Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) also known as Folate hydrolase 1 (FOLH1), Folylpoly-gamma-glutamate carboxypeptidase (FGCP), Glutamate carboxypeptidase 2 (GCP2), N-acetylated-alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase I (NAALAD1), is a type II membrane glycoprotein that is expressed in prostate tissue and to a lesser extent in the peripheral and central nervous system, small intestinal, and salivary gland tissues. PSMA has both folate hydrolase and N-acetylated-alpha-linked-acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase) activity and has a preference for tri-alpha-glutamate peptides. The catalytic activity of PSMA involves the release of unsubstituted C-terminal glutamyl residues, typically from Ac-Asp-Glu or folylpoly-gamma-glutamates. PSMA is used as a diagnostic and prognostic indicator of prostate cancer, and as a possible marker for various neurological disorders such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, and Huntington’s disease.

Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) is the most important endocrine regulator of calcium and phosphorus con- centration in extracellular fluid. Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) is secreted from cells of the parathyroid glands and finds Parathyroid Hormone’s major target cells in bone and kidney. Like most other protein hormones, Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) is synthesized as a preprohormone. After intracellular processing, the mature hormone is packaged within the Golgi into secretory vesicles, the secreted into blood by exocytosis. Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) is secreted as a linear protein of 84 amino acids. Recombinant Human Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 84 amino acids.

Polypeptide hormones secreted by the parathyroid glands, which promote release of calcium from bone to extracellular fluid by activating osteoblasts and inhibiting osteoclasts, indirectly promote increased intestinal absorption of calcium, and promote renal tubular reabsorption of calcium and increased renal excretion of phosphates. It is a major regulator of bone metabolism. Secretion of parathyroid hormone increases when the level of calcium in the extracellular fluid is low. Its action is opposed by calcitonin.

PVR is a Type I transmembrane glycoprotein in the immunoglobulin superfamily. Commonly known as Poliovirus Receptor (PVR) due to its involvement in the cellular poliovirus infection in primates. PVR’s normal cellular function is in the establishment of intercellular adherens junctions between epithelial cells. PVR/CD155 was originally isolated based on its ability to mediate polio virus attachment to host cells. The full length (or PVR alpha isoform) is synthesized as a 417 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 20aa signal sequence, a 323aa extracellular region, a 24aa TM segment and a 50aa cytoplasmic tail. PVR binds other molecules including Vitronectin, Nectin-3, DNAM-1/CD226, CD96, and TIGIT but does not bind homotypically. PVR is up-regulated on endothelial cells by IFN-gamma and is highly expressed on immature thymocytes, lymph node dendritic cells, and tumor cells of epithelial and neuronal origin.

CCL5 or RANTES (acronym for Regulated upon Activation, Normal T cell Expressed and presumably Secreted), was initially discovered by subtractive hybridization as a transcript expressed in T cells but not B cells. Eosinophilchemotactic activities released by thrombinstimulated human platelets have also been purified and found to be identical to RANTES. Besides T cells and platelets, RANTES has been reported to be produced by renal tubular epithelium, synovial fibroblasts and selected tumor cells.

Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5(CCL5), also known as RANTES (Regulated upon activation, Normal T cell Expressed and presumable Secreted) is a CC-chemokine that can signal through the CCR1, CCR3, CCR5 and US28 (cytomegalovirus receptor) receptors. RANTES is chemotactic for T cells, eosinophils, and basophils, and plays an active role in recruiting leukocytes in inflammatory sites. With the help of specific cytokines (i.e., IL-2 and IFN-γ) that are released by T cells, RANTES induces the proliferation and activation of certain natural-killer (NK) cells to form CHAK (CC-Chemokine-activated killer) cells. RANTES is also an HIV-suppressive factor released from CD8+ T cells. This chemokine has been localized to chromosome 17 in humans. It has the capability to inhibit certain strains of HIV-1, HIV-2 and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV).

The properties of retinol binding protein is the transport carrier of vitamin A in the plasma. Human-retinol binding protein is a single-chain polypeptide with a molecular weight of approximately 21000 and one binding site for retinol and other forms of vitamin A. In addition, compounds related to retinol, such as retinal, retinoic acid, retinyl esters and geometric isomers of retinol and of retinal were evaluated for their ability to bind to this protein. In plasma, RBP4-retinol forms a complex with transthyretin (TTR), also known as thyroxine-binding protein and prealbumin. Defects in RBP4 cause retinol-binding protein deficiency, which affects night vision.

ROR1 (Receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1), also known as neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor-related 1 (NTRKR1), is a member of the ROR family within the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) superfamily. Two ROR family members (ROR1 and ROR2) have been identified and are characterized by the intracellular tyrosine kinase domains, highly related to those of the Trk-family receptor tyrosine kinases, and by the extracellular Frizzled-like cysteine-rich domains and kringle domains, which are common to receptors of the Wnt family members.

RSPO1 is a secreted protein, containing 2 FU(furin-like) repeats and 1 TSP type-1 domain and belonging to the R-spondin family. RSPO1 is required for the early development of gonads, regardless of sex. It has been found in mice only eleven days after fertilization. To induce cell proliferation, it acts synergistically with WNT4. They help stabilize β catenin, which activates downstream targets. RSPO1 is necessary in female sex development. It augments the WNT/β catenin pathway to oppose male sex development. In critical gonadal stages, between six and nine weeks after fertilization, the ovaries upregulate it while the testes downregulate it. RSPO1 can potentially aid in the treatment of mucositis, which is characterized by inflammation of the oral cavity. This unfortunate condition often accompanies chemotherapy and radiation in cancer patients with head and neck tumors.
