G protein-coupled receptors and obesity. [PDF]
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne), 2023 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have emerged as important drug targets for various chronic diseases, including obesity and diabetes. Obesity is a complex chronic disease that requires long term management predisposing to type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers.

G Protein-Coupled Receptors in Osteoarthritis [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic joint disease characterized, for which there are no available therapies being able to modify the progression of OA and prevent long-term disability. Critical roles of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been established in OA cartilage degeneration, subchondral bone sclerosis and chronic pain. In this

Targeting G protein–coupled receptor kinases to G protein–coupled receptors
Current Opinion in Endocrine and Metabolic Research, 2021 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) interact with three protein families following agonist binding: heterotrimeric G proteins, G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) and arrestins. GRK-mediated phosphorylation of GPCRs promotes arrestin binding to uncouple the receptor from G protein, a process called desensitization, and for many GPCRs, arrestin ...

G protein-coupled receptors: structure- and function-based drug discovery
Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2021 As one of the most successful therapeutic target families, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have experienced a transformation from random ligand screening to knowledge-driven drug design.

G Protein–Coupled Receptor Heteromers [PDF]
Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2016 G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) compose one of the largest families of membrane proteins involved in intracellular signaling. They are involved in numerous physiological and pathological processes and are prime candidates for drug development. Over the past decade, an increasing number of studies have reported heteromerization between GPCRs.

G Protein-Coupled Receptors in Cancer [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016 Despite the fact that G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest signal-conveying receptor family and mediate many physiological processes, their role in tumor biology is underappreciated. Numerous lines of evidence now associate GPCRs and their downstream signaling targets in cancer growth and development.
