G-Protein–Coupled Receptors in Heart Disease

Abstract: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a central physiological role in the regulation of cardiac function in both health and disease and thus represents one of the largest class of surface receptors targeted by drugs. Several antagonists of GPCRs, such as β adrenergic receptors and angiotensin II receptors, are now considered standard of therapy for a wide range of cardiovascular disease such as hypertension, coronary artery disease, and heart failure. While the mechanism of action for GPCRs was thought to b… Show more

“…Chronic stimulation of these receptors, including stimulation of badrenergic receptors (bARs) by catecholamines, drives cardiac hypertrophy and ventricular remodeling, ultimately leading to heart failure. The efficacy of b-blocker therapy for treatment of heart failure results, at least in part, by ameliorating chronic bAR stimulation in the heart (4,5).…”

“…Bk is a peptide that acts through a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) and is one of the most important mediators of PC [23]. It is well known that receptors belonging to the GPCR family trigger PC [24]. In this regard, it has been demonstrated that adenosine and opioid receptors mediate PC-induced cytoprotection in the heart.…”

“…GBP subunit alpha-11, called as "G protein", plays a central physiological role in the regulation of cardiac contractility by neurohumoral signals (37,38). In addition, G proteins modulate the binding of angiotensin-II to adrenal cortex receptors in the homeostatic regulation of the cardiovascular system (39,40).…”
