- Odorant receptors – a bit of smell for drug discovery
function and expression landscape Odorant receptors (ORs) belong to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR OR51E1 and OR51E2, initially assumed to be GPCRs only expressed in prostate tissue, play a role in prostate compounds, there has been a growing interest from the scientific community to target this class of GPCRs expression of ORs is generally more technically challenging compared with expression of nonolfactory GPCRs Check the original article at https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35999088/ #GPCR #DrGPCR#Ecosystem

- Allosteric ligands control the activation of a class C GPCR heterodimer by acting at the transmembra
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are among the most promising drug targets. Specifically controlling the activity of GPCR dimers with ligands is a good approach to clarify their This region corresponds to the sodium ion binding site in class A GPCRs that controls the basal state reveal the possibility of developing allosteric compounds able to specifically modulate the activity of GPCR
- β-arrestin1 promotes tauopathy by transducing GPCR signaling, disrupting microtubules and autophagy
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been shown to play integral roles in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis However, it is unclear how diverse GPCRs similarly affect Aβ and tau pathogenesis. GPCRs share a common mechanism of action via the β-arrestin scaffolding signaling complexes, which not only serve to desensitize GPCRs by internalization, but also mediate multiple downstream signaling events As signaling via the GPCRs, β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR), and metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2

- Chemical signaling regulates axon regeneration via the GPCR-Gqα pathway in Caenorhabditis elegans
demonstrate that the chemoreceptor genes, srg-36 and srg-37, which encode G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs Here, we show that SRG-36 and SRG-37 act as upstream GPCRs that activate EGL-30. SRG-36 and SRG-37 are GPCRs for the dauer-inducing ascaroside, ascr#5. Thus, ascaroside signaling promotes axon regeneration by activating the GPCR-Gqα pathway.
