摘要
The capacity of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to activate multiple G protein isoforms and additional effectors such as β-arrestins has become a well-established paradigm and provides the basis for developing drugs that preferentially activate beneficial signalling pathways. There are many published examples of ligand-directed signalling, and recent studies have provided direct evidence that different agonists stabilise distinct GPCR conformations. This field is rapidly evolving, but a key question is whether signalling bias observed in heterologous cell expression systems can be translated to physiological systems of therapeutic relevance. The paper by Ngala et al. in this issue of the journal addresses the capacity of agonists acting at the β2-adrenoceptor to engender signalling bias in relation to glucose uptake in isolated skeletal muscle, an area of considerable potential interest in targeting insulin-independent pathways for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The authors show that clenbuterol and BRL37344 have opposite effects on glucose uptake, despite both having agonist actions at β2-adrenoceptors. This study underlines some of the obstacles associated with studies in a complex physiological system but nonetheless highlights the need to consider signalling bias in the relevant target tissue when developing novel drugs.
