MRAP2 Inhibits β-Arrestin-2 Recruitment to the Prokineticin Receptor 2
Melanocortin receptor accessory protein 2 (MRAP2) is a membrane protein that binds multiple G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) involved in the control of energy homeostasis, including prokineticin receptors.

ABSTRACT Equine melanocytic neoplasms (EMN) are aggressive tumours characterised by high metastatic potential and limited therapeutic options available. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their progression remain poorly understood. This study therefore presents the integrative phosphoproteomic analysis of EMN tissue, with the aim of ...

The graphical abstract summarizes the current evidence on the potential neuroprotective effects of tirzepatide (TZP), a dual GIP/GLP‐1 receptor agonist, across mechanistic, preclinical, and clinical domains. Mechanistically, TZP is proposed to exert direct neural effects, preserve mitochondrial function, reduce apoptosis, oxidative stress, and ...

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.

Hypoxia, oncogenic signaling, transcriptional and epigenetic remodeling, and H. pylori–microbiota interactions drive the Warburg effect in gastric cancer. Enhanced glycolysis and lactate export support biosynthesis, remodel the tumor microenvironment, promote stromal activation and immune suppression, and reveal actionable biomarkers and therapeutic ...

Endothelial Atypical Receptors for Chemoattractants in Lung Immune Surveillance
Control of chemokine gradients within tissues is achieved by atypical chemokine receptors (ACKRs). The lungs require tightly regulated leukocyte recruitment for effective host defense while preventing tissue damage. In this context, ACKRs expressed by lung endothelial cells are emerging as critical regulators of leukocyte trafficking and inflammatory ...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a disease characterized by uncontrolled proliferation and blocked maturation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Despite progress in its clinical management, many patients continue to relapse or show limited response to standard therapies, emphasizing the need for novel, safe, and more effective targeted ...

Glucose Transporter 1 in Health and Disease
As the quintessential facilitator of basal glucose uptake, glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) is indispensable for maintaining systemic energy homeostasis. This graphical abstract delineates the multidimensional landscape of GLUT1 in normal physiology. It highlights its tissue‐specific metabolic roles—from fueling erythrocytes and fetal development to ...

The G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily consists of the most common targets of approved drugs. Targeting GPCRs offers appealing avenues for therapeutic development. Antibodies and their fragments, such as single‐domain antibodies (VHHs or nanobodies), have emerged as useful alternatives to small molecule pharmacophores as building blocks in ...

GIP in Cardiovascular and Kidney Disease: From Physiology to Pharmacology
ABSTRACT Aims To provide a comprehensive overview of the cardiovascular and renal effects of glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) by integrating its physiological role with recent human trial data on tirzepatide, the first dual GIP and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonist.
