The receptors are ligand binding factors of type 1, 2 or 3 and protein-molecules that receive chemical-signals from outside a cell
When such chemical-signals couple or bind to a receptor, they cause some form of cellular/tissue-response, e.g
a change in the electrical-activity of a cell
In this sense, am olfactory receptor is a protein-molecule that recognizes and responds to endogenous-chemical signals, chemokinesor cytokines e.g
an acetylcholine-receptor recognizes and responds to its endogenous-ligand, acetylcholine
However, sometimes in pharmacology, the term is also used to include other proteins that are drug-targets, such as enzymes, transporters and ion-channels.
Test
ELISA Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays Code 90320007 SNOMED,Mouse or mice from the Mus musculus species are used for production of mouse monoclonal antibodies or mabs and as research model for humans in your lab
Mouse are mature after 40 days for females and 55 days for males
The female mice are pregnant only 20 days and can give birth to 10 litters of 6-8 mice a year
Transgenic, knock-out, congenic and inbread strains are known for C57BL/6, A/J, BALB/c, SCID while the CD-1 is outbred as strain.
Gene
Human or mouse Leptin (from Greek λεπτός leptos, "thin") the "satiety hormone", is a hormone made by adipose cells that helps to regulate energy balance by inhibiting hunger
Leptin is opposed by the actions of the hormone ghrelin, the "hunger hormone"
Both hormones act on receptors in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus to regulate appetite to achieve energy homeostasis
ELISA kits and peptides and antibodies are available.
