PARs: Nomenclature, receptor-activating or disarming proteinases, agonists/antagonists and signaling pathways

The table lists the four PARs according to their gene nomenclature, along with the PAR-regulating enzymes, PAR agonists, PAR antagonists, radioligand binding probes, and the G proteins that the PARs activate.
