Recent advances in fluorescent ligand technology have enabled the study of G protein-coupled receptors in their native environment without the need for genetic modification such as addition of N-terminal fluorescent or bioluminescent tags. Here, we h... Read More about A non-imaging high throughput approach to chemical library screening at the unmodified adenosine-A3 receptor in living cells.

Endogenous adenosine A2B receptors (A2BAR) mediate cAMP accumulation in HEK 293 cells. Here we have used a biosensor to investigate the mechanism of action of the A2BAR antagonist PSB 603 in HEK 293 cells. The A2A agonist CGS 21680 elicited a small r...

?-Blockers reduce mortality and improve symptoms in people with heart disease. However, current clinically available ?-blockers have poor selectivity for the cardiac ?1-adrenoceptor (AR) over the lung ?2-AR. Unwanted ?2-blockade risks causing life-th...
