摘要:
Disclosed herein are non-endogenous, constitutively activated forms of the human 5-HT.sub.2A and human 5-HT.sub.2C receptors and uses of such receptors to screen candidate compounds. Further disclosed herein are candidate compounds identified by the screening method which act at the 5HT.sub.2A receptors. Yet further disclosed is a new class of compounds which act at the 5HT.sub.2A receptors.

摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of identifying whether a candidate compound is a modulator of a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). In preferred embodiments, the GPCR is human. In other preferred embodiments, the GPCR is coupled to Gi and lowers the level of intracellular cAMP. In other preferred embodiments, the GPCR is expressed endogenously by adipocytes. In further preferred embodiments, the GPCR inhibits intracellular lipolysis. In other further preferred embodiments, the GPCR is a nicotinic acid receptor. The present invention also relates to methods of using a modulator of said GPCR. Preferred modulator is agonist. Agonists of the invention are useful as therapeutic agents for the prevention or treatment of metabolic-related disorders, including dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, stroke, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes.
摘要:
The invention disclosed in this patent document relates to transmembrane receptors, more particularly to a human G protein-coupled receptor and to mutated (non-endogenous) versions of the human GPCRs for evidence of constitutive activity.
