| Tissue Specificity | Expressed predominantly in the central nervous system, and at low levels in the lung, kidney, testis, ovary and eye. Highly expressed in regions of the brain implicated in the Alzheimer disease. |
| Function | Constitutively active G-protein coupled receptor that maintains high 3'-5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels that a plays a role in serveral processes including meiotic arrest in oocytes or neuronal development via activation of numerous intracellular signaling pathways. Acts as an essential activator of thermogenic adipocytes and drives thermogenesis via its intrinsic G(s)-coupling activity without the requirement of a ligand. Has a potential role in modulating a number of brain functions, including behavioral responses to stress, amyloid-beta peptide generation in neurons. Stimulates neurite outgrowth in cerebellar granular neurons modulated via PKA, ERK, and most strongly PI3K-mediated signaling pathways. |
