Transient Ca2+ entry by plasmalogen-mediated activation of receptor potential cation channel promotes AMPK activity

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Ethanolamine-containing alkenyl ether glycerophospholipids, plasmalogens, are major cell membrane components of mammalian cells that activate membrane protein receptors such as ion transporters and G-protein coupled receptors.

G protein receptor kinase type 2: A novel target in cardiovascular drug development [PDF]

Hospital Pharmacology, 2014
In spite of significant advancement in pharmacotherapy, heart failure remains one of the main causes of death worldwide. The existing treatment of heart failure prolongs life span by slowing down the pathological process but does not induce heart healing.

The tyrosine phosphatase CD148 is an essential positive regulator of platelet activation and thrombosis [PDF]

, 2009
Platelets play a fundamental role in hemostasis and thrombosis. They are also involved in pathologic conditions resulting from blocked blood vessels, including myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke.

C-terminal threonines and serines play distinct roles in the desensitization of rhodopsin, a G protein-coupled receptor

eLife, 2015
Rod photoreceptors generate measurable responses to single-photon activation of individual molecules of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), rhodopsin.

Structural and Functional Analysis of a β2-Adrenergic Receptor Complex with GRK5. [PDF]

, 2017
The phosphorylation of agonist-occupied G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) by GPCR kinases (GRKs) functions to turn off G-protein signaling and turn on arrestin-mediated signaling.

Differential Signaling Profiles of MC4R Mutations with Three Different Ligands [PDF]

, 2020
The melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) is a key player in hypothalamic weight regulation and energy expenditure as part of the leptin-melanocortin pathway. Mutations in this G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) are the most common cause for monogenetic obesity,

GIT1 protects against breast cancer growth through negative regulation of Notch

Nature Communications, 2022
Notch signalling is reported to be hyperactivated in oestrogen receptor-negative (ER-) breast cancer. Here the authors show that G protein-coupled receptor kinase-interacting protein 1 (GIT1) negatively regulates Notch signalling and tumour growth in ER-

Smoothened adopts multiple active and inactive conformations capable of trafficking to the primary cilium. [PDF]

, 2009
Activation of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling requires the transmembrane protein Smoothened (Smo), a member of the G-protein coupled receptor superfamily. In mammals, Smo translocates to the primary cilium upon binding of Hh ligands to their receptor, Patched ...

Regulation Role of Non-Rhodopsin G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinases on Tumor

Zhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2019
G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are involved in a wide range of cellular physiology and pathological activities by specifically phosphorylating activated G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) to terminate GPCR signaling and phosphorylating non ...
