Most adhesion GPCRs undergo autoproteolytic cleavage during receptor biosynthesis, resulting in non-covalently bound N- and C-terminal fragments (NTF and CTF) that remain associated during receptor trafficking to the plasma membrane. While substantial evidence supports increased G protein signaling when just the CTF is expressed, there is an ongoing debate about whether NTF removal is required to initiate signaling in the context of the wild-type receptor. Here, we use adhesion GPCR latrophilin-3 (ADGRL3) as a model receptor to investigate tethered agonist-mediated activation.

Freshwater ecosystems are highly biodiverse and important for livelihoods and economic development, but are under substantial stress. To date, comprehensive global assessments of extinction risk have not included any speciose groups primarily living in freshwaters. Consequently, data from predominantly terrestrial tetrapods are used to guide environmental policy and conservation prioritization, whereas recent proposals for target setting in freshwaters use abiotic factors.

Objectives: Knowledge about the long-term course and prognosis of persistent somatic symptoms (PSS) is important to improve clinical decision-making and guidance for patients with PSS. Therefore, we aimed to: (1) identify distinct 5-year trajectories of symptom severity, physical and mental functioning in adult patients with PSS and (2) explore patient characteristics associated with these trajectories.
Design: We used longitudinal data (seven measurements over a 5-year period) of the PROSPECTS study: a prospective cohort of adult patients with PSS.

Background: Some chiropractors use spinal x-rays to inform care, but the relationship between radiographic findings and outcomes is unclear. This study examined the association between radiographic findings and 30% improvement in back-related disability in older adults after receiving 12 weeks of chiropractic spinal manipulation and home exercise instruction.
Methods: This IRB-approved secondary analysis used randomized trial data of community-dwelling adults age ≥ 65 with chronic spinal pain and disability.
