Description: Leukotrienes are metabolic products of arachidonic acid formed by the action of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), with the principal products being leukotrienes C4 (LTC4) and B4 (LTB4). Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) stimulates leukocyte functions including lysosomal enzyme release, adhesion, and aggregation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. LTB4 has been implicated as a potent mediator of inflammatory diseases and immunoregulation. The cysteinyl leukotrienes (LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4) are formed by addition of cysteine derivatives to LTA4. The conversion of LTA4 to LTC4 by the enzyme LTC4 synthase limits the rate of cysteinyl leukotriene formation. Cysteinyl leukotrienes are potent lipid mediators in inflammation, inducing smooth muscle contractions and increased capillary permeability.

Description: Endothelins are vasoactive peptides that exist in three forms (ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3), and function in the maintenance of vascular tone via two identified seven transmembrane-spanning domain-containing G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), endothelin A (ETA) and endothelin B (ETB). The human ETA receptor is primarily expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells, including those of the heart (also in myocytes), lung, and brain, and its stimulation generally results in vasoconstriction. Activation of ETA receptors can be stimulated by binding of ET-1 and ET-2, but not ET-3. triggering the release of vasorelaxive factors such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostanoids from endothelial cells. Human ETB receptors are primarily expressed in endothelial cells lining the vessel walls of the lungs, heart, and brain, and in contrast to ETA receptors, stimulation generally results in transient vasodilation. Activation of ETB receptors can be stimulated by binding of all three endothelins, triggering the release of vasorelaxive factors such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostanoids from endothelial cells. Both ETA and ETB receptors signal primarily via coupling to Gq/11 alpha subunits, although Gi/o and Gs coupling are also established mechanisms of endothelin signaling, resulting in stimulation of phospholipases C, A2, and D.

Description: Leukotrienes are metabolic products of arachidonic acid formed by the action of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), with the principal products being leukotrienes C4 (LTC4) and B4 (LTB4). LTB4 is a dihydroxy-leukotriene produced in a variety of cells including eosinophils, neutrophils, platelets, and vascular cells, and is a potent leukocyte chemoattractant known to regulate leukocyte activation, cytokine secretion, inflammatory gene transcription, and IgE synthesis. As such, LTB4 has been implicated in a number of disease pathologies including atherosclerosis, asthma, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease. The many actions of LTB4 are associated with two identified mammalian receptors, BLT1 and BLT2. BLT1 is a high-affinity LTB4 receptor expressed on peripheral leukocytes, while BLT2 is a more ubiquitously expressed low affinity LTB4 receptor whose function is not well understood. The BLT1 receptor is transiently expressed by antigen-primed T-cells in humans, and its expression is known to play a critical role in collagen-induced arthritis in mice.

Description: Adipose tissue is the source for a variety of bioactive molecules that regulate metabolism and immunity termed adipokines, most of which are elevated in the circulation of obese individuals. Adiponectin functions as an insulin sensitizing factor, resulting in reduced hepatic glucose production, increased glucose uptake in the muscle, and increased fatty acid oxidation in the liver and muscle. In contrast to most adipokines, adiponectin is detected at high levels in normal human plasma, but is often reduced in obese subjects and in those with increased insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Due to its suggested protective role in insulin resistance, adiponectin may be a useful pharmacological target for various metabolic diseases.

Description: The enzymatic conversion of arginine to citrulline by nitric oxide synthase (NO Synthase) leads to the formation of nitric oxide (NO). Peroxynitrite is formed following reaction of NO with superoxide, producing a potent oxidant that reacts with a variety of biological molecules, including tyrosine residues in proteins. Tyrosine nitration can inactivate enzymes and receptors that depend on tyrosine residues for their activity. Nitration prevents phosphorylation of tyrosine residues important for signal transduction.

Description: Cyclins are a family of proteins which function as the regulatory subunits of cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) holoenzymes, mediating entry into and progression through the cell cycle. Each cyclin is expressed in a temporal fashion during the cell cycle, partnering with a specific Cdk to activate its protein kinase activity. The most well defined mitotic cyclins are: cyclin D, which partners with cdks 4 and 6 during early G1 phase; cyclin E, which activates Cdk2 in the G1 to S phase transition; cyclin A, which utilizes Cdks 1 and 2 during progression through S phase and into G2; and cyclin B, which activates Cdk1 in M-phase promotion.

Description: The octapeptide circulatory hormone Angiotensin II is a critical regulator of cardiovascular homeostasis formed in blood, with dual function in tissues of the brain, kidney, heart, and vasculature as an autocrine/paracrine growth hormone. The actions of angiotensin II are mediated by type one (AT1) and type two (AT2) angiotensin II receptors, members of the seven-transmembrane Gprotein coupled receptor (GPCR) family. AT1 receptors couple predominantly with Gq/11 alpha subunits, and signal through phospholipases C, D, and A2, inositol phosphates, and calcium channels, as well as a variety of serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases. AT1 expression is greatest in vascular smooth muscle, liver, kidney, adrenal cortex, brain, and lung, and is primarily responsible for the physiological effects of angiotensin II, including regulation of arterial blood pressure, electrolyte and water balance, thirst, hormone secretion, and renal function. The AT2 receptor displays approximately 30% identity to the AT1 receptor, and is highly expressed during embryonic development. AT2 expression in adult tissue is limited to the adrenal medulla, brain, and reproductive tissues, but is upregulated in injured tissue following myocardial infarction, vascular injury, and wound healing. AT2 receptor signaling is not dependent on G-protein coupling or receptor phosphorylation, although coupling to Gia2 and Gia3 alpha subunits occurs in some tissues. AT2 activation can stimulate tyrosine and serine/threonine phosphatases through activation of nitric oxide and cGMP, and appears to counteract the stimulatory effects of AT1 receptor and growth factor receptor signaling.

Description: The subtype 1 neurotensin receptor (NTS1) is a seven-transmembrane domain containing G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) that mediates most of the known effects of neurotensin. NTS1 activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system in the central and peripheral nervous systems, mediating such functions as hypotension, hyperglycemia, hypothermia, antinociception, and the regulation of intestinal motility and secretion. NTS1 signaling is primarily mediated via coupling to Gq/G11 family G proteins, although coupling of NTS1 through Gs and Gi/o family proteins has been shown to modulate both adenylate and guanylate cyclase activity.

Description: Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and the closely related peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP) are a family of 36-amino acid, tyrosine-rich peptides with amidated C-terminal ends that are known to regulate gastrointestinal and central nervous system functions including food intake and the inhibition of anxiety. Four functional NPY receptors (Y1/Y2/Y4/Y5) have been identified to date, with a fifth (y6) being a non-functional receptor in primates that is absent from the rat genome. Y1, Y2, and Y5 receptors preferentially bind NPY and PYY, while the Y4 receptor preferentially binds PP. All four receptors signal via coupling to Gi/o alpha subunits, inhibiting adenylyl cyclase activity, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels. Y1 receptor deficient mice display a variety of physical and behavioral phenotypes including obesity, hyperinsulinemia, and increased territorial behavior.
