- PI(4,5)P 2-stimulated positive feedback drives the recruitment of Dishevelled to Frizzled in Wnt-β-c
the affinity of Fzd for Dvl was not affected by Wnt ligands, in contrast to other members of the GPCR superfamily Our findings suggest a positive feedback loop in which Wnt-stimulated local PI(4,5)P2 production enhances Dvl recruitment and further PI(4,5)P2 production to support Dvl polymerization, LRP5/6 phosphorylation

TMEM97 are involved in the internalization of Hst1, while only CME and S2R/TMEM97 are critical for its subcellular
- Platelets in the NETworks interweaving inflammation and thrombosis
Research over the past years has provided a substantial body of evidence demonstrating that platelets The surface expression of pattern recognition receptors, such as TLR2 and TLR4, provides platelets with platelet interactions with neutrophils enhance neutrophil activation and are often crucial to induce a sufficient The negatively charged DNA within NETs provides a procoagulant surface, and in particular NET-derived mechanisms and the identification of treatment targets is of utmost importance to increase patients’ survival
- C5aR2 receptor: The genomic twin of the flamboyant C5aR1
expected to further enrich the understanding of C5a-C5aR2 interaction compared to C5a-C5aR1, which will surely
- C1-inhibitor influence on platelet activation by thrombin receptors agonists
C1-inhibitor (C1INH) is a protease inhibitor present in plasma but not in isolated platelet suspensions The platelet suspensions were exposed to PAR1 agonists SFLLRN, TFLLR and TFLLRN; PAR4 agonists AYPGKF
- Cell-Type-Specific Effects of the Ovarian Cancer G-Protein Coupled Receptor (OGR1) on Inflammation..
We then demonstrate that sub-cellular localization and alternative signaling pathways may be responsible Our results suggest that strategies to selectively target OGR1 expression may represent a novel therapeutic
- Multifunctional role of GPCR signaling in epithelial tube formation
Rho1 signaling is activated by G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling at the cell surface. Our data support a model wherein Smog regulates distinct myosin pools and actin cytoskeleton in a ligand-dependent
- Lack of Oestrogen Receptor Expression in Breast Cancer Cells Does Not Correlate with Kisspeptin...
cells, stimulation has been associated with increased invasion and MMP-9 expression, leading to the suggestion
- Delineation of GPR15 receptor-mediated Gα protein signaling profile in recombinant mammalian cell
However, the activation profiles of the GPR15 receptor within Gi/o subtypes have not been examined. Within the Gi/o family, the GPR15 receptor activates all the subtypes (Gi1 , Gi2 , Gi3 , GoA , GoB and The potencies of both peptides toward each Gi/o subtype have been determined.
- Regulator of G Protein Signaling 20 Correlates with Long Intergenic Non-Coding RNA (lincRNAs)...
grade in the HCC patients; (c) besides HCC (p < 0.001), RGS20 was found to be an important factor for survival Our analysis further supports the putative function of RGS proteins, particularly RGS20, in cancer."
- Microbial Metabolites Orchestrate a Distinct Multi-Tiered Regulatory Network in the Intestinal Epith
pivotal role in removal of toxins and efflux of endocannabinoids to prevent excessive inflammation and sustain
- Molecular mechanism of allosteric modulation for the cannabinoid receptor CB1
These structures show that ZCZ011 binds to an extrahelical site in the transmembrane 2 (TM2)-TM3-TM4 surface In contrast, ORG27569, a negative allosteric modulator (NAM) of CB1, also binds to the TM2-TM3-TM4 surface
- GASP1 enhances malignant phenotypes of breast cancer cells and decreases their response to...
Functional studies showed that GASP1 knockout significantly suppressed malignant properties of breast and decreases their cellular response to paclitaxel by interacting with and stabilizing IGF1R, and suggests

The change of β2-ADR expression and signaling during sustained inflammation might be an integral part
- Structural basis for receptor selectivity and inverse agonism in S1P5 receptors
September 2022 "The bioactive lysophospholipid sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) acts via five different subtypes Several S1PR therapeutic drugs have been developed to treat these diseases; however, they lack receptor subtype The structure demonstrates a unique ligand-binding mode, involving an allosteric sub-pocket, which clarifies the receptor subtype selectivity and provides a template for structure-based drug design.
- Roles of Focal Adhesion Kinase PTK2 and Integrin αIIbβ3 Signaling in Collagen- and GPVI-Dependent...
show that the combination of pGRP with PTK2 inhibition or of pGRP with pCIB > pCIBm in additive ways suppressed The suppressive rather than activating effects of pGRP were confined to blood flow at a high shear rate This work thereby supports the role of PTK2 in integrin αIIbβ3 activation and signaling."
- A Setmelanotide-like Effect at MC4R Is Achieved by MC4R Dimer Separation
Recent studies introducing setmelanotide, a novel synthetic MC4R agonist, suggest a predominant role In summary, our study shows that inhibiting homodimerization has a setmelanotide-like effect on Gq/11
- A2B Adenosine Receptor Enhances Chemoresistance of Glioblastoma Stem-Like Cells under Hypoxia: New..
aggressive primary brain tumor, characterized by its high chemoresistance and the presence of a cell subpopulation , which extrude drugs outside the cell, such as the multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) subfamily These data suggest that hypoxia-dependent activation of A2B adenosine receptor promotes survival of GSCs
- High GPER expression in triple-negative breast cancer is linked to pro-metastatic pathways and...
our transcriptomic analysis, expression of GPER was correlated with clinicopathological variables and survival value, 26.4% (95/360) of patients showed high GPER expression and significant correlation with the mRNA subtype In quantitative comparison, GPER abundance is correlated with the high-risk subtype of TNBC. Besides, high GPER expression was significantly linked to the worse survival in patients with lymph node These results may supply new insights into GPER-mediated estrogen carcinogenesis in TNBC, thus providing
- Lipid Modulation of a Class B GPCR: Elucidating the Modulatory Role of PI(4,5)P 2 Lipids
In this work, we applied MD simulations supported by native mass spectrometry (nMS) to study lipid interactions This suggests differences in the regulatory function of PI(4,5)P2 between class A and class B GPCRs."
