The CRF 2 receptor is a multi-pass membrane protein with a transmembrane domain composed of seven helices arranged in a V-shape. CRF 2 receptors are activated by two structurally similar peptides, urocortin II , and urocortin III , as well as CRH.
Corticotropin-releasing factor family, CRF family is a family of related neuropeptides in vertebrates. This family includes corticotropin-releasing hormone (also known as CRF), urotensin -I, urocortin , and sauvagine .
Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) (also known as corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) or corticoliberin; corticotropin may also be spelled corticotrophin) is a peptide hormone involved in stress responses. It is a releasing hormone that belongs to corticotropin-releasing factor family. In humans, it is encoded by the CRH gene. [5]
A case report form (or CRF) is a paper or electronic questionnaire specifically used in clinical trial research. [1] The case report form is the tool used by the sponsor of the clinical trial to collect data from each participating patient.
Corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 1 (CRHR1) is a protein, also known as CRF 1, with the latter (CRF 1) now being the IUPHAR-recommended name. [4] In humans, CRF 1 is encoded by the CRHR1 gene at region 17q21.31, beside micrototubule-associated protein tau MAPT. [5] [6]
A Corticotropin-releasing hormone antagonist (CRH antagonist) is a specific type of receptor antagonist that blocks the receptor sites for corticotropin-releasing hormone, also known as corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), which synchronizes the behavioral, endocrine, autonomic, and immune responses to stress by controlling the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis). [1]
Christian Relief Fund (CRF) is a non-profit organization in Amarillo, Texas, focused on bringing relief to orphans and children in poverty. Through child sponsorship and relief programs, CRF provides food, clean water, education, spiritual training, healthcare, and disaster relief worldwide.
