Webinar: Mu Opioid Receptor Splicing and Signaling: Another Dimension of GPCR Function (英語)
Prof. Gavril Pasternak
Laboratory Head, Molecular Pharmacology and Chemistry Program,
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center
Opioid receptors are among the most well-known GPCRs that regulate the transmission and perception of pain. Clinical management of severe pain depends heavily on opioids acting through μ-opioid receptors (MORs) encoded by the OPRM1 gene, which undergoes extensive alternative splicing, generating an array of splice variants.
In this webinar, Professor Pasternak will describe a set of mutant mouse models developed to investigate the importance of OPRM1 5’ and 3’ splicing and the role of their distal C-terminal tails in mediating complex morphine actions. These models revealed major behavioral and transduction differences, including biased signaling and β-arrestin recruitment, among the 3’ splice variants and the drugs tested.
