  1. Olfactory ensheathing glia

    Multiple issues orphan August 2010 context July 2010 context August 2010 confusing November 2010 Olfactory ensheathing glia OG is a type of radial glia found in the olfactory mucosa and olfactory bulb . They are also known as olfactory Schwann cell s because of their properties in assisting axonal regeneration . Olfactory glia are capable of Phagocytosis phagocytosing axonal debris in vivo wewetzer et al., 2005 . In vitro, they phagocytose bacteria olfactory glia express Lyz protein s are thought to play an important role in immunoprotection in the mucosa Vincent et al., 2005 , where neuron s are directly exposed to external environment. These glia express Glial marker s such as glial fibrillary acidic protein , s100, and p75, and radial glial markers such as nestin and vimentin . OG have been tested successfully in experimental axon regeneration in rat spinal cord injury models li et al., 2003 and are currently in the clinical trial phase. neuroscience stub Category Nervous system ...   more details

  1. Deep receptor

    Unreferenced date November 2006 Orphan date February 2009 A deep receptor is an element of the nervous system that is devoted to the reception of deep sensibility as opposed to tactile sensibility . A deep receptor furnishes information of what is happening in muscle , tendon s and joint s. They thus participate in proprioception .

  1. Thrombin receptor

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 There are three known thrombin receptors termed PAR1 , PAR3 and PAR4 PAR for protease activated receptor . These receptors are members of the 7 transmembrane g protein coupled family of Receptor biochemistry receptor s, however, their method of activation is unique. Thrombin , a serine protease , binds to and cleaves the extracellular N terminal domain of the receptor. A tethered ligand biochemistry ligand corresponding to the new N terminus , SFLLRN, is then unmasked, binding to the second extracellular loop of the receptor and activating it.

  1. Complement receptor

    Multiple issues technical August 2009 expert subject September 2008 refimprove September 2008 A complement receptor is a receptor biochemistry receptor of the complement system , a part of the mediated innate immune system . Complement receptors are responsible for detecting pathogen s by mechanisms not mediated by antibody antibodies . Complement activity is not antigen sensitive, but can be triggered by specific antigens. Therefore complement a group of proteins in the serum that help achieve phagocytosis and lysis of antigens is also part of the humoral immune system . Complement receptors Types include class wikitable CR Name Cluster of differentiation CD Complement receptor 1 CR1 CD35 Complement receptor 2 CR2 CD21 CR3 Macrophage 1 antigen or integrin alphaMbeta2 CD11b CD18 CR4 Integrin alphaXbeta2 or p150,95 CD11c CD18 C3a receptor C5a receptor CD88 Clinical significance Defects in these receptors can be associated with disease. ref name urlComplement Receptor Deficiency eMedicine Dermatology cite web url http emedicine.medscape.com article 1051238 overview title Complement Receptor Deficiency eMedicine Dermatology format work accessdate 2010 12 07 ref See also Immune system References Reflist External links MeshName Complement receptors Complement system Pattern recognition receptors Use dmy dates date September 2010 DEFAULTSORT Complement Receptor Category Complement system ...   more details
