Clinically relevant niclosamide concentrations modulate TMEM16A and CaV1.2 channels to control artery tone and capillary diameter

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose TMEM16A Ca2+‐gated Cl− channels mediate depolarisation of contractile vascular cells. The anthelmintic niclosamide was reported to modulate the TMEM16A channel, suggesting possible repurposing for vascular pharmacology. Here, we investigate the mechanism of TMEM16A modulation by niclosamide and explore its effect on the ...

Phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitors boost bone outgrowth

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose C‐type natriuretic peptide (CNP) stimulates skeletal growth by acting on the growth plates of long bones, and a CNP variant is clinically used for achondroplasia treatment. We previously reported that CNP stimulates the autonomic Ca2+ influx mediated by TRPM7 channels in growth plate chondrocytes to facilitate extracellular ...

GPCR‐G protein signalling and its mutational landscape in cancer—Driver or passenger

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a crucial role in cellular signalling, regulating various physiological processes. Abnormal expression and mutations of GPCRs have been implicated in several types of cancer, influencing tumour initiation, progression and immune response.

Evidence that 5‐HT2A receptor signalling efficacy and not biased agonism differentiates serotonergic psychedelic from non‐psychedelic drugs

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Serotonergic psychedelic drugs are under investigation as therapies for various psychiatric disorders, including major depression. Although serotonergic psychedelic drugs are 5‐HT2A receptor agonists, some such agonists are not psychedelic, potentially due to differences in 5‐HT2A receptor ligand bias or signalling efficacy. Here,
