    Regulation of pulmonary surfactant by the adhesion GPCR GPR116/ADGRF5 requires a tethered agonist-mediated activation mechanism

    James P Bridges, Caterina Safina ... Marie-Gabrielle Ludwig
    Mutagenesis and activity assays in vitro and in vivo identify residues in the tethered agonist of GPR116, as well as those within the extracellular loops, that are critical for mediating the response to the tethered agonist.

    Mechano-dependent signaling by Latrophilin/CIRL quenches cAMP in proprioceptive neurons

    Nicole Scholz, Chonglin Guan ... Robert J Kittel
    Metabotropic mechanosensing occurs through an adhesion-type G protein-coupled receptor.

    Antinociceptive modulation by the adhesion GPCR CIRL promotes mechanosensory signal discrimination

    Sven Dannhäuser, Thomas J Lux ... Robert J Kittel
    An interdisciplinary approach uncovers a new antinociceptive molecular mechanism and shows that the adhesion GPCR CIRL adjusts the sensation of gentle touch and noxious mechanical insult in opposite directions.

    Activation of polycystin-1 signaling by binding of stalk-derived peptide agonists

    Shristi Pawnikar, Brenda S Magenheimer ... Yinglong Miao
    Structural dynamic insights revealed the mechanisms of PC1 activation by stalk-derived peptide agonists which can form a foundation for development of PC1 as a therapeutic target for ADPKD treatment.

    The adhesion-GPCR BAI1 shapes dendritic arbors via Bcr-mediated RhoA activation causing late growth arrest

    Joseph G Duman, Shalaka Mulherkar ... Kimberley F Tolias
    The adhesion-GPCR BAI1 shapes dendritic arbors in the hippocampus by associating with Bcr late in development and stimulating its RhoA-GEF activity, resulting in dendritic growth arrest.

    An adhesion G protein-coupled receptor is required in cartilaginous and dense connective tissues to maintain spine alignment

    Zhaoyang Liu, Amro A Hussien ... Ryan S Gray
    The regulation of the biomechanical properties of tendons/ligaments is essential for the maintenance of spine alignment in the mouse.

    Gq activity- and β-arrestin-1 scaffolding-mediated ADGRG2/CFTR coupling are required for male fertility

    Dao-Lai Zhang, Yu-Jing Sun ... Jin-Peng Sun
    ADGRG2, an orphan GPCR, when coupled to CFTR via a regional Gq signaling on the apical membrane, acts to regulate efferent duct fluid reabsorption making it essential for male fertility.
