From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR), now properly known as BB2 [5] is a G protein-coupled receptor whose endogenous ligand is gastrin releasing peptide.[6] In humans it is highly expressed in the pancreas and is also expressed in the stomach, adrenal cortex and brain.[7]
Template:PBB Summary
The transcription factor CREB is a regulator of human GRP-R expression in colon cancer.[8]
