- In vivo metabolic effects after acute activation of skeletal muscle G s signaling
Methods: To address this question, we studied mice that express a Gs-coupled designer G protein-coupled receptor two Gs-coupled GPCRs that are endogenously expressed by SKM at relatively high levels (β2-adrenergic receptor and CRF2 receptor) and studied the acute metabolic effects of activating these receptors in vivo by The acute metabolic effects following agonist activation of β2-adrenergic and, potentially, CRF2 receptors impact on whole-body glucose homeostasis, most likely due to the fact that these receptors are also

- GPCR voltage dependence controls neuronal plasticity and behavior
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a paramount role in diverse brain functions. This voltage dependent potentiation is abolished in mutant animals expressing a voltage independent receptor Depolarization alone, without a muscarinic agonist, results in a nicotinic ionotropic receptor potentiation that is mediated by muscarinic receptor voltage dependency. Finally, muscarinic receptor voltage independence causes a strong behavioral effect of increased odor
