Localization of the domains involved in ligand binding and activation of the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor.

abstract：:Previous studies have demonstrated that uterine progesterone (P) receptor is under dual hormonal control; estradiol (E2) induces the synthesis of cytosolic P receptor, and P induces the loss of its own receptor and antagonizes E2-induced P receptor replenishment. The objective of this study was to examine the contribu...
