Drug Discovery Opportunities at the Endothelin B Receptor-Related Orphan G Protein-Coupled Receptors, GPR37 and GPR37L1.

Frontiers in pharmacology

Smith NJ.
PMID: 26635605
Front Pharmacol. 2015 Nov 17;6:275. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2015.00275. eCollection 2015.

Orphan G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent a largely untapped resource for the treatment of a variety of diseases, despite sophisticated advances in drug discovery. Two promising orphan GPCRs are the endothelin B receptor-like proteins, GPR37 [ET(B)R-LP, Pael-R] and GPR37L1...

Central mediators involved in the febrile response: effects of antipyretic drugs.

Temperature (Austin, Tex.)

Zampronio AR, Soares DM, Souza GE.
PMID: 27227071
Temperature (Austin). 2015 Oct 13;2(4):506-21. doi: 10.1080/23328940.2015.1102802. eCollection 2015.

Fever is a complex signal of inflammatory and infectious diseases. It is generally initiated when peripherally produced endogenous pyrogens reach areas that surround the hypothalamus. These peripheral endogenous pyrogens are cytokines that are produced by leukocytes and other cells,...

Endothelin inhibits renin release from juxtaglomerular cells via endothelin receptors A and B via a transient receptor potential canonical-mediated pathway.

Physiological reports

Ortiz-Capisano MC.
PMID: 25524278
Physiol Rep. 2014 Dec 18;2(12). doi: 10.14814/phy2.12240. Print 2014 Dec 01.

Renin is the rate-limiting step in the production of angiotensin II: a critical element in the regulation of blood pressure and in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Renin release from the juxtaglomerular (JG) cell is stimulated by the second messenger...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) on plasma nitric oxide (NO), Endothelin 1 (ET1), high sensitive C-reactive protein (HSCRP) and quality of life (QoL) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).METHODS: We conducted a pilot...

Acute Meningitis.

Current infectious disease reports

Pfister HW, Koedel U, Paul R.

Curr Infect Dis Rep. 1999 Jun;1(2):153-159. doi: 10.1007/s11908-996-0023-7.

Recent major epidemiologic trends in bacterial meningitis include a dramatic decline in the incidence of Haemophilus influenzae meningitis since the introduction of the protein-conjugated H. influenzae vaccines, and a worldwide increase in infections with antibiotic-resistant strains of bacterial pathogens....

Endothelin-1 production by normal human cultured keratinocytes and its regulation.

Mediators of inflammation

Inoue H, Wakisaka N, Tane N, Ando K, Isono E, Yamanaka M, Aihara M, Ishida H.
PMID: 18475592
Mediators Inflamm. 1994;3(6):433-7. doi: 10.1155/S096293519400061X.

The possibility that cultured keratinocytes produce endothelins were investigated. The results showed that cultured keratinocytes derived from normal human skin produce endothelin-1. Moreover, keratinocyte endothelin-1 production was completely inhibited by the presence of actinomycin D in the medium. As...

Activity of endothelial factors on myocardial inotropy.

Minerva cardioangiologica

Folino A, Rastaldo R, Cappello S, Chiribiri A, Pagliaro P, Losano G.
PMID: 21285922
Minerva Cardioangiol. 2011 Feb 01; Epub 2011 Feb 01.

Both nitric oxide (NO) and endothelins can either increase or decrease myocardial contractility. A positive inotropic effect occurs in response to low NO concentrations, whereas a negative effect is brought about by high concentrations. Activation of protein kinase A...

Endothelin and neonatal capsaicin regulate gastric resistance to injury in BDL rats.

World journal of gastrointestinal pathophysiology

Regulation of cerebral blood flow.

International journal of vascular medicine

Peterson EC, Wang Z, Britz G.
PMID: 21808738
Int J Vasc Med. 2011;2011:823525. doi: 10.1155/2011/823525. Epub 2011 Jul 25.

The control of cerebral blood flow is complex, and only beginning to be elucidated. Studies have identified three key regulatory paradigms. The first is cerebral pressure autoregulation, which maintains a constant flow in the face of changing cerebral perfusion...
