GRKs and arrestins: Nomenclature and functions in GPCR‐dependent and ‐independent signalling
G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and arrestins play a critical role in the regulation of GPCR signalling. Historic names of mammalian GRKs were replaced by systematic ones in the 1990s; however, both kinds of names are currently in use for mammalian arrestins.

β-adrenergic receptors and G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 in Alzheimer's disease: a new paradigm for prognosis and therapy? [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating form of dementia that imposes a severe burden on health systems and society. Although several aspects of AD pathogenesis have been elucidated over the last few decades, many questions still need to be addressed ...

GRK2 desensitizes flow-induced responses in osteoblasts
Bone desensitization after mechanical loading is essential for bone to adapt to its mechanical environment. However, the desensitization mechanism is unknown. Previous studies suggest that G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), including P2Y and parathyroid hormone receptors, play important roles in osteoblast mechanobiology.

Effects of exercise training on cardiovascular adrenergic system [PDF]
In heart failure (HF), exercise has been shown to modulate cardiac sympathetic hyperactivation which is one of the earliest features of neurohormonal derangement in this syndrome and correlates with adverse outcome.

Innate Lymphoid Cells in Tissue Homeostasis and Diseases
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a heterogeneous group of immune cells with phenotypic and functional plasticity. ILCs dynamically regulate various immune cell types and play a crucial role in the pathophysiological processes of specific organs during sepsis. Targeting ILCs is a promising strategy for treating sepsis.
