Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.Background Pain is the hallmark symptom of osteoarthritis (OA) and its biological drivers remain poorly understood. While the role of innate immunity in OA has been extensively studied, the involvement of adaptive immunity, in particular regulatory T cells (Tregs), is not well understood. Methods We performed omics profiling of peripheral blood from 46

Peroxiredoxin 6 mediates Gαi protein-coupled receptor inactivation by cJun kinase
Nature Communications, 2017 Opioid receptors are important modulators of nociceptive pain. Here the authors show that opioid receptor activation recruits peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) to the receptor-Gαi complex by c-Jun N-terminal kinase, resulting in Gαi depalmitoylation and enhanced ...

The G protein-coupled receptor heterodimer network (GPCR-HetNet) and its hub components [PDF]
, 2014 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) oligomerization has emerged as a vital characteristic of receptor structure. Substantial experimental evidence supports the existence of GPCR-GPCR interactions in a coordinated and cooperative manner.

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Aims At Koç University School of Medicine, a one‐week rational pharmacotherapy (RPHM) programme, modelled after WHO 6‐step, has been introduced in the fourth‐year curriculum to improve prescription skills. For efficient problem‐based learning (PBL) sessions on a prespecified topic, students need to brush up on basic pharmacology knowledge, so we ...

Threonine 180 Is Required for G-protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 3- and β-Arrestin 2-mediated Desensitization of the µ-Opioid Receptor in Xenopus Oocytes [PDF]
, 2001 To determine the sites in the µ-opioid receptor (MOR) critical for agonist-dependent desensitization, we constructed and coexpressed MORs lacking potential phosphorylation sites along with G-protein activated inwardly rectifying potassium channels ...

Caenorhabditis elegans as a model system to identify therapeutics for alcohol use disorders [PDF]
, 2019 Alcohol use disorders (AUDs) cause serious problems in society and few effective treatments are available. Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is an excellent invertebrate model to study the neurobiological basis of human behavior with a conserved, fully
