大麻素受体1/食欲素受体1-G蛋白偶联受体异聚体及其交叉激活作用研究进展

Advances in CB1/OX1-GPCR heterodimer and their cross-talk interaction

  • 摘要: 大麻素受体1(cannabinoid receptor 1,CB1)和食欲素受体1(orexin receptor 1,OX1)同属G蛋白偶联受体(G-proteincoupled receptors,GPCRs),两者在体内分布广泛,均参与调节摄食、能量平衡、睡眠和觉醒、食物和药物的成瘾性等。两者作用位点接近,足以形成异聚体共同参与各项功能调节,多项研究表明,CB1/OX1存在交叉激活作用。本文对CB1和OX1的作用以及CB1/OX1异聚体的交叉激活作用进行综述,以期对其有更深入的认识,从而对CB1/OX1-GPCR新药研发起到一定指导作用。

     

    Abstract: Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) and orexin receptor 1 (OX1) belong to the GPCRs superfamily, and both of them are widely distributed in the body. They participate in modulating food-intake, energy balance, sleep/awake and food/drug addiction, etc. Former experiments reveal that the distribution of CB1 and OX1 are close enough to form heterodimer. They have "cross-talk" interaction in many aspects. The function of CB1/OX1 and their “cross-talk” interaction are summarized in this article, in order to make a deeply recognition of CB1/OX1-GPCR which may offer entirely novel sets of potential therapeutic targets.
