The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2017/18 provides concise overviews of the key properties nearly 1800 human drug targets with an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links open access knowledgebase and their ligands (www.guidetopharmacology.org), which more detailed views target ligand properties. Although represents approximately 400 pages, material presented is substantially reduced compared information website. It a permanent, citable, point-in-time record that will...
Activation of seven-transmembrane (7TM) receptors by agonists does not always lead to uniform activation all signaling pathways mediated a given receptor. Relative other ligands, many are "biased" toward producing subsets receptor behaviors. A hallmark such "functional selectivity" is cell type dependence; this poses particular problem for the profiling in whole test systems removed from therapeutic one(s). Such response-specific cell-based variability makes it difficult guide medicinal...
The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2021/22 is the fifth in this series of biennial publications. provides concise overviews, mostly tabular format, key properties nearly 1900 human drug targets with an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links open access knowledgebase source and their ligands ( www.guidetopharmacology.org ), which more detailed views target ligand properties. Although constitutes over 500 pages, material presented substantially reduced compared...
We investigated the pharmacology of three novel compounds, Org 27569 (5-chloro-3-ethyl-1<i>H</i>-indole-2-carboxylic acid [2-(4-piperidin-1-yl-phenyl)-ethyl]-amide), 27759 (3-ethyl-5-fluoro-1<i>H</i>-indole-2-carboxylic [2-94-dimethylamino-phenyl)-ethyl]-amide), and 29647 (1-benzyl-pyrrolidin-3-yl)-amide, 2-enedioic salt), at cannabinoid CB<sub>1</sub> receptor. In equilibrium binding assays, compounds significantly increased receptor agonist [<sup>3</sup>H]CP 55,940...
We previously identified the G-protein-coupled receptor Mas, encoded by Mas proto-oncogene, as an endogenous for heptapeptide angiotensin-(1-7); however, is also suggested to be involved in actions of angiotensin II. therefore tested whether this could mediated indirectly through interaction with II type 1 receptor, AT1.In transfected mammalian cells, was not activated II; AT1 receptor-mediated, II-induced production inositol phosphates and mobilization intracellular Ca2+ diminished 50%...
