Therefore, sst4 is considered to be a novel target for drug development in pain including chronic neuropathy, which is an emerging unmet medical need. Here, we examined the in silico binding, the sst4-linked G-protein activation on stable receptor expressing cells (1 nM to 10 µM), and the effects of our novel pyrrolo-pyrimidine molecules in mouse inflammatory and neuropathic pain models. All four of the tested compounds (C1–C4) bind to the same binding site of the sst4 receptor with similar interaction energy to high-affinity reference sst4 agonists, and they all induce G-protein activation.

The expanding use of immunohistochemistry to detect somatostatin receptors is to date not paralleled by an accurate methodological setting and standardized interpretation of the results. A multicentric study was designed to compare somatostatin receptor immunohistochemical expression with in vivo scintigraphic data and verify its usefulness in the clinical management of neuroendocrine tumors. After methodological setting by testing different somatostatin receptor antibodies, 107 cases of neuroendocrine tumors with available somatostatin receptor scintigraphy data and pathological material were retrospectively analyzed for somatostatin receptor types 2A, 3 and 5 immunohis- tochemical expression, and compared with scintigraphic images and, whenever available, with the clinical response to somatostatin analogue treatment.

Radiolabeled somatostatin receptor analogs are by far the most advanced radiopharmaceuticals for diagnosis and therapy (radiotheranostics) of NENs. Their clinical success emerged receptor-targeted radiolabeled peptides as an important class of radiopharmaceuticals and it paved the way for the investigation of other radioligand-receptor systems. Besides the somatostatin receptors (sstr), other receptors have also been linked to NENs and quite a number of potential radiolabeled peptides have been derived from them. The Glucagon- Like Peptide-1 Receptor (GLP-1R) is highly expressed in benign insulinomas, the Cholecystokinin 2 (CCK2)/Gastrin receptor is expressed in different NENs, in particular medullary thyroid cancer, and the Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) receptor was found to be expressed in gastrointestinal and bronchial NENs, where interestingly, it is present in most of the sstr-negative and GLP-1R-negative NENs. Also in the field of sstr targeting new discoveries brought into light an alternative approach with the use of radiolabeled somatostatin receptor antagonists, instead of the clinically used agonists.

  • Fine-Tuning of GPCR Activity by Receptor-Interacting Proteins
    REVIEWS Fine-tuning of GPCR activity by receptor-interacting proteins Stefanie L. Ritter and Randy A. Hall Abstract | G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate physiological responses to various ligands, such as hormones, neurotransmitters and sensory stimuli. The signalling and trafficking properties of GPCRs are often highly malleable depending on the cellular context. Such fine-tuning of GPCR function can be attributed in many cases to receptor-interacting proteins that are differentially expressed in distinct cell types. In some cases these GPCR-interacting partners directly mediate receptor signalling, whereas in other cases they act mainly as scaffolds to modulate G protein-mediated signalling. Furthermore, GPCR-interacting proteins can have a big impact on the regulation of GPCR trafficking, localization and/or pharmacological properties. Agonist G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest arrestin-mediated recruitment of signalling proteins to 2 A molecule that binds to and family of transmembrane proteins in vertebrates and they activated GPCRs .

At least 30 human GPCRs contain a Type I PSD- Received in revised form 95/DLG/Zo-1 (PDZ) ligand in their distal C-terminal domain; this four amino acid motif of X-[S/T]-X-[␸] 28 December 2015 sequence facilitates interactions with PDZ domain-containing proteins. Because PDZ protein interactions Accepted 1 January 2016 have profound effects on GPCR ligand pharmacology, cellular localization, signal-transduction effector Available online 7 January 2016 coupling and duration of activity, we analyzed the importance of Type I PDZ ligands for the function of 23 full-length and PDZ-ligand truncated (PDZ) human GPCRs in cultured human cells. SNAP-epitope tag Keywords: polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed most Type I PDZ GPCRs exist as both monomers and mul- G protein-coupled receptor timers; removal of the PDZ ligand played minimal role in multimer formation.

    ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 08 July 2021 doi: 10.3389/fonc.2021.710900 Somatostatin Receptors and Chemokine Receptor CXCR4 in Lymphomas: A Histopathological Review of Six Lymphoma Subtypes † † Tiina Juntikka 1* , Samuli Vaittinen 2 , Tero Vahlberg 3, Sirkku Jyrkkiö 1 and Heikki Minn 1 1 Department of Oncology and Radiotherapy, Turku University Hospital, University of Turku, Turku, Finland, 2 Department of Pathology, Turku University Hospital, University of Turku, Turku, Finland, 3 Department of Clinical Medicine, Biostatistics, University of Turku, Turku, Finland Edited by: Background: Somatostatin receptors (SSTR) and chemokine receptor CXCR4 are Thomas Ollila, Warren Alpert Medical School of expressed in lymphomas, while the abundance is known to be heterogeneous in Brown University, United States different subtypes of lymphomas. Targeting tumor cells expressing these receptors Reviewed by: might add to therapeutic opportunities while radiolabeled ligands for both imaging and Katelyn Dannheim, therapy have been developed. The aim of this study was to establish SSTR subtype 2, 3 Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, United States and 5 and also CXCR4 status immunohistochemically in six different lymphoma subtypes: Minggang Fang, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), mantle cell lymphoma University of Massachusetts Medical School, United States (MCL), mucosa-associated marginal B-cell lymphoma (MALT), Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) *Correspondence: and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Tiina Juntikka Material and Methods: This study included a total of 103 lymphoma patients (24 DLBCL, timaru@utu.fi 22 FL, 18 HL, 9 MALT, 20 MCL and 10 PTCL) diagnosed in the Southwest hospital district †These authors have contributed equally to this work of Finland during 2010-2019.
