GHSR (Growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
G protein-coupled receptor specific to ghrelin, an appetite-regulating peptide hormone commonly found in stomach. Upon activation, stimulates appetite and promotes growth hormone secretion. Ghrelin binding causes a conformation change that triggers signalling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors, such as phospholipase C. GHSR is coupled to G(q) G proteins and mediates production of diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). Also binds other growth hormone releasing peptides (GHRP) (e.g. Met-enkephalin and GHRP-6) as well as non-peptide, low molecular weight secretagogues (e.g. Location: Cell membrane (UniProt). Locus 3q26.31 (HGNC).
