Abstract:: ... Estrogens are important for bi-directional neuroendocrine-immune interaction. They act via nuclear estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ) and/or G-protein coupled receptor - GPR30.We found expression of ERα, ERβ and GPR30 in carp lymphoid tissues and head kidney monocytes/macrophages, neutrophils and lymphocytes. Interestingly, ERβ is also expressed in some head kidney lymphocytes but not in naive PBLs. ...

Abstract:: ... Accumulating evidence supports the crucial role intestinal microbiota and their metabolites play in the homeostasis of organisms. An important class of metabolites that have been shown to affect the immune system are short chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These SCFAs can affect the host cells via passive diffusion or via ligation to receptors, among others G-protein coupled receptor (GPR) 41 and 43. GPR ...

Subject:: G-protein coupled receptors; Mus musculus; Rattus norvegicus; chemokines; genetic variation; immune response; ligands; mice; models
Abstract:: ... The chemokine ligand XCL1 plays critical roles in immune responses with diverse physiological and pathological implications through interactions with a cognate G protein-coupled receptor XCR1. To shed insight into their versatile nature, we analyzed genetic variations of XCL1 and XCR1 in murine rodents, including commonly-used model organisms Mus musculus (house mouse) and Rattus norvegicus (Norwa ...

Abstract:: ... Opioid receptors (OR) are a group of G protein-coupled receptors with opioids as ligands, which play an important role in triggering the second messengers to modulate immune response in vertebrate immunocytes. In the present study, the full length cDNA of a homologue of δ-opioid receptor (DOR) for [Met5]-enkaphalin was cloned from oyster Crassostrea gigas (designated as CgDOR), which was 1104 bp e ...

Abstract:: ... Knowledge about how Eriocheir sinensis interacts with microorganisms in its ambient environment is still lacking. Using RNA-Seq, we determined the most conserved genes and pathways compared with other animals and detected highly-induced immune genes in E. sinensis hemocytes post-in vivo challenge with different microbial derivatives. In total, 33.2 million high-quality reads were generated and ass ...

Abstract:: ... Tyramine (TA), a neuroactive chemical, plays various important physiological roles in insects by activating distinct G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In this study, we investigated the effects of by pharmacological injection of TA on immune resistance regulation and its signal pathway in white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Results showed significant increases in the total haemocyte count (THC), ...
