TL;DR: A superfamily of regulatory proteins that include receptors for thyroid hormone and the vertebrate morphogen retinoic acid is identified, suggesting mechanisms underlying morphogenesis and homeostasis may be more ubiquitous than previously expected.

TL;DR: This research presents a new probabilistic procedure called ‘spot-spot analysis’ to characterize the response of the immune system to the presence of E.coli.

TL;DR: The historical links between the steroid and nonsteroid receptor signaling systems are established, the explosive development of the retinoid X receptor (RXR) heterodimer and orphan receptor family is charted, the impact of these discoveries on the authors' understanding of the mechanisms of hormonal signaling is explained, and emerging issues and implications are presented.

TL;DR: A pivotal role is suggested for PPARγ and its endogenous ligand in adipocyte development and glucose homeostasis and as a target for intervention in metabolic disorders.

TL;DR: The approach described here permits the application of recombinant DNA technology to analyses of complex neurobiological systems in the absence of prior structural or biological information.
