QR code model: a new possibility for GPCR phosphorylation recognition

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2022
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of membrane proteins in the human body and are responsible for accurately transmitting extracellular information to cells. Arrestin is an important member of the GPCR signaling pathway.

Ascidian arrestin (Ci‐arr), the origin of the visual and nonvisual arrestins of vertebrate [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 2002
Arrestin is one of the key proteins for the termination of G protein signaling. Activated G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are specifically phosphorylated by G protein‐coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) and then bind to arrestins to preclude the receptor/G protein interaction, resulting in quenching of the following signal transduction.

Divergent Roles of mGlu2 and mGlu3 Receptors in Amyloid‐β Production and Cognitive Dysfunctions in Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the opposing effects of the mGluR2 and mGluR3 receptors on amyloid precursor protein processing. mGluR2 promotes amyloidogenic cleavage, while mGluR3 favors non‐amyloidogenic pathways. Using a brain‐penetrant nanobody as a mGluR2 positive allosteric modulator, the study uncovers how its chronic activation aggravates amyloid‐β burden

Nano‐Gs‐Protein Peptidomimetika: Rationales Design von Peptiden, die vom C‐Terminus von Gα abgeleitet sind und Schlüsselkomponenten der Gs‐β2AR‐Wechselwirkungen nachahmen

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
G Protein‐gekoppelte Rezeptoren (GPCRs) sind wichtige therapeutische Zielstrukturen. Die Modulation der GPCR‐Aktivität über intrazelluläre Bindungsstellen gewinnt zunehmend an Bedeutung. Ein strukturell und computergestützter Ansatz ermöglichte die Entwicklung kleiner, vom G Protein abgeleiteter Peptidomimetika, die gezielt an die intrazelluläre ...

Nano‐Gs Protein Peptidomimetics: Rational Design of Gα C‐Terminus‐Derived Peptides Mimicking Key Components of Gs‐β2AR Interactions

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major therapeutic targets. Modulating GPCR activity through intracellular sites is evolving. A structure‐ and computation‐assisted approach generated small G protein‐derived peptidomimetics targeting the intracellular binding crevice of the β2 adrenergic receptor mimicking features of the full G protein.

Serotonin 5‐HT7 receptor signaling in neuropsychiatric disorders

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
5‐HT7R recruits Gs, G12, and β‐arrestin signaling to regulate neuronal plasticity, circuit function, and kinase‐linked intracellular responses. This review summarizes how these pathway‐selective modules contribute to autism spectrum disorder, depression, and schizophrenia, highlighting 5‐HT7R as a pathway‐informed therapeutic target.

The Serotonin 2B (5‐HT2B) Receptor: A Narrative Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence on the Safety Considerations and Therapeutic Potential for the Treatment of Depression

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) remain leading causes of disability, providing the impetus for receptor‐level treatment strategies beyond monoamine reuptake. The serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) is uniquely positioned at the interface of central‐antidepressant mechanisms and peripheral cardiac risks.

Emerging Roles of β-Arrestins [PDF]

Cell Cycle, 2006
Arrestins were originally characterized as structural adaptor proteins which modulate the desensitization and trafficking of seven-membrane-spanning receptors. From these seminal observations a multitude of novel functions for this gene family have arisen. Here we review the recently identified roles for beta-arrestin including its nuclear function and

Assessment of Abuse Potential‐Related Effects of Oral Dried Kratom Leaf Powder in Healthy Normal Participants Following Single and Multiple Daily Doses

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
In a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study of oral dried kratom leaf powder in healthy kratom‐naive adults, no participants met the clinically meaningful opioid withdrawal threshold; abuse‐related treatment‐emergent adverse events occurred more frequently at higher doses but were generally mild and resolved without sequelae; and no serious

Mortality risk stratification for Takotsubo syndrome: Evaluating CRP measurement alongside the InterTAK prognostic score

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1427-1436, April 2025.
Abstract Background and objectives Initially described as a benign acute cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome has been linked to elevated mortality rates. Emerging evidence suggests that unresolved myocardial inflammation may contribute to this adverse prognosis.
