Peripheral targets for neuropathic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Neuropathic pain represents a significant clinical challenge, with still limited pharmacological approaches to symptomatic relief. This review focuses on molecular targets implicated in neuropathic pain, particularly those involved in peripheral mechanisms. Using the IUPHAR/BPS database of biological targets, their occurrence together with ‘neuropathic

Systematic profiling reveals broad G protein coupling and context‐dependent modulation of cyclic AMP by the orphan receptor GPR139

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major drug targets, yet many orphan receptors remain poorly characterized. GPR139 has been implicated in CNS disorders, including schizophrenia and depression, but its signalling mechanisms remain unclear.

Structural basis of arrestin-3 activation and signaling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
While arrestins are mainly associated with GPCR signaling, arrestin-3 can signal independently of receptor interaction. Here the authors present the structure of arrestin-3 bound to inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) and propose a model for arrestin-3 ...

A Brief History of the β-Arrestins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Arrestins have now been implicated in the actions of virtually every G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) for which they have been examined. Originally discovered for their role in the turnoff of visual perception, their newly discovered pleotropic functions in the cellular and physiological actions of GPCRs not only illuminate new mechanisms of signal ...

The c‐Src inhibitor eCF506 diminishes opioid tolerance and reduces β‐arrestin2 recruitment

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Morphine activation of μ receptors causes tolerance through c‐Src activation and β‐arrestin2 recruitment. c‐Src inhibition or degradation reduces β‐arrestin2 recruitment, μ receptor endocytosis, while causing receptor upregulation, all likely contributing to reduced morphine tolerance.

Nedd4-1 and beta-arrestin-1 are key regulators of Na+/H+ exchanger 1 ubiquitylation, endocytosis, and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The ubiquitously expressed mammalian Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 1 (NHE1) controls cell volume and pH but is also critically involved in complex biological processes like cell adhesion, cell migration, cell proliferation, and mechanosensation.

Positive modulation of glucagon‐like peptide 1 (GLP‐1) receptor by endogenous haemorphins with implications in glucose metabolism and diabetes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Haemorphins act on GLP‐1 receptor (GLP‐1R) activity and signalling in a positive allosteric manner. This leads to potentiated GLP‐1‐mediated activity and signalling, as well as insulin synthesis, which may have implications for glucose metabolism and, thereby, diabetes and obesity. (The graph was created in BioRender.com).
