Characterization of non-olfactory GPCRs in human sperm with a focus on GPR18

The results indicate that G PR18 might be involved in physiological processes of human spermatozoa, suggesting GPR18 to be a potential player in sperm physiology.

Gene Expression Profiling Reveals Functional Specialization along the Intestinal Tract of a Carnivorous Teleostean Fish (Dicentrarchus labrax)

Functional analysis revealed that molecular and cellular functions related to feed digestion and nutrient absorption and transport were over-represented in AI-MI segments, and the initiation and establishment of immune defense mechanisms became especially relevant in PI, although the microarray expression profiling validated by qPCR indicated that these functional changes are gradual from anterior to posterior intestinal segments.

A Review of Bacterial Co-Infections in Farmed Catfish: Components, Diagnostics, and Treatment Directions

An overview of co-infective pathogens in catfish culture is provided and diagnostic case data from Mississippi and Alabama is presented to define prevalence for these multiple-species infections better.

Activation of GPR18 by cannabinoid compounds: a tale of biased agonism

The rationale of the study presented herein was to consider the effects of N‐arachidonoyl glycine (NAGly) and cannabinoids via differential G‐protein coupled pathways, in addition to β‐arrestin signalling, and Cellular localization of GPR18 receptors was examined.

Identification of resolvin D2 receptor mediating resolution of infections and organ protection

GPR18 is identified as a novel receptor for resolvin D2 and activation of this receptor in human and mouse phagocytes stimulates phagocytic clearance during bacterial infections and promotes organ protection.

Computational Investigations on the Binding Mode of Ligands for the Cannabinoid-Activated G Protein-Coupled Receptor GPR18

Insight is provided into the binding mode of GPR18 agonists and antagonists which will facilitate future drug design for this promising potential drug target.
