Other Information

**Key Characteristics** 1. **Olfactory Receptor**: OR1E2 is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that responds to chemical stimuli, specifically odorant molecules, and triggers a signaling cascade to convey this information to the brain. 2. **Expression in Gastrointestinal Tract**: OR1E2 is expressed in various cell types of the gastrointestinal tract, including goblet cells, intestinal epithelial cells, and intestinal enteroendocrine cells, suggesting a role in the regulation of gut function and homeostasis. 3. **Signaling Pathways**: OR1E2 activates G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathways, which involve the activation of G proteins, adenylate cyclase, and the production of cAMP, leading to various downstream effects, including changes in ion channel activity and gene expression. 4. **Tissue-Specific Expression**: The expression of OR1E2 is tissue-specific, with high levels found in the gastrointestinal tract and low levels in other tissues, suggesting a specialized role in gut function. **Pathways and Functions** 1. **Detection of Chemical Stimuli**: OR1E2 responds to odorant molecules, which bind to the receptor and trigger a signaling cascade that conveys this information to the brain, allowing for the perception of smell. 2. **G Protein-Coupled Receptor Signaling**: OR1E2 activates G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathways, which involve the activation of G proteins, adenylate cyclase, and the production of cAMP, leading to various downstream effects, including changes in ion channel activity and gene expression. 3. **Regulation of Gut Function**: OR1E2 may play a role in regulating gut function and homeostasis, particularly in the gastrointestinal tract, where it is expressed in various cell types. 4. **Immune Response**: OR1E2 may also play a role in the immune response, particularly in the context of the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), where it is expressed in immune cells. **Clinical Significance** 1. **Gastrointestinal Disorders**: Alterations in OR1E2 expression or function may contribute to gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). 2. **Cancer**: OR1E2 may play a role in the development and progression of certain cancers, particularly those that originate in the gastrointestinal tract, such as colon cancer and gastric cancer. 3. **Neurological Disorders**: OR1E2 may also play a role in neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease, where olfactory dysfunction is a common feature. 4. **Pharmacological Targeting**: OR1E2 may serve as a target for the development of novel therapeutic agents, particularly in the context of gastrointestinal disorders and cancer. In conclusion, OR1E2 is a critical receptor involved in the detection of chemical stimuli involved in sensory perception of smell, and its expression and function are tightly regulated in various cell types of the gastrointestinal tract. The receptor's role in regulating gut function and homeostasis, as well as its potential involvement in gastrointestinal disorders and cancer, highlights its clinical significance. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the functions and clinical implications of OR1E2.
