Related Diseases

1.	Infections 01/01/2019 - "Both receptors were most often concomitantly expressed during infection, revealing that both pheromone-receptor systems are involved in the sexual cycle. " 01/01/2019 - "We also demonstrated that even with only one paired pheromone-pheromone receptor, the active b locus heterodimer triggered hyphal growth and infection."
2.	Coinfection 06/17/2010 - "Cell enlargement was stimulated by coinfection with strains of opposite mating type, and ste3aDelta pheromone receptor mutant strains had reduced cell enlargement. "
3.	Ganglion Cysts (Ganglion) 06/01/2006 - "We here report that a cluster of neurons, distinct from these two systems, located at the very tip of the mouse nose and called the Grüneberg ganglion expresses the mature olfactory-sensory neuron-specific marker olfactory marker protein (OMP), but is unlikely to express known odorant or pheromone receptors. "
4.	Genetic Translocation (Chromosomal Translocation) 10/01/2008 - "In this model, the unlinked homeodomain (HD) transcription factor and pheromone/receptor tetrapolar loci acquired additional sex-related genes and then fused via chromosomal translocation, forming an intermediate transitional mating system (which we term tripolar), which then underwent recombination and gene conversion to fashion the extant bipolar MAT alleles. "
5.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 01/01/2014 - "Here, we show that pheromones can act as physiological inducers of CRT exposure in yeast cells, thereby facilitating the formation of mating conjugates, and that a large-spectrum inhibitor of G protein-coupled receptors (which resemble the yeast pheromone receptor) prevents CRT exposure in human cancer cells exposed to MTX.
