A GPS-like technique has been used to track G protein-coupled receptor movement, revealing how these essential receptors function. Although G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are crucial to the ...

A research team of the University Medical Center Mainz has succeeded in observing for the first time how G protein-coupled ...

Taste, pain, or response to stress — nearly all essential functions in the human body are regulated by molecular switches called G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Researchers at the University of ...

G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) has emerged as a pivotal regulator in the pathophysiology of heart failure. GRK2 mediates the phosphorylation of activated G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs ...

The interplay between G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and fatty acid metabolism is emerging as a pivotal aspect in the pathogenesis and treatment of type 2 diabetes. Receptors such as free fatty ...

A recent study published in Engineering delves into the complex mechanisms of drug addiction, highlighting the crucial role of astrocytic G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). This research offers ...

Lefkowitz started to trace cell receptors in 1968. Using radioactivity, he managed to unveil several receptors, including one for adrenalin, the β-adrenergic receptor. His team then extracted the ...

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital today announced a nearly $13 million investment toward a new research collaboration with scientists at Columbia University, Duke University and Stanford ...
