Identification of a serotonin/glutamate receptor complex implicated in psychosis

…, LF Callado, G Milligan, JA Gingrich, M Filizola… - Nature, 2008 - nature.com
The psychosis associated with schizophrenia is characterized by alterations in sensory
processing and perception 1 , 2 . Some antipsychotic drugs were identified by their high affinity …

G protein–coupled receptor oligomerization revisited: functional and pharmacological perspectives

S Ferré, V Casadó, LA Devi, M Filizola, R Jockers… - Pharmacological …, 2014 - ASPET
Most evidence indicates that, as for family CG protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), family A
GPCRs form homo- and heteromers. Homodimers seem to be a predominant species, with …

Promoting transparency and reproducibility in enhanced molecular simulations

…, V Drobot, B Ensing, AL Ferguson, M Filizola… - Nature …, 2019 - hal.science
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have become an important tool for characterizing
mechanisms underlying complex processes, interpreting experimental measurements, and …

Dopamine D2 receptors form higher order oligomers at physiological expression levels

…, M Kralikova, JC Mobarec, L Shi, M Filizola… - The EMBO …, 2008 - embopress.org
G‐protein‐coupled receptors are generally thought to be organized as dimers; whether they
form higher order oligomers is a topic of much controversy. We combined bioluminescence/…

[HTML][HTML] Decoding the signaling of a GPCR heteromeric complex reveals a unifying mechanism of action of antipsychotic drugs

…, AD MacKerell, V Brezina, SC Sealfon, M Filizola… - Cell, 2011 - cell.com
Atypical antipsychotic drugs, such as clozapine and risperidone, have a high affinity for the
serotonin 5-HT 2A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), the 2AR, which signals via a G q …

International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology. LXVII. Recommendations for the recognition and nomenclature of G protein-coupled receptor heteromultimers

JP Pin, R Neubig, M Bouvier, L Devi, M Filizola… - Pharmacological …, 2007 - ASPET
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have long been considered to be monomeric
membrane proteins. Although numerous recent studies have indicated that GPCRs can form …

Crosstalk in G protein-coupled receptors: changes at the transmembrane homodimer interface determine activation

W Guo, L Shi, M Filizola… - Proceedings of the …, 2005 - National Acad Sciences
Functional crosstalk between G protein-coupled receptors in a homo- or heterodimeric
assembly likely involves conformational changes at the dimer interface, but the nature of this …

…, A Váradi, S Majumdar, M Filizola… - Journal of the …, 2016 - ACS Publications
Mu-opioid receptor agonists represent mainstays of pain management. However, the therapeutic
use of these agents is associated with serious side effects, including potentially lethal …

Modern homology modeling of G-protein coupled receptors: which structural template to use?

JC Mobarec, R Sanchez, M Filizola - Journal of medicinal …, 2009 - ACS Publications
The recent availability in the literature of new crystal structures of inactive G-protein coupled
receptors (GPCRs) prompted us to study the extent to which these crystal structures …

Identification of a μ-δ opioid receptor heteromer-biased agonist with antinociceptive activity

…, C Eberhart, E Roberts, M Filizola… - Proceedings of the …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
