  • 2-Adrenergic Receptor Is Determined by Conformational Equilibrium in the Transmembrane Region
    ARTICLE Received 21 Mar 2012 | Accepted 2 Aug 2012 | Published 4 Sep 2012 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms2046 Efficacy of theβ 2-adrenergic receptor is determined by conformational equilibrium in the transmembrane region Yutaka Kofuku1,2, Takumi Ueda1, Junya Okude1, Yutaro Shiraishi1, Keita Kondo1, Masahiro Maeda3, Hideki Tsujishita3 & Ichio Shimada1,4 Many drugs that target G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) induce or inhibit their signal transduction with different strengths, which affect their therapeutic properties. However, the mechanism underlying the differences in the signalling levels is still not clear, although several structures of GPCRs complexed with ligands determined by X-ray crystallography are available. Here we utilized NMR to monitor the signals from the methionine residue at position 82 in neutral antagonist- and partial agonist-bound states of β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR), which are correlated with the conformational changes of the transmembrane regions upon activation. We show that this residue exists in a conformational equilibrium between the inverse agonist- bound states and the full agonist-bound state, and the population of the latter reflects the signal transduction level in each ligand-bound state. These findings provide insights into the multi-level signalling of β2AR and other GPCRs, including the basal activity, and the mechanism of signal transduction mediated by GPCRs. 1 Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Hongo 7-3-1, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-0033, Japan. 2 Japan Biological Informatics Consortium (JBIC), Tokyo 135-0064, Japan. 3 Shionogi Co., Ltd., Discovery Research Laboratories, Osaka 561-0825, Japan. 4 Biomedicinal Information Research Center (BIRC), National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Aomi 2-41-6, Koto-ku, Tokyo 135-0064, Japan.

Academic Editor: Krishan Kumar Received: 31 July 2020; Accepted: 1 September 2020; Published: 3 September 2020 Abstract: Epinephrine (E) and norepinephrine (NE) play diverse roles in our body’s physiology. In addition to their role in the peripheral nervous system (PNS), E/NE systems including their receptors are critical to the central nervous system (CNS) and to mental health. Various antipsychotics, antidepressants, and psychostimulants exert their influence partially through different subtypes of adrenergic receptors (ARs). Despite the potential of pharmacological applications and long history of research related to E/NE systems, research efforts to identify the roles of ARs in the human brain taking advantage of imaging have been limited by the lack of subtype specific ligands for ARs and brain penetrability issues. This review provides an overview of the development of positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers for in vivo imaging of AR system in the brain.

Academic Editors: Alessandra Gentili and Chiara Fanali Received: 31 January 2019; Accepted: 19 February 2019; Published: 25 February 2019 Abstract: This paper presents an application of high performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS) for the analysis of 27 β-blockers and metabolites in milk powder. Homogenized milk power samples were extracted by acetonitrile and purified by using Oasis PRiME HLB solid-phase extraction cartridges. The Ascentis® C8 chromatographic column was used to separate the analytes. The quantification was achieved by using matrix-matched standard calibration curves with carazolol-d7 and propranolol-d7 as the internal standards. The results show an exceptional linear relationship with the concentrations of analytes over wide concentration ranges (0.5–500 µg kg−1) as all the fitting coefficients of determination r2 are > 0.995. All the limits of detection (LODs) and quantitation (LOQs) values were within the respective range of 0.2–1.5 µg kg−1 and 0.5–5.0 µg kg−1.
