Abstract: A search of the public human genome database identified a human EST, GenBank accession number AW293249, which has high homology to known pufferfish urocortin sequences. The full length sequence was amplified from human genomic DNA and sequenced. Sequence homology comparisons of the novel sequence with human urocortin I and urocortin II revealed that the sequence encoded a novel human urocortin, which was designated urocortin III (UcnIII). While urocortin III does not have high affinity for either CRF-R1 or CRF-R2, the affinity for CRF-R2 is greater than the affinity for CRF-R1. Urocortin III is capable stimulating cyclic AMP production in cells expressing CRF-R2? or ?. Thus, the affinity is high enough that urocortin III could act as a native agonist of CRF-R2. However, it is also likely that urocortin III is a stronger agonist of a yet to b e identified receptor.

Abstract: A motor-vehicle door includes a door body composed of a door frame member and inner and outer door panels attached to opposite sides of the door frame member, and a window sash assembly connected to an upper part of the door frame member. The window sash assembly includes a sash body, a window panel vertically movably held in the sash body, and a window regulator mounted on a lower portion of the sash body for moving the window panel up and down and holding it in position. Since the window panel and the window regulator are assembled in the window sash assembly as an integral part of the window sash assembly, the motor-vehicle door having such window sash assembly is simple in construction and can be assembled easily, precisely and less costly. Methods of assembling the motor-vehicle door are also disclosed.
