21 September 2015 | By ,

The large family of pharmaceutical targets represented by G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are usually involved in a number of intracellular effector pathways, leading to many cellular outcomes. In recent years it has been uncovered that different ligands of a given GPCR may engage the pathways selectively, in that ligands that…

Although this target class is already heavily investigated, there are still a significant number of opportunities for discovery of novel drugs targeting additional GPCRs. In this review, scientists from AstraZeneca R&D discuss the general build-up of GPCR screening cascades for discovery of chemical leads that can be further developed into…
