Orphan GPCR GPRC5C Facilitates Angiotensin II-Induced Smooth Muscle Contraction
10 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: GPCRs (G-protein-coupled receptors) play a central role in the regulation of smooth muscle cell (SMC) contractility, but the function of SMC-expressed orphan GPCR class C group 5 member C (GPRC5C) is unclear. The aim of this project is to define the role of GPRC5C in SMC in vitro and in vivo. METHODS: We studied the role of GPRC5C in the regulation of SMC contractility and differentiation in human and...
