Prognostic value of β-Arrestins in combination with glucocorticoid receptor in epithelial ovarian cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Hormones may be key factors driving cancer development, and epidemiological findings suggest that steroid hormones play a crucial role in ovarian tumorigenesis.

Distinct and shared roles of β-arrestin-1 and β-arrestin-2 on the regulation of C3a receptor signaling in human mast cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The complement component C3a induces degranulation in human mast cells via the activation of cell surface G protein coupled receptors (GPCR; C3aR).

β-Arrestin regulation of myosin light chain phosphorylation promotes AT1aR-mediated cell contraction and migration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Over the last decade, it has been established that G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) signal not only through canonical G-protein-mediated mechanisms, but also through the ubiquitous cellular scaffolds β-arrestin-1 and β-arrestin-2.

Quantification of beta adrenergic receptor subtypes in beta-arrestin knockout mouse airways. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In allergic asthma Beta 2 adrenergic receptors (β2ARs) are important mediators of bronchorelaxation and, paradoxically, asthma development. This contradiction is likely due to the activation of dual signaling pathways that are downstream of G proteins or

Select G-Protein-Coupled Receptors Modulate Agonist-Induced Signaling via a ROCK, LIMK, and β-Arrestin 1 Pathway

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are typically present in a basal, inactive state but, when bound to an agonist, activate downstream signaling cascades. In studying arrestin regulation of opioid receptors in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons, we find that agonists of delta opioid receptors (δORs) activate cofilin through Rho-associated coiled-coil ...

GPR54 regulates ERK1/2 activity and hypothalamic gene expression in a Gα(q/11) and β-arrestin-dependent manner. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
G protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54) is a G(q/11)-coupled 7 transmembrane-spanning receptor (7TMR). Activation of GPR54 by kisspeptin (Kp) stimulates PIP(2) hydrolysis, Ca(2+) mobilization and ERK1/2 MAPK phosphorylation.

Endothelial β‐arrestins regulate mechanotransduction by the type II bone morphogenetic protein receptor in primary cilia

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2022
Modulation of endothelial cell behavior and phenotype by hemodynamic forces involves many signaling components, including cell surface receptors, intracellular signaling intermediaries, transcription factors, and epigenetic elements.

A method for biomarker measurements in peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from anxious and depressed mice: β-arrestin 1 protein levels in depression and treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2013
A limited number of biomarkers in the central and peripheral systems which are known may be useful for diagnosing major depressive disorders and predicting the effectiveness of antidepressant treatments.

The endocytosis of oxidized LDL via the activation of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Arrestin-dependent activation of a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) triggers endocytotic internalization of the receptor complex. We analyzed the interaction between the pattern recognition receptor (PRR) lectin-like oxidized low-density ...

β-Arrestin-Mediated Signaling Improves the Efficacy of Therapeutics

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
β-Arrestins (β-arrestin-1 and β-arrestin-2) were first identified as proteins that have the ability to desensitize G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). However, it has recently been found that β-arrestins can activate signaling pathways independent of G ...
