Fingerprinting heterocellular β-adrenoceptor functional expression in the brain using agonist activity profiles

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Noradrenergic projections from the brainstem locus coeruleus drive arousal, attentiveness, mood, and memory, but specific adrenoceptor (AR) function across the varied brain cell types has not been extensively characterized, especially with agonists. This

Nicotinic Receptors in the Medial Habenula to Interpeduncular Nucleus Pathway: Modulators of Reward, Aversion and Emotion. [PDF]

open access: yesEur J Neurosci
ABSTRACT The medial habenula–interpeduncular nucleus pathway is a highly conserved and densely innervated brain circuit known for its unique cholinergic transmission and exceptional expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. This pathway plays a critical role in regulating motivational and emotional processes, particularly those related to ...

β3-Adrenergic receptor downregulation leads to adipocyte catecholamine resistance in obesity

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2022
The dysregulation of energy homeostasis in obesity involves multihormone resistance. Although leptin and insulin resistance have been well characterized, catecholamine resistance remains largely unexplored.

Phosphorylation and Internalization of Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptors LPA1, LPA2, and LPA3. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The lysophosphatidic acid receptors LPA1, LPA2, and LPA3 were individually expressed in C9 cells and their signaling and regulation were studied. Agonist-activation increases intracellular calcium concentration in a concentration-dependent fashion ...

Addition of a carboxy-terminal tail to the normally tailless gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor impairs fertility in female mice

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is the primary neuropeptide controlling reproduction in vertebrates. GnRH stimulates follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) synthesis via a G-protein-coupled receptor, GnRHR, in the pituitary

Desensitization by Different Strategies of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor and ErbB4

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2014
Four transmembrane tyrosine kinases constitute the ErbB protein family: epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or ErbB1, ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4. In general, the structure and mechanism of the activation of these members are similar.

GRKs as Modulators of Neurotransmitter Receptors

open access: yesCells, 2020
Many receptors for neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, and neuropeptides, belong to the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). A general model posits that GPCRs undergo two-step homologous desensitization: the
