Functional coupling of the human dopamine D2 receptor with Gαi1, Gαi2, Gαi3 and Gαo G proteins: evidence for agonist regulation of G protein selectivity

Abstract: Several agonists were tested for their ability to stimulate [ 35 S]-GTPgS binding to membranes coexpressing the receptor and various G proteins. All the compounds tested showed agonist activity in preparations expressing G i3 and G o . However, for G i2 and G i1 preparations, compounds such as S-(7)-3-PPP and p-tyramine were unable to stimulate [ 35 S]-GTPgS binding. 4 Most of the compounds showed higher relative e cacies (compared to dopamine) and higher potencies in the preparation expressing G o .

“…For one, it has been shown that dopamine D 2 receptors modulate the level of cAMP in mice striatum via isoform 5 of AC. However, D 2 receptors preferentially couple to the G o subtype of G-proteins (29), which, as shown previously, have practically no influence on AC5 activity in vitro (30). Thus, it is possible that the effect of D 2 receptors on cAMP accumulation is relatively small compared to the basal level of AC activation and therefore remains hidden in a given system.…”

“…In the simplest view, these compounds would induce similar increases in activity of mGluR5 regardless of the signaling pathway or cell population involved. However, a growing body of evidence suggests that different traditional orthosteric agonists can differentially activate different signaling pathways of a single GPCR, a phenomenon referred to as agonist receptor trafficking (Berg et al, 1998;Brink et al, 2000;Gazi et al, 2003). Based on this, it is possible that allosteric potentiators of mGluRs could differentially regulate coupling of these receptors to different signaling pathways.…”

“…Membranes of wild-type Sf9 cells or of Sf9 cells infected with DmDopEcR-GFP were prepared as described previously (Gazi et al, 2003 Competition experiments were done in duplicate, with increasing concentrations of ligand from 1 fmol to 1 mM and a radioligand concentra-tion equivalent to its K D (10 nM). When (Ϫ)-AD, DA, and (Ϫ)-NA were used, incubations were performed in the dark, and 0.1 M ascorbic acid was added to the binding buffer to prevent oxidation.…”
