Since its discovery in 1975, we now have a wealth of knowledge relating to the biochemical, pharmacological and physiologic actions of thromboxane (TX) A2 and its related metabolites. These molecular insights have been ...
The human thromboxane (TX)A2 receptor (TP) gene encodes two TP isoforms, TPalpha and TP beta that are regulated by distinct promoters designated promoter (Prm) 1 and Prm3, respectively. Previous studies established that ...
In humans, TPα and TPβ isoforms of the thromboxane A2 receptor are transcriptionally regulated by distinct promoters, designated Prm1 and Prm3. Previous investigations identified two upstream repressor regions (URR) 1 and ...
In humans, thromboxane (TX) A2 signals through the TPα and TPβ isoforms of its G-protein coupled TXA2 receptor (TP) to mediate a host of (patho)physiologic responses. Herein, angio-associated migratory cell protein (AAMP) ...
Thromboxane (TX) A2 and prostaglandin (PG) D2 mediate opposing actions in platelets and in vascular and non-vascular smooth muscle. Here, we investigated the effects of stimulation of the PGD2 receptor (DP) on signaling ...
The human (h) TXA2 receptor (TP), a G protein-coupled receptor, exists as two isoforms, TPalpha and TPbeta, which arise by alternative mRNA splicing and differ exclusively in their carboxyl terminal cytoplasmic regions. ...
Thromboxane plays an essential role in haemostasis, regulating platelet aggregation and vessel tone. In humans, it signals through the TPalpha and TPbeta isoforms that are transcriptionally regulated by distinct promoters, ...
Thromboxane (TX) A2 is a potent stimulator of platelet activation/aggregation and smooth muscle contraction and contributes to a variety of pathologies within the vasculature. In this study, we investigated the mechanism ...
We have investigated the functional coupling of alpha and beta isoforms of the human thromboxane A2 receptor (TP) to Galpha16 and Galpha12 members of the Gq and G12 families of heterotrimeric G proteins in human embryonic ...
In humans, thromboxane (TX) A2 signals through the TPalpha and TPbeta isoforms of the TXA2 receptor that exhibit common and distinct roles. For example, Gq/phospholipase (PL)Cbeta signaling by TPalpha is directly inhibited ...
