The c‐Src inhibitor eCF506 diminishes opioid tolerance and reduces β‐arrestin2 recruitment

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Morphine activation of μ receptors causes tolerance through c‐Src activation and β‐arrestin2 recruitment. c‐Src inhibition or degradation reduces β‐arrestin2 recruitment, μ receptor endocytosis, while causing receptor upregulation, all likely contributing to reduced morphine tolerance.

Broadening horizons: Pathogenesis and therapeutics of renal ciliopathies

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 3, September 2026.
This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms and aberrant signaling pathways in renal ciliopathies, links genetic heterogeneity to clinical phenotypes, and lays a theoretical basis for prenatal diagnosis and novel therapies. Abstract Renal ciliopathies encompass a spectrum of genetic disorders arising from structural or functional impairments of ...

Unraveling the Anti‐Arthritic Potential of Bioactive Compounds From Melaleuca alternifolia Oil: Integrated In Vivo, Molecular Docking, and Network Pharmacology Insights

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Melaleuca alternifolia oil demonstrated significant anti‐arthritic effects in CFA‐induced rats by reducing paw edema, PGE2 levels, and inflammatory biomarkers. It improved hematological and histopathological parameters, modulated cytokine expression, and showed promising phytochemical‐target interactions through GC–MS, network pharmacology, and ...

Neurocardiology: Brain–Heart Interactions in the Heart

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
The heart and brain maintain systemic homeostasis through bidirectional communication involving neural, biochemical, and mechanical pathways. Dysregulation of these pathways contributes to a spectrum of conditions involving heart–brain interactions, including Takotsubo syndrome, the epileptic heart, stroke–heart syndrome, heart failure, cardiac ...

Receptor for activated C kinase-1 facilitates protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation and functional modulation of GABA(A) receptors with the activation of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
GABA(A) receptors are the principal sites of fast synaptic inhibition in the brain. These receptors are hetero-pentamers that can be assembled from a number of subunit classes: alpha(1-6), beta(1-3), gamma(1-3), delta(1), epsilon, theta, and pi, but the ...

New roles of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) in cell migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) was initially identified as a key player, together with β-arrestins, in the regulation of multiple G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). Further research has revealed a complex GRK2 interactome, that includes a

β3‐AR/β‐arrestin2 Interaction Triggers Cardiac Fibrosis Through JNK/c‐Jun Pathway in Cardiac Fibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 15, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Myocardial fibrosis (MF) is a critical pathological substrate of heart failure (HF), and β3‐adrenergic receptor (β3‐AR) has been implicated in cardiac remodelling with controversial roles. This study aimed to clarify the pro‐fibrotic mechanism of β3‐AR in cardiac fibroblasts and its association with β‐arrestin2‐mediated biased activation ...

The role of dimerisation in the cellular trafficking of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The concept that G-protein-coupled receptors can exist as homomeric and/or heteromeric complexes is now well established. Despite this, how dynamic such interactions are and if this may be modulated during receptor trafficking remain topics of debate ...
