Abstract: G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise a large protein superfamily divided into six classes, rhodopsin-like (A), secretin receptor family (B), metabotropic glutamate (C), fungal mating pheromone receptors (D), cyclic AMP receptors (E) and frizzled (F). Until recently, GPCRs signaling was thought to emanate exclusively from the plasma membrane as a response to extracellular stimuli but several studies have challenged this view demonstrating that GPCRs can be present in intracellular localizations, including in the nuclei. A renewed interest in GPCR receptors’ superfamily emerged and intensive research occurred over recent decades, particularly regarding class A GPCRs, but some class B and C have also been explored. Nuclear GPCRs proved to be functional and capable of triggering identical and/or distinct signaling pathways associated with their counterparts on the cell surface bringing new insights into the relevance of nuclear GPCRs and highlighting the Citation: Gonçalves-Monteiro, S.; nucleus as an autonomous signaling organelle (triggered by GPCRs).

The effects of these endogenous modulators on pre- and post-synaptic processes are discussed. The contribution of purines to the processes of quantal and non- quantal secretion of acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft, as well as the influence of the postsynaptic effects of ATP and adenosine on the functioning of cholinergic receptors, are evaluated. As usual, the P2-receptor-mediated influence is minimal under physiological conditions, but it becomes very important in some pathophysiological situations such as hypothermia, stress, or ischemia. There are some data demonstrating the same in neuromuscular transmission. It is suggested that the role of endogenous purines is primarily to provide a safety factor for the efficiency of cholinergic neuromuscular transmission.

  • NADPH Oxidases (Version 2019.4) in the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology Database

University of Vermont, USA Abstract The two DUOX enzymes were originally identified as participating in the production of hydrogen peroxide as a pre-requisite for thyroid hormone biosynthesis in the thyroid gland [6]. NOX enzymes function to catalyse the reduction of molecular oxygen to superoxide and various other reactive oxygen species (ROS). They are subunits of the NADPH oxidase complex. Contents This is a citation summary for NADPH oxidases in the Guide to Pharmacology database (GtoPdb). It exists purely as an adjunct to the database to facilitate the recognition of citations to and from the database by citation analyzers. Readers will almost certainly want to visit the relevant sections of the database which are given here under database links. GtoPdb is an expert-driven guide to pharmacological targets and the substances that act on them. GtoPdb is a reference work which is most usefully represented as an on-line database. As in any publication this work should be appropriately cited, and the papers it cites should also be recognized. This document provides a citation for the relevant parts of the database, and also provides a reference list for the research cited by those parts. Please note that the database version for the citations given in GtoPdb are to the most recent preceding version in which the family or its subfamilies and targets were substantially changed.

  • Sex Steroids Regulate Skin Pigmentation Through Nonclassical
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Sex steroids regulate skin pigmentation through nonclassical membrane-bound receptors Christopher A Natale1, Elizabeth K Duperret1, Junqian Zhang1, Rochelle Sadeghi1, Ankit Dahal1, Kevin Tyler O’Brien2, Rosa Cookson2, Jeffrey D Winkler2, Todd W Ridky1* 1Department of Dermatology, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, United States; 2Department of Chemistry, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, United States Abstract The association between pregnancy and altered cutaneous pigmentation has been documented for over two millennia, suggesting that sex hormones play a role in regulating epidermal melanocyte (MC) homeostasis. Here we show that physiologic estrogen (17b-estradiol) and progesterone reciprocally regulate melanin synthesis. This is intriguing given that we also show that normal primary human MCs lack classical estrogen or progesterone receptors (ER or PR). Utilizing both genetic and pharmacologic approaches, we establish that sex steroid effects on human pigment synthesis are mediated by the membrane-bound, steroid hormone receptors G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER), and progestin and adipoQ receptor 7 (PAQR7). Activity of these receptors was activated or inhibited by synthetic estrogen or progesterone analogs that do not bind to ER or PR. As safe and effective treatment options for skin pigmentation disorders are limited, these specific GPER and PAQR7 ligands may represent a novel class of therapeutics.

They are members of the pentameric or Cys-loop LGIC superfamily comprising excitatory cation selective receptors such as nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, 5-HT3 receptors and zinc-activated channels, and inhibitory anion-selective receptors such as GABAA receptors, strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors and invertebrate glutamate- gated chloride channels (Thompson et al., 2010; Baenziger and Corringer, 2011). Receptors of this superfamily require five subunits to assemble a single ion channel. The ion channel may be homomeric formed by five identical subunits as is the case of GABA-ρ receptors, or heteromeric, consisting of a combination of at least two different subunits, such as GABAA receptors (Olsen and Sieghart, 2009).
