Up-Regulation - Preferred
Concept UI M0024283
Scope note A positive regulatory effect on physiological processes at the molecular, cellular, or systemic level. At the molecular level, the major regulatory sites include membrane receptors, genes (GENE EXPRESSION REGULATION), mRNAs (RNA, MESSENGER), and proteins.
Preferred term Up-Regulation
Entry term(s) Up Regulation

Receptor Up-Regulation - Narrower
Concept UI M0374376
Scope note A positive regulatory process that increases ligand-receptor interactions. Increase in receptor binding after ligand exposure can result from receptor activation, aggregation, increase in half-life, and/or an increase in gene expression that leads to de novo receptor synthesis.
Preferred term Receptor Up-Regulation
