Importance of amino acids of the central portion of the second intracellular loop of the gastrin-releasing Peptide receptor for phospholipase C activation, internalization, and chronic down-regulation.

Little is known about the function of the central portion of the second intracellular loop (i2 loop) of peptide receptors in activation of downstream pathways and receptor modulatory processes such as receptor internalization or chronic down-regulation (DR). Recent data suggest a role for i2 loop hydrophobic amino acids in these processes. We used site-directed mutagenesis to address these issu...

Preparation and evaluation of 67Ga-DOTA-Bombesin (7-14) as a tumor scintigraphic agent

  Introduction: Bombesin is a 14-aminoacid peptide isolated from frog skin. The mammalian counterparts of the frog peptide are neuromedin B (NMB) and gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP). Bombesin (BBN) is a peptide showing high affinity for the gastrin releasing peptide receptor (GRPr). Prostate, small cell lung cancer, breast, gastric, and colon cancers are known to over...

Effect of gastrin-releasing peptide receptor number on receptor affinity, coupling, degradation, and modulation.

The relationship between receptor number and agonist-induced intracellular responses has been well studied in receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase; however, for receptors coupled to phospholipase C (PLC), very little is known about the effect of receptor number on receptor-mediated processes. To explore this issue, we investigated the effect of the number of receptors for gastrin-releasing pe...

Role of receptor and protein kinase C activation in the internalization of the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor.

The mechanisms regulating receptor internalization are not well understood and vary among different G protein-coupled receptors. The bombesin (Bn)/gastrin-releasing peptide receptor GRP-R, which is coupled to phospholipase C via the Gq family of transducing proteins, is internalized rapidly after Bn binding. Agonist stimulation leads to rapid receptor phosphorylation, as does activation of prot...

Glycosylation of the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor and its effect on expression, G protein coupling, and receptor modulatory processes.

Many gastrointestinal G protein-coupled receptors are glycosylated; however, which potential glycosylation sites are actually glycosylated and their role in receptor transduction or receptor modulation (internalization, down-regulation, desensitization) is largely unknown. We used site-directed mutagenesis to address these issues with the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRP-R). Each of the ...
