOI: 10.1111/bph.13684

Abstract: The human relaxin peptide family consists of seven cystine‐rich peptides, four of which are known to signal through relaxin family peptide receptors, RXFP1–4. As these peptides play a vital role physiologically and in various diseases,… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Pharmacology"

DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.826112

Abstract: G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) transduce extracellular stimuli into the cell interior and are thus centrally involved in almost all physiological-neuronal processes. This essential function and association with many diseases or pathological conditions explain why GPCRs… read more here.
