Beta-Arrestins and Receptor Signaling in the Vascular Endothelium
The vascular endothelium is the innermost layer of blood vessels and is a key regulator of vascular tone. Endothelial function is controlled by receptor signaling through G protein-coupled receptors, receptor tyrosine kinases and receptor serine ...

Chronic stress drives autophagy‐mediated β2‐AR degradation, impairing antiviral immunity and promoting poxvirus lethality. Lycorine directly stabilizes β2‐AR to restore host defense, suppress excessive inflammation and improve survival. ABSTRACT Psychological stress is a pervasive yet poorly understood modulator of infectious disease outcomes. Here, we

Administration of opioids activates ephrinB2‐EphB1 receptor signaling. Activated EphB1 receptors induce GRK2‐mediated phosphorylation of MOR at Ser375, which initiates the internalization of MOR and reduces opioid antinociception at the behavioral level. ABSTRACT Opioids are the primary treatment for severe pain in clinical practice.

β-arrestins are required for nebivolol-mediated phosphorylation of ERK.
siRNA directed towards β-arrestin 1 and 2 were transfected into MEFs; 72 hours later the cells were stimulated with 10 µM of nebivolol for 7 minutes. A representative blot for β-arrestins and total ERK is depicted in panel A above the histogram of the ...

Multiple Scaffolding Functions of β-Arrestins in the Degradation of G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 2 [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) plays a fundamental role in the regulation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and changes in GRK2 expression levels can have an important impact on cell functions.

Arrestin translocation and signaling have come to the fore of the G protein-coupled receptor molecular pharmacology field. Some receptor–arrestin interactions are relatively well understood and considered responsible for specific therapeutic or adverse ...

Macrophage CB1R emerges as a key driver of psoriatic inflammation by suppressing AUF1‐mediated post‐transcriptional control of NLRP3. CB1R inhibition restores AUF1‐dependent NLRP3 mRNA decay, restrains inflammasome activation, and alleviates psoriasis‐like inflammation.

β-arrestin recruitment facilitates a direct association with G proteins
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are targets for almost a third of all FDA-approved drugs. GPCRs are known to signal through both heterotrimeric G proteins and β-arrestins. Traditionally these pathways were viewed as largely separable, with G proteins

Function and dynamics of the intrinsically disordered carboxyl terminus of β2 adrenergic receptor
Advances in structural biology have provided important mechanistic insights into signaling by the transmembrane core of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs); however, much less is known about intrinsically disordered regions such as the carboxyl terminus (

Abstract Cyclizine is a long‐established, short‐acting drug, registered for preventing motion sickness, post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ‘vomiting of known cause’. The latter is not defined but may include pregnancy and patients receiving palliative care, historically accepted without large, controlled trials.
