Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** CCKAR is a member of the GPCR family, characterized by its unique structure and ligand-binding properties. It is activated by the binding of CCK, a peptide hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes. CCKAR is expressed in a wide range of cells, including progenitor cells, blood vessel endothelial cells, pericytes, goblet cells, and various types of neurons and immune cells. Its expression is also observed in the intestinal crypt stem cells of the colon and the cardiac endothelial cells. **Pathways and Functions:** CCKAR is involved in several signaling pathways, including: 1. **Gαq signaling events**: Upon activation by CCK, CCKAR triggers the activation of the Gαq protein, which in turn activates phospholipase C (PLC) and leads to the production of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). 2. **Cholecystokinin signaling pathway**: CCKAR is a key component of the cholecystokinin signaling pathway, which regulates various physiological processes, including digestion, satiety, and immune responses. 3. **Phospholipase C-activating GPCR signaling pathway**: CCKAR is also involved in the phospholipase C-activating GPCR signaling pathway, which is essential for regulating various cellular processes, including cell proliferation and differentiation. CCKAR's functional significance extends beyond its role in regulating physiological processes. It has been implicated in modulating immune responses, including: 1. **Inflammation**: CCKAR has been shown to regulate inflammatory responses by modulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. 2. **Immune cell function**: CCKAR has been implicated in the regulation of immune cell function, including the activation of T cells and the production of cytokines. **Clinical Significance:** CCKAR's dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Gastrointestinal disorders**: CCKAR's dysregulation has been linked to gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). 2. **Immune-mediated diseases**: CCKAR's dysregulation has been implicated in immune-mediated diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. 3. **Neurological disorders**: CCKAR's dysregulation has been linked to neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. In conclusion, CCKAR is a multifunctional GPCR with widespread implications in immunology and beyond. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the need for further research into the molecular mechanisms underlying CCKAR's functional significance.
