There are several sets of receptors located in the head: eyes, nose, tongue, and throat.

This syndrome is caused by a mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor II, located on chromosome 10.

Calcium-sensing receptors located on parathyroid cells are activated when [Ca] is low.

Like many other biologically active substances, dopamine exerts its effects by binding to and activating receptors located on the surface of cells.

Some protein hormones also interact with intracellular receptors located in the cytoplasm or nucleus by an intracrine mechanism.

The neurotransmitter chemical then diffuses across to receptors located on the membrane of the target cell.

Plastic change also results from the alteration of the number of receptors located on a synapse.

Warm receptors located in the nose may then optimally detect outside sources of infrared radiation.

The stimulation of the mechanical receptors located in the gastric mucosa stimulates the vagus afferents.

IGS is caused by a mutation in the receptors located in the terminal portion of ileum.
