Molecular dynamics simulation analysis of structural dynamic cross correlation induced by odorant hydrogen-bonding in mouse eugenol ol- factory receptor

open access: yesBiophysics and Physicobiology
Structural fluctuations and dynamic cross-correlations in the mouse eugenol olfactory receptor (Olfr73) were studied by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to characterize the dynamic response of the protein upon ligand binding.

Ontogeny of the specificity of gonadotropin receptors and gene expression in carp

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2019
The pituitary gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), are the principle endocrine drivers of reproductive processes in the gonads of jawed vertebrates.

C1q+ Macrophage–Tumor Cell Interaction Promoted Tumorigenesis via GPR17/PI3K/AKT Pathway Induced DNA Hypermethylation in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the TME of NPC, C1q secreted by C1q+ TAMs interacted with GPR17 to activate PI3K/AKT signaling through strengthening GPR17 coupling PI3K and increasing calcium levels in tumor cells. The activated PI3K/AKT signaling further induces DNA hypermethylation to promote the malignancy and stemness of tumor cells.

Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors and swodkocrine signaling

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors that trigger swodkocrine signaling. Abstract Sugars are one of the major metabolites and are essential for nucleic acid synthesis and energy production. In addition, sugars can act as signaling molecules. To study sugar signaling at the systemic level, there is an urgent need to systematically identify sugar‐sensing ...

Structures and functions of cilia during vertebrate embryo development

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 89, Issue 12, Page 579-596, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Cilia are hair‐like structures that project from the surface of cells. In vertebrates, most cells have an immotile primary cilium that mediates cell signaling, and some specialized cells assemble one or multiple cilia that are motile and beat synchronously to move fluids in one direction.

What Makes Antibodies Against G Protein-Coupled Receptors so Special? A Novel Concept to Understand Chronic Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Expressions of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) on immune and tissue resident cells are the consequence of the cellular environment, which is highly variable.

Inhibition of signaling downstream of beta‐2 adrenoceptor by propranolol in prostate cancer cells

open access: yesThe Prostate, Volume 83, Issue 3, Page 237-245, February 15, 2023., 2023
Abstract Background There is accumulating evidence that propranolol, an antagonist of beta‐1 and beta‐2 adrenoreceptors, extends survival of patients with prostate cancer; yet it is not known whether propranolol inhibits beta‐adrenergic signaling in prostate cancer cells, or systemic effects of propranolol play the leading role in slowing down cancer ...

Dampening of neurotransmitter action: molecular similarity within the melatonin structure

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2018
Objectives. Melatonin initiates physiologic and therapeutic responses in various tissues through binding to poorly defined MT receptors regulated by G-proteins and purine nucleotides.

GPCR kinase knockout cells reveal the impact of individual GRKs on arrestin binding and GPCR regulation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
GPCR kinases (GRKs) regulate GPCR interactions and thus functions. Here, the authors report a comprehensive panel of GRK knockout cells, used to assess the GRK-specific β-arrestin recruitment. Selective engagement of GRKs induces distinct GPCR–β-arrestin
