Free fatty acid receptor 2 between the pathways activated by FFAR2 agonists in human cells and the equivalent murine counterparts have been observed. FFAR2 may interact with FFAR3 to form a FFAR2-FFAR3 receptor heteromer with signalling that is distinct from the parent homomers. Free fatty acid receptor 2 Free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFAR2) is a G-protein coupled receptor encoded by the FFAR2 gene. FFAR2 mRNA is expressed in adipose tissue, pancreas, spleen, lymph nodes, bone marrow, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. FFAR2 transcription is regulated by the XBP1 transcription factor which binds to the core promoter. Mouse studies utilizing Ffar2 gene deletions have implicated
Soft-tissue sarcoma symptoms are uneven posture, pain in the trapezius muscle, and cervical inflexibility [difficulty in turning the head]. The most common site to which soft-tissue sarcoma spreads is the lungs. In general, treatment for soft-tissue sarcomas depends on the stage of the cancer. The stage of the sarcoma is based on the size and grade of the tumor, and whether the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes or other parts of the body (metastasized). Treatment options for soft-tissue sarcomas include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. Soft-tissue sarcomas are relatively uncommon cancers. They account for less than 1% of all new
