Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) poses a significant clinical challenge due to its aggressive nature and limited therapeutic options. Recent research underscores the pivotal role of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in shaping the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) within TNBC. This review focuses on four principal GPCRs-chemokine receptors, sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors, prostaglandin E2 receptors, and lactate receptors-that have garnered substantial attention in TNBC studies.

Background This study investigated the association between prostaglandins, vitamin D levels, and their potential role in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Previous research has shown prostaglandins' stimulatory effects and vitamin D's inhibitory effects in various malignancies. Methods This cross-sectional study evaluated 54 AML patients at Shahid Ghazi Center of Imam Reza Hospital in Tabriz.

Angiotensin II is well known to have an important influence on blood pressure, mediated via the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R), and more recent studies have shown that angiotensin II may play an important additional role in eliciting pain via a distinct action at the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R). Signalling pathways that link activation of AT2R to a sensation of pain are, however, incompletely understood. Here we use rodent inflammatory pain models to confirm that selective activation of AT2R triggers aversive responses, and that these are abolished by either antagonism or genetic deletion of AT2R.

Introduction: Prostaglandins (PG) are important regulators of the myometrial contractility in mammals. Endometrosis, a condition characterized by morphological changes in the equine endometrium, also affects endometrial secretory function. However, it remains unclear whether and how endometrosis affects myometrial function.

Dental caries with invasion and infection by microorganisms may induce pulpitis and intolerable pain. L-Ala-γ-D-Glu-mDAP (TriDAP) is a DAP-comprising muramyl tripeptide and a peptidoglycan degradation product found in gram-negative pulpal pathogens. TriDAP activates nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain1/2 (NOD1/NOD2) and induces tissue inflammatory responses.
