Biochemical pharmacology of the positive allosteric modulation of the GABAb receptor "in Vitro" and "in Vivo" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Allosteric modulators of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) interact with binding sites on the receptor molecule that are topographically distinct from the classic orthosteric site.

Allosteric Modulation of Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2010
An allosteric modulator is a ligand that binds to an allosteric site on the receptor and changes receptor conformation to produce increase (positive cooperativity) or decrease (negative cooperativity) in the binding or action of an orthosteric agonist (e.

Conformational transitions and allosteric modulation in a heteromeric glycine receptor

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Glycine receptors (GlyR) are a critical postsynaptic component of spinal neurons. Here, the auhtors present cryo-EM structures of a heteromeric GlyR in the presence of an antagonist, agonist and agonist with a positive allosteric modulator.

Development of allosteric modulators of GPCRs for treatment of CNS disorders

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2014
The discovery of allosteric modulators of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) provides a promising new strategy with potential for developing novel treatments for a variety of central nervous system (CNS) disorders.

Allosterism vs. Orthosterism: Recent Findings and Future Perspectives on A2B AR Physio-Pathological Implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
The development of GPCR (G-coupled protein receptor) allosteric modulators has attracted increasing interest in the last decades. The use of allosteric modulators in therapy offers several advantages with respect to orthosteric ones, as they can fine ...

p185(BCR/ABL) has a lower sensitivity than p210(BCR/ABL) to the allosteric inhibitor GNF-2 in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphatic leukemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: The t(9;22) translocation leads to the formation of the chimeric breakpoint cluster region/c-abl oncogene 1 (BCR/ABL) fusion gene on der22, the Philadelphia chromosome.

PTK7 is a positive allosteric modulator of GPR133 signaling in glioblastoma

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: The adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor GPR133 (ADGRD1) supports growth of the brain malignancy glioblastoma. How the extracellular interactome of GPR133 in glioblastoma modulates signaling remains unknown.

Allosteric inhibition enhances the efficacy of ABL kinase inhibitors to target unmutated BCR-ABL and BCR-ABL-T315I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphatic leukemia (Ph + ALL) are caused by the t(9;22), which fuses BCR to ABL resulting in deregulated ABL-tyrosine kinase activity.

Allosteric modulators enhance agonist efficacy by increasing the residence time of a GPCR in the active state

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Here, the authors use smFRET to assess the structural dynamics of metabotropic glutamate receptor mGlu2 and show that a positive allosteric modulator or the Gi protein stabilize mGlu2 in the glutamate-induced active state, leading to the full activation ...
