Transcriptome Profiling of Dysregulated GPCRs Reveals Overlapping Patterns across Psychiatric Disorders and Age-Disease Interactions

open access: yesCells, 2021
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play an integral role in the neurobiology of psychiatric disorders. Almost all neurotransmitters involved in psychiatric disorders act through GPCRs, and GPCRs are the most common targets of therapeutic drugs currently

Bromophenols from Symphyocladia latiuscula (Harvey) Yamada as Novel Cholecystokinin 2 Receptor Antagonists

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2023
Background: Cholecystokinin (CCK) is one of the most abundant peptides in the central nervous system and is believed to function as a neurotransmitter as well as a gut hormone with an inverse correlation of its level to anxiety and depression. Therefore,

Insights into Nuclear G-Protein-Coupled Receptors as Therapeutic Targets in Non-Communicable Diseases

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise a large protein superfamily divided into six classes, rhodopsin-like (A), secretin receptor family (B), metabotropic glutamate (C), fungal mating pheromone receptors (D), cyclic AMP receptors (E) and frizzled (

GPCRs and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesActa Pharmacologica Sinica, 2012
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which represent the largest gene family in the human genome, play a crucial role in multiple physiological functions as well as in tumor growth and metastasis. For instance, various molecules like hormones, lipids, peptides and neurotransmitters exert their biological effects by binding to these seven-transmembrane ...
