| basic FUNCTION
| stimulating gastrin release as well as other gastrointestinal hormones |
|
GRP and GRPR have important oncogenic properties beyond their established mitogenic functions  |
|
GRP-containing neurons in the paraventricular nucleus may be part of the hypothalamic signaling pathway controlling food intake and energy balance |
|
plays an important role in regulating tumor growth and migration |
|
communicates photic phase setting signals in the SCN (suprachiasmatic nucleus) by increasing neurophysiological activity of SCN neurons |
|
neuropeptide that acts through G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) involved in signal transmission in both central and peripheral nervous systems |
|
triggers neutrophil recruitment both indirectly, through macrophages, as well as directly, binding to GRPR in these cells |
|
has a selective effect over neutrophils in vivo, inducing their migration through activation of GRPR |
|
stimulate the proliferation and invasiveness of androgen-independent prostate carcinoma |
|
could function locally in the dorsal spinal cord in addition to its roles in DRG neurons |
|
GRP) is a regulatory peptide that acts through its receptor (GRPR) to regulate physiological functions in various organs |
|
neuropeptide that acts through G protein coupled receptors and is involved in signal transmission in both the central and peripheral nervous systems |
|
GRP and GRPR are relevant to the inflammatory response, being a potential therapeutic target several diseases are related to inflammation |
