In vitro profiling of orphan G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) constitutive activity. | LitMetric

In vitro profiling of orphan G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) constitutive activity.

AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

Background And Purpose: Members of the GPCR family are targeted by a significant fraction of the available FDA-approved drugs. However, the physiological role and pharmacological properties of many GPCRs remain unknown, representing untapped potential in drug design. Of particular interest are ~100 less-studied GPCRs known as orphans because their endogenous ligands are unknown. Intriguingly, disease-causing mutations identified in patients, together with animal studies, have demonstrated that many orphan receptors play crucial physiological roles and, thus, represent attractive drug targets.

Experimental Approach: The majority of deorphanized GPCRs demonstrate coupling to G . However, a limited number of techniques allow the detection of intrinsically small constitutive activity associated with G protein activation, which represents a significant barrier in our ability to study orphan GPCR signalling. Using luciferase reporter assays, we effectively detected constitutive G , G and G protein signalling by unliganded receptors and introducing various G protein chimeras, we provide a novel, highly sensitive tool capable of identifying G coupling in unliganded orphan GPCRs.

Key Results: Using this approach, we measured the constitutive activity of the entire class C GPCR family that includes eight orphan receptors and a subset of 20 prototypical class A GPCR members, including 11 orphans. Excitingly, this approach illuminated the G protein coupling profile of eight orphan GPCRs (GPR22, GPR137b, GPR88, GPR156, GPR158, GPR179, GPRC5D and GPRC6A) previously linked to pathophysiological processes.

Conclusion And Implications: We provide a new platform that could be utilized in ongoing studies in orphan receptor signalling and de-orphanization efforts.

Constitutively active receptor ADGRA3 signaling induces adipose thermogenesis.

Elife

December 2024

Shenzhen Key Laboratory of Systems Medicine for inflammatory diseases, School of Medicine, Shenzhen Campus of Sun Yat-Sen University, Sun Yat-Sen University, Shenzhen, China.

The induction of adipose thermogenesis plays a critical role in maintaining body temperature and improving metabolic homeostasis to combat obesity. β3-adrenoceptor (β3-AR) is widely recognized as a canonical β-adrenergic G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that plays a crucial role in mediating adipose thermogenesis in mice. Nonetheless, the limited expression of β3-AR in human adipocytes restricts its clinical application.

Glutathione (GSH) is an abundant thiol-containing tripeptide that functions in redox homeostasis, protein folding, and iron metabolism. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, GSH depletion leads to increased sensitivity to oxidants and other toxic compounds, disruption of Fe-S cluster biogenesis, and eventually cell death. GSH pools are supplied by intracellular biosynthesis and GSH import from the extracellular environment.

Background: Cellular prion protein (PrP) is a widely expressed membrane-anchored glycoprotein, which has been associated with the development and progression of several types of human malignancies, controlling cancer stem cell activity. However, the different molecular mechanisms regulated by PrP in normal and tumor cells have not been characterized yet.

Methods: To assess the role of PrP in patient-derived glioblastoma stem cell (GSC)-enriched cultures, we generated cell lines in which PrP was either overexpressed or down-regulated and investigated, in 2D and 3D cultures, its role in cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.

Membrane structure-responsive lipid scramblase activity of the TMEM63/OSCA family.

FEBS Lett

December 2024

Department of Medical Chemistry, Medical Research Laboratory, Institute of Integrated Research, Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan.

Phospholipids are asymmetrically distributed in the plasma membrane (PM), and scramblases disrupt this asymmetry by shuffling phospholipids. We recently identified mouse Tmem63b as a membrane structure-responsive scramblase. Tmem63b belongs to the TMEM63/OSCA family of ion channels; however, the conservation of the scramblase activity within this family remains unclear.

The constitutive (ligand-independent) signaling of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is being increasingly appreciated as an integral aspect of their function; however, it can be technically hard to detect for poorly characterized, e.g. orphan, receptors of the cAMP-inhibitory Gi-coupled (GiPCR) family.
