- The receptors for relaxin and INSL3, LGR7 and LGR8 are poorly internalised and do not recruit arrestins reflecting the sustained actions of relaxin in vivo (G Callander1, W Thomas2, R Bathgate1, (1) Howard Florey Institute, University of Melbourne VIC 3010. (2) Baker Heart Research Institute, Melbourne, VIC 8008).
