We found that Adgra1 is highly and exclusively expressed in the brain, suggesting that Adgra1 may be open field, elevated plus maze, and light-dark box tests, with normal depression levels in the tail-suspension Together, our findings reveal an important suppressive role of ADGRA1 in anxiety control and synaptic

- Endosomal parathyroid hormone receptor signaling
that stimulation of heterotrimeric G protein signaling upon ligand binding occurs solely at the cell surface In this model, GPCR signaling is turned-off by receptor phosphorylation via GPCR kinases (GRKs) and subsequent Internalized receptors can then recycle back to the cell surface or be trafficked to lysosomes for degradation This is the case for the parathyroid hormone (PTH) type 1 receptor (PTHR), which engages on sustained

- Adenosine receptor signalling in Alzheimer's disease
Emerging evidence suggests adenosine G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are promising therapeutic targets In this review, we provide an accessible summary of the literature on Alzheimer's disease and the therapeutic strategies, including allosterism and the targeting of oligomers, which may increase drug discovery success

- Activation of GPR183 by 7 α,25-Dihydroxycholesterol Induces Behavioral Hypersensitivity through...
Further investigation of the signaling pathways downstream of GPR183 is needed to support the development In support, we found that the development of 7α,25-OHC/GPR183-induced mechano-allodynia was associated
- N-Acyl Amides from Neisseria meningitidis and Their Role in Sphingosine Receptor Signaling
Both groups of metabolites suppress anti-inflammatory interleukin-10 signaling in human macrophage cell types, but they also suppress the pro-inflammatory interleukin-17A+ population in TH 17-differentiated
