Abstract
The present invention identifies four new isoforms of human corticotropin releasing hormone receptor type 1 (CRH-R1e, 1f, 1g and 1h) and three new isoforms of mouse corticotropin releasing hormone receptor type 1 (mCRH-R1c, 1e and 1f). The data indicate that polymorphism of CRH-R1 expression is related to anatomic location, skin physiological or pathologic status, specific cell type, external stress (UV), and that cAMP dependent pathways and TPA may regulate CRH-R1.
