Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: C5L2, a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), has been identified as an ASP (C3adesArg) and C5a receptor. Controversy exists regarding both ligand binding and functionality. ASP activation of C5L2 is proposed to regulate fat storage. C5L2 is also proposed as a decoy receptor for C5a, an inflammatory mediator, based on absence of Ca(2+) or chemotaxis changes. AIMS: (i) to evaluate C5L2 receptor activation...
