The potential for biased signalling in the P2Y receptor family of GPCRs
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.The purinergic receptor family is primarily activated by nucleotides, and contains members of both the G protein coupled‐receptor (GPCR) superfamily (P1 and P2Y) and ligand‐gated ion channels (P2X). The P2Y receptors are widely expressed in the human body, and given the ubiquitous nature of nucleotides, purinergic signalling is involved with a plethora

A comprehensive review of cancer‐induced cardiac wasting
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cancer is frequently accompanied by cachexia, a systemic syndrome characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, with or without loss of fat mass. Increasing evidence indicates that cancer can also induce cardiac muscle wasting, which is associated with structural cardiac remodelling, impaired contractile function and the development of ...

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Dualsteric and dual‐acting modulation of muscarinic receptors by antagonist KH‐5
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and purpose Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are key therapeutic targets, and ligands engaging both orthosteric and allosteric sites may offer improved selectivity and efficacy. Here, we investigated whether the muscarinic antagonist KH‐5 acts as a dualsteric antagonist and defined its mode of interaction with muscarinic receptors.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major drug targets, yet many orphan receptors remain poorly characterized. GPR139 has been implicated in CNS disorders, including schizophrenia and depression, but its signalling mechanisms remain unclear.
