| Abstract | Proximal regions of the third intracellular loop (ICL-3) are responsible for the interaction with heterotrimeric G proteins in most of the serpentine type receptors. The peptides corresponding to these regions are able to activate G proteins in the absence of hormone and to alter the transduction of hormonal signal via the respective homologous receptor. However, the molecular mechanisms of action of the peptides, their specificity to receptors and target tissues are currently not well understood. The goal of this work was to study the receptor and tissue specificity of peptides-derivatives of C-terminal regions of the ICL-3 of luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR), type 1 relaxin receptor (RXFP1), somatostatin receptors of types 1 and 2 (Som$_{1}$R and Som$_{2}$R), and 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors of subtype 1B and type 6 (5-HT$_{1B}$R and 5-HT$_{6}$R) on the functional activity of adenylyl cyclase (AC) and GppNHp-binding of G proteins in the brain, myocardium, and testis of rats. It was shown that the influence of peptides on AC and G proteins is well detected in tissues enriched in homologous receptors. The effects stimulating AC and GppNHp-binding were most pronounced in the testes for LHR peptide, in the brain for peptide 5-HT$_{6}$R, and in all of the tested tissues (but mainly in the myocardium) for the RXFP1 peptide. The AC-inhibiting effects of peptides Som$_{1}$R, Som$_{2}$R and 5-HT$_{1B}$R, as well as the stimulation of GppNHp binding induced by these peptides, were most pronounced in the brain. In the presence of the peptides, the AC effects of hormones acting via homologous receptors were significantly attenuated, while the AC effects of other hormones changed insignificantly. The findings suggest that biological activity of the peptides depends on their interaction with complementary regions of homologous receptors, which should be taken into account when developing highly selective regulators of hormonal signaling systems on the basis of these peptides. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
