Olfactory receptor-78 (Olfr-78) is a recently identified G protein-coupled receptor activated by
short-chain fatty acids acetate and propionate. A suggested role for this receptor exists in the …

Olfactory receptors (ORs) that bind odorous ligands are the largest family of G-protein-
coupled receptors. In the olfactory epithelium, approximately 400 and 1,100 members are …

Expression and function of odorant receptors (ORs), which account for more than 50% of G
protein–coupled receptors, are being increasingly reported in nonolfactory sites. However …

The precise regulation of digestive and other physiological processes in the gastrointestinal
tract in accordance with the food ingested requires continuous monitoring of the luminal …

The analysis and functional characterization of ectopically expressed human olfactory
receptors (ORs) is becoming increasingly important, as many ORs have been identified in …

Olfactory receptors are G protein-coupled receptors that mediate olfactory chemosensation
and serve as chemosensors in other tissues. We find that Olfr78, an olfactory receptor …

Olfactory receptors have been detected in extraolfactory organs. Olfactory receptor 78
(Olfr78), proposed to respond to small organic acids, is widely expressed in the kidney …

The olfactory receptor Olfr78 (prostate-specific G protein-coupled receptor PSGR) is a
member of the G protein-coupled receptor family mediating olfactory chemosensation, but it …

Olfactory receptors are primarily expressed in nasal olfactory epithelium, but these receptors
are also ectopically expressed in diverse tissues. In this study, we investigated the biological …

The kidney uses specialized G protein-coupled receptors, including olfactory receptors
(ORs), to act as sensors of molecules and metabolites. In the present study, we cloned and …
