Deconvolution of complex G protein-coupled receptor signaling in live cells using dynamic mass redistribution measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Label-free biosensor technology based on dynamic mass redistribution (DMR) of cellular constituents promises to translate GPCR signaling into complex optical 'fingerprints' in real time in living cells.

A Novel extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor regulates virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
Next to the two-component and quorum sensing systems, cell-surface signaling (CSS) has been recently identified as an important regulatory system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Role of sigma-1 receptors in neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2015
Neurodegenerative diseases with distinct genetic etiologies and pathological phenotypes appear to share common mechanisms of neuronal cellular dysfunction, including excitotoxicity, calcium dysregulation, oxidative damage, ER stress and mitochondrial ...

Functional selectivity of GPCR-directed drug action through location bias. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are increasingly recognized to operate from intracellular membranes as well as the plasma membrane. The β 2 -adrenergic GPCR can activate G s -linked cyclic AMP (G s -cAMP) signaling from endosomes.

Effect of sigma-1 receptor activation on corticosterone-induced mitochondrial damage in astrocytes

open access: yes徐州医科大学学报
Objective To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of sigma-1 receptors on corticosterone-induced mitochondrial damage in astrocytes. Methods A corticosterone-induced primary astrocyte damage model was established, and the sigma-1 receptor ...

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2/3 (mGluR2/3) activation suppresses TRPV1 sensitization in mouse, but not human sensory neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The use of human tissue to validate putative analgesic targets identified in rodents is a promising strategy for improving the historically poor translational record of preclinical pain research.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Design, Synthesis, and Antidepressant Activity Study of Novel Aryl Piperazines Targeting Both 5-HT1A and Sigma-1 Receptors

open access: yesPharmaceutical Fronts, 2021
A total of 20 novel aryl piperazine derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their structures were confirmed by mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses. Their 5-HT1A and sigma-1 receptor affinities were determined, and six of them

The pharmacology of sigma-1 receptors [PDF]

open access: yesPharmacology & Therapeutics, 2009
Originally considered an enigmatic protein, the sigma-1 receptor has recently been identified as a unique ligand-regulated molecular chaperone in the endoplasmic reticulum of cells. This discovery causes us to look back at the many proposed roles of this receptor, even before its molecular function was identified, in many diseases such as ...
