The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2023/24: G protein-coupled receptors
- 2023

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2023/24 is the sixth in this series of biennial publications. The Concise Guide provides concise overviews, mostly in tabular format, of the key properties of approximately 1800 drug targets, and about 6000 interactions with about 3900 ligands. There is an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links to the open access knowledgebase source of drug targets and their ligands (), which provides more detailed views of target and ligand properties. Although the Concise Guide constitutes almost 500 pages, the material presented is substantially reduced compared to information and links presented on the website. It provides a permanent, citable, point-in-time record that will survive database updates. The full contents of this section can be found at . G protein-coupled receptors are one of the six major pharmacological targets into which the Guide is divided, with the others being: ion channels, nuclear hormone receptors, catalytic receptors, enzymes and transporters. These are presented with nomenclature guidance and summary information on the best available pharmacological tools, alongside key references and suggestions for further reading. The landscape format of the Concise Guide is designed to facilitate comparison of related targets from material contemporary to mid-2023, and supersedes data presented in the 2021/22, 2019/20, 2017/18, 2015/16 and 2013/14 Concise Guides and previous Guides to Receptors and Channels. It is produced in close conjunction with the Nomenclature and Standards Committee of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (NC-IUPHAR), therefore, providing official IUPHAR classification and nomenclature for human drug targets, where appropriate.

Altered reactivity to norepinephrine through COX-2 induction by vascular injury in hypercholesterolemic rabbits
- 2009

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Although long-term use of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors may be associated with increased cardiovascular risk, their effects on vascular reactivity in atherosclerosis has remained largely unexplored. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of COX-2 induced by an atherosclerotic process, in the local control of vascular tone. New Zealand White rabbits were fed 0.3% cholesterol and subjected to balloon injury of the abdominal aorta. After 2 wk, the aorta was removed and used for organ bath experiments and immunohistochemistry, and the prostaglandins released were measured using enzyme immunoassays. Hypercholesterolemia and vascular injury significantly increased the thickness of the intimal layer, which was associated with an induction of COX-2 immunoreactivity throughout the aortic wall. In these preparations, a significant decrease of the maximal contractions induced by norepinephrine was observed. The norepinephrine-induced contractions of atherosclerotic preparations were restored by the COX inhibitors DuP-697 (0.5 μmol/l) and indomethacin (1.7 μmol/l), to similar contractions as was observed in aortic preparations derived from healthy rabbits. Norepinephrine stimulation of the abdominal aorta was accompanied by increased levels of prostaglandin I2 but not of prostaglandin E2, prostaglandin D2, or thromboxane A2 in atherosclerotic compared with normal aorta. Selective COX-2 inhibition significantly decreased the prostaglandin I2 release from atherosclerotic aorta but had no effect on the prostaglandin release from aortic preparations derived from normal rabbits. These observations suggest that the local induction of COX-2 during atherosclerosis decreased the sensitivity to norepinephrine and that COX-2 inhibitors may increase vascular reactivity at sites of atherosclerotic lesions.
