Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * GPR18 is a transmembrane protein that is expressed as a single-pass transmembrane protein. * It is a member of the GPCR superfamily, which is a large family of cell surface receptors that are expressed in a variety of tissues. * GPR18 is a ligand-gated channel that is expressed in the plasma membrane of endothelial cells. * It is a negative regulator of leukocyte chemotaxis, tumor necrosis factor production, and plasma membrane signaling. **Pathways and functions:** * GPR18 is involved in the regulation of inflammation and immune responses. * It is expressed in retinal ganglion cells, which are responsible for the detection of visual stimuli. * GPR18 is also expressed in other cell types that are involved in inflammation, such as ON-bipolar cells, retina horizontal cells, and OFF-bipolar cells. * It is thought to play a role in the regulation of the inflammatory response to visual stimuli. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in GPR18 have been linked to a number of eye diseases, including retinal dystrophy, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration. * Inhibitors of GPR18 have been shown to be effective in reducing inflammation and damage in animal models of eye diseases. * Therefore, GPR18 is a potential target for the treatment of eye diseases.
