A new study from MUSC Hollings Cancer Center researchers shows, for the first time, that a receptor called PPAR δ, or peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta, is an important player in a ...

N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are ligand-gated cation channels activated by glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter. These receptors are located mostly at excitatory synapses and ...

Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have determined the full-length structure of a blood pressure-regulating hormone receptor ...
