Lung macrophages play a pivotal role in diseases like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Two types of macrophages—the white blood cells that defend the body by killing microbes, removing dead cells and ...

Molecular proximity is a governing principle of biology that is essential to normal and disease-related biochemical pathways. At the cell surface, protein–protein proximity regulates receptor ...

Cells have surface receptors that couple to proteins and other molecules to initiate or inhibit certain behaviors.

The internalization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is a key process limiting cell surface receptor activity, and possibly promoting their intracellular signaling. Dysregulation of this process ...

A research team of the University Medical Center Mainz has succeeded in observing for the first time how G protein-coupled receptors in living cells actually respond to activating substances. The ...
