Warm and cold receptors play a part in sensing innocuous environmental temperature.

These receptors play a role in antinociception, or the relief of pain.

Recent research suggests that these receptors may play an important developmental role.

The cold receptors play an important part in the animal's sense of smell, telling wind direction.

As a consequence, nuclear receptors play key roles in both embryonic development and adult homeostasis.

As a result of its cellular distribution, this receptor plays a major role in controlling allergic responses.

This receptor may play an important role in regulation of the hair follicle cycle.

These receptors play a wide variety of roles in normal cell function and development due to their interactions with multiple ligands.

"This complex expression pattern indicated to us that the receptors were obviously playing an important role in bone development."

These newly discovered receptors may play a role in this organizing process.
