Prognostic Value of Lymphocyte G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase-2 Protein Levels in Patients With Heart Failure. [PDF]
Rationale Sympathetic nervous system (SNS) hyperactivity is associated with poor prognosis in patients with HF, yet routine assessment of SNS activation is not recommended for clinical practice. Myocardial G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is up-

Rationale: Activation of prosurvival kinases and subsequent nitric oxide (NO) production by certain G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) protects myocardium in ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/R) models. GPCR signaling pathways are regulated by GPCR kinases

The G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 2 Is a Microtubule-associated Protein Kinase That Phosphorylates Tubulin* [PDF]
The G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is a serine/threonine kinase that phosphorylates and desensitizes agonist-occupied G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).

G-Protein–Coupled Receptor Kinase 2 as a Potential Modulator of the Hallmarks of Cancer [PDF]
Malignant features-such as sustained proliferation, refractoriness to growth suppressors, resistance to cell death or aberrant motility, and metastasis-can be triggered by a variety of mutations and signaling adaptations. Signaling nodes can act as cancer-associated factors by cooperating with oncogene-governed pathways or participating in compensatory

The roles of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 in renal diseases. [PDF]
AbstractG protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) kinase 2 (GRK2) is an integrative node in many signalling network cascades. An emerging study indicates that GRK2 can interact with GPCRs and non‐GPCR substrates in both kinase‐dependent and ‐independent modes. Alterations in the functional levels of GRK2 have been found in a variety of renal diseases, such as ...

Mechanisms of adrenocorticotropin-induced activation of erk 1/2 map kinase in the human H295R adrenal cell line [PDF]
PhDThe role of ACTH in stimulating or inhibiting growth of adrenal cells has been a subject of some controversy. Reports that ACTH may stimulate Erk/MAP kinase in Y1 cells have suggested a role for cAMP in this process.

Mdm2 is involved in the ubiquitination and degradation of G‐protein‐coupled receptor kinase 2 [PDF]
G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is a central regulator of G-protein-coupled receptor signaling. We report that Mdm2, an E3-ubiquitin ligase involved in the control of cell growth and apoptosis, plays a key role in GRK2 degradation. Mdm2 and GRK2 association is enhanced by beta(2)-adrenergic receptor stimulation and beta-arrestin.

Smoothened Signal Transduction Is Promoted by G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 2 [PDF]
Deregulation of the Sonic hedgehog pathway has been implicated in an increasing number of human cancers. In this pathway, the seven-transmembrane (7TM) signaling protein Smoothened regulates cellular proliferation and differentiation through activation of the transcription factor Gli.
