Abstract The development of therapeutic agonists for G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is hampered by the propensity GPCRs to couple multiple intracellular signalling pathways. This promiscuous coupling leads numerous downstream cellular effects, some which are therapeutically undesirable. especially case adenosine A 1 (A Rs) whose clinical potential undermined sedation and cardiorespiratory depression caused conventional agonists. We have discovered that R-selective agonist,...

Abstract The adenosine A 3 receptor (A R) belongs to a family of four (AR) subtypes which all play distinct roles throughout the body. R antagonists have been described as potential treatments for numerous diseases including asthma. Given similarity between (adenosine receptors) orthosteric binding sites, obtaining highly selective is challenging but critical task. Here we screen 39 R, using agonist-induced inhibition cAMP. Positive hits were assessed AR subtype selectivity through cAMP...

Abstract Agonist bias occurs when different ligands produce distinct signalling outputs acting at the same receptor. However, its physiological relevance is not always clear. Using primary human cells and gene editing techniques, we demonstrate endogenous agonist with consequences for calcitonin receptor-like receptor, CLR. By switching receptor-activity modifying protein (RAMP) associated CLR can “re-route” pathways activated by agonists gene-related peptide (CGRP), adrenomedullin (AM) 2...

Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) receptor is a class B1 GPCR, that responds to GIP and physiologically potentiates glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Like most GPCRs, GIPR has been shown interact with RAMPs, yet the effects of RAMPs on its signalling trafficking remain poorly understood. We demonstrate modulate G protein activation internalisation profiles. RAMP3 reduced s cAMP production but retained at cell surface, this was associated prolonged ERK1/2 phosphorylation...

Abstract Enhanced/prolonged cAMP signalling has been suggested as a suppressor of cancer proliferation. Interestingly, two key modulators that elevate cAMP, the A 2A receptor (A R) and phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A), are differentially co-expressed in various types non-small lung (NSCLC) cell-lines. Thus, finding dual-target compounds, which simultaneously agonists at R whilst also inhibiting PDE10A, could be novel anti-proliferative approach. Using ligand- structure-based modelling combined...
