MRGX1 Polyclonal Antibody

There are four members (MRGX1-4) in the human MRGX familly. MRGX1 and MRGX2 receptors stimulate both G Alpha q- and G Alpha i -regulated pathways, while MRGX3 and MRGX4 receptors mainly activate G Alpha q-regulated pathways. G Alpha q proteins are involved in the calcium-signaling pathway downstream of the MRGX receptors. MRGX receptors are unique in that they are expressed in a subset of small dorsal root and trigeminal sensory neurons. Probably involved in the function of nociceptive neurons. May regulate nociceptor function and/or development, including the sensation or modulation of pain. Potently activated by enkephalins including BAM22 (bovine adrenal medulla peptide 22) and BAM (8-22) . BAM22 is the most potent compound and evoked a large and dose-dependent release of intracellular calcium in stably transfected cells. G (alpha) q proteins are involved in the calcium-signaling pathway.
