  • Therapeutic validation of an orphan G proteincoupled receptor

    Historically, ligands for GPCRs have been identified before their receptor counterparts. With the cloning revolution, several unidentified receptors have been found and were labelled as “orphan GPR84 is a Gi‐coupled class A GPCR mainly expressed in immune cells and microglia in the brain (Wojciechowicz and 2. which ligands can be used as tool compounds to study the function and biology of this receptor CXCR2 and the adenosine A3 receptor (Gaidarov et al., 2018).

  • G protein-coupled receptor signaling: transducers and effectors

    October 2022 "G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are of considerable interest due to their importance and mechanism of action, there is a greater understanding of how effector molecules interact with a receptor relevance in the cardiovascular system of the three most important GPCR signaling effectors: heterotrimeric G proteins, GPCR kinases (GRKs), and β-arrestins. We will first summarize their prominent roles in GPCR pharmacology before transitioning into less well-explored

  • Phospholipid Scrambling by G Protein-Coupled Receptors

    The transport proteins that facilitate this process are classified as pump-like flippases and floppases Unexpectedly, Class A G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), a large class of signaling proteins exemplified by the visual receptor rhodopsin and its apoprotein opsin, are constitutively active as scramblases

  • G protein coupled receptor transcripts in human immune cells and platelets

    < GPCR News < GPCRs in Oncology and Immunology G protein coupled receptor transcripts in human immune cells and platelets Published date September 27, 2024 Abstract "G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) On average, the white cells studied expressed 160 receptor mRNAs (range, 123-206). Some, but far from all, of the receptors we found have been detected earlier. We believe our data should stimulate studies of receptor function and contribute to drug development.
