LPL Receptor (溶血磷脂受体)

LPL Receptor (Lysophospholipid Receptor) group are members of the G protein-coupled receptor family of integral membrane proteins that are important for lipid signaling. In humans, there are eight LPL receptors, each encoded by a separate gene. These LPL receptor genes are also sometimes referred to as "Edg". LPL receptor ligands bind to and activate their cognate receptors located in the cell membrane. Depending on which ligand, receptor, and cell type is involved, the activated receptor can have a range of effects on the cell. These include primary effects of inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum, as well as secondary effects of preventingapoptosis and increasing cell proliferation. Type: LPAR1, LPAR2, LPAR3, LPAR4, LPAR5, LPAR6, S1PR1, S1PR2, S1PR3, S1PR4, S1PR5.
