Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18256758 Sharp inhibition of apoptosis and changes in the levels of cell proliferation in tumor cells were paralleled by decreased expression of peripheral benzodiazepine receptor in patients with squamous cell carcinoma & skin melanoma.
11304832 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
16511838 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
18158327 These findings reveal a previously unidentified pathway of the membrane integration of MOM proteins with multiple TMSs of the PBR.
17561806 TSPO is located in mitochondrial membranes of HT-29 and reveal that its activation induces a rise in cytosolic Ca(2+), leading to the stimulation of Cl(-) secretion.
16919618 Our results showed an up-regulation of peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PBR) in platelets of FM patients, and this seems to be related to the severity of fibromyalgic symptoms.
16511838 Study provides new and important evidence that variation in the PBR gene influences susceptibility to panic disorder.
16868661 the intensity and extent of staining for PBR had a strong direct correlation with the grade of malignancy of the tumor, along with proliferative and apoptotic indices. The highest expression of PBR was in glioblastomas grade IV.
15648546 Our results represent first evidence of PBRs in parathyroid glands and suggest for them a role in influencing PTH release. A clear trend of PBR up-regulation in parathyroid adenoma was also found.
15473257 our results supported the hypothesis that PBR controls T-cell maturation and suggested mechanisms through which PBR may regulate thymocyte-positive selection.
