G Protein-coupled Receptor Biased Agonism. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cardiovasc Pharmacol, 2016
G protein-coupled receptors are the largest family of targets for current therapeutics. The classic model of their activation was binary, where agonist binding induced an active conformation and subsequent downstream signaling. Subsequently, the revised concept of biased agonism emerged, where different ligands at the same G protein-coupled receptor ...

Structural determinants of 5-HT2B receptor activation and biased agonism. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Struct Mol Biol, 2018
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) receptors modulate a variety of physiological processes ranging from perception, cognition and emotion to vascular and smooth muscle contraction, platelet aggregation, gastrointestinal function and reproduction.

Biased action of the CXCR4-targeting drug plerixafor is essential for its superior hematopoietic stem cell mobilization

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Jørgensen et al. investigate the effects of the CXCR4 targeting agents, AMD3100 (Plerixafor) and AMD11070, and show that AMD3100, unlike AMD11070, is biased with intrinsic β-arrestin recruitment agonism and full G protein antagonism. They finally propose

Partial agonism improves the anti-hyperglycaemic efficacy of an oxyntomodulin-derived GLP-1R/GCGR co-agonist

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2021
Objective: Glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucagon receptor (GLP-1R/GCGR) co-agonism can maximise weight loss and improve glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes and obesity.

A Pluridimensional View of Biased Agonism [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Pharmacology, 2016
When studying G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling and ligand-biased agonism, at least three dimensional spaces must be considered, as follows: 1) the distinct conformations that can be stabilized by different ligands promoting the engagement of different signaling effectors and accessory regulators; 2) the distinct subcellular trafficking that ...

Combinatorial targeting of G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 and cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 reveals a mechanistic role for bile acids and leukotrienes in drug‐induced liver injury

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
CHIN117 is a dual cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1) antagonist and G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) agonist. In the liver, GPBAR1 and CYSLTR1 are coexpressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), HSCs, circulating monocytes/macrophages, and liver resident macrophages (Kupffer cells).

Recent developments in biased agonism [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2014
The classic paradigm of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation was based on the understanding that agonist binding to a receptor induces or stabilizes a conformational change to an 'active' conformation. In the past decade, however, it has been appreciated that ligands can induce distinct 'active' receptor conformations with unique downstream ...
