B-arrestin-2 Signaling Is Important to Preserve Cardiac Function During Aging

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Experiments reported here tested the hypothesis that β-arrestin-2 is an important element in the preservation of cardiac function during aging. We tested this hypothesis by aging β-arrestin-2 knock-out (KO) mice, and wild-type equivalent (WT) to 12 ...

β-Arrestin-dependent deactivation of mouse melanopsin.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In mammals, the expression of the unusual visual pigment, melanopsin, is restricted to a small subset of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), whose signaling regulate numerous non-visual functions including sleep, circadian ...

Surfactant protein-A modulates LPS-induced TLR4 localization and signaling via β-arrestin 2. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The soluble C-type lectin surfactant protein (SP)-A mediates lung immune responses partially via its direct effects on alveolar macrophages (AM), the main resident leukocytes exposed to antigens. SP-A modulates the AM threshold of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)

Differential Involvement of ACKR3 C-Tail in β-Arrestin Recruitment, Trafficking and Internalization

open access: yesCells, 2021
Background: The atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3) belongs to the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Unlike classical GPCRs, this receptor does not activate G proteins in most cell types but recruits β-arrestins upon activation. ACKR3

The Effects of Apelin and Elabela Ligands on Apelin Receptor Distinct Signaling Profiles

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Apelin and Elabela are endogenous peptide ligands for Apelin receptor (APJ), a widely expressed G protein-coupled receptor. They constitute a spatiotemporal dual ligand system to control APJ signal transduction and function.

β-Arrestin1 and 2 differentially regulate PACAP-induced PAC1 receptor signaling and trafficking. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
A pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP)-specific receptor, PAC1R, is coupled with multiple signal transduction pathways including stimulation of adenylate cyclase, phospholipase C and extracellular-signal regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 ...

Arrestin-biased AT1R agonism induces acute catecholamine secretion through TRPC3 coupling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R)-mediated acute catecholamine release is modulated by β-arrestin. Here the authors show that β-arrestin-1 recruits the Ca2+channel TRPC3 and the PLCγ to the AT1R-β-arrestin complex, triggering G protein-independent ...

Ezrin, Radixin, and Moesin Phosphorylation in NIH3T3 Cells Revealed Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Cell-Type–Dependent Biased Signaling

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2013
.: β-Arrestin-biased agonists are a new class of drugs with promising therapeutic effects. The molecular mechanisms of β-arrestin-biased agonists are still not completely identified.

β-Arrestin-1 expression and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in laryngeal carcinoma

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 2019
Aim: The novel primary end-point of the present study was to ascertain β-arrestin-1 expression in a cohort of consecutive patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) with information available on their cigarette-smoking habits. A secondary end-

Natural Products Inspired Scaffold Diversification Leads to Unnatural Molecular Warhead and Covalent Strategy to Modulating Protein Function through Electrophilic Bromine Transfer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We report a new thiolate‐reactive α,α‐gem‐dibromo lactam warhead that activates transcription factor Nrf2 and demonstrates anti‐inflammatory activities, which have implications in cancer, neurodegeneration, and cardiovascular diseases. RNA‐seq illuminated detailed transcriptional profiles, and chemical reactions with cysteine‐containing compounds ...
