COLLOCATIONS FROM CORPUS

■ NOUN

antagonist

The possible therapeutic effect of a specific receptor antagonist in inflammatory bowel disease remains to be evaluated.

Such effects may be blocked by administration of histamine receptor antagonists , such as cimetidine.

Combination of a histamine H 2 receptor antagonist with a prokinetic agent may therefore provide an alternative treatment for reflux oesophagitis.

These results are similar to those reported in maintenance trials of H 2 receptor antagonists analysed by the same method.

Those taking H 2 receptor antagonists stopped this medication at least one week before endoscopy.

Also, cisapride produces healing rates of up to 50% in erosive oesophagitis that are comparable with histamine H 2 receptor antagonists .

All patients were treated with H2 receptor antagonists after the procedure.

A specific leukotriene receptor antagonist awaits development.

egf

The well described fall in EGF receptor numbers after partial hepatectomy was confirmed.

The EGF receptor is a product of the erb-B oncogene.

Discussion A substantial body of evidence implicates events at the EGF receptor as the start of hepatocyte proliferation after partial hepatectomy.

Ligand binding to the EGF receptor therefore seems to be integrally associated with liver cell proliferation.

molecule

The receptor molecules are conduits for information, with one end outside the cell and the other inside.

When the right neurotransmitter docks with the appropriate receptor , the physical structure of the receptor molecule changes.

More messages make them more active, and more likely to add phosphate to receptor molecules .

The neurotransmitter sticks to the receptor molecule , and together they are able to open a pore in the cell membrane.

The result is fewer receptor molecules .

There are at least two types of postsynaptic channels that open up when glutamate binds to their receptor molecules .

Before a virus can infect an animal cell it must first bind to specific receptor molecules embedded in the cell membrane.

nmda

Compelling evidence that the NMDA receptor performs this function is reviewed in the next section.

It is this that allows the NMDA receptor to behave as a molecular coincidence detector.

EXAMPLES FROM CORPUS

A phosphorylated receptor is an unhappy receptor.

Binding sites for ET-1 and its receptor mRNA are found in the airways and pulmonary vasculature of various species including man.

Drugs which interact with the other types of glutamate receptor are without effect.

More messages make them more active, and more likely to add phosphate to receptor molecules.

The possible therapeutic effect of a specific receptor antagonist in inflammatory bowel disease remains to be evaluated.

The solid outline encloses the area within which we measured each individual receptor .

There are at least two types of postsynaptic channels that open up when glutamate binds to their receptor molecules.

This receptor corresponds to the cloned family GluR1-4 47.
