| Function | G-protein coupled receptor that binds to several ligands including 2-arachidonoyl lysophosphatidylinositol or lysophosphatidylglucoside with high affinity, leading to rapid and transient activation of numerous intracellular signaling pathways. Induces the Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores via ERK, the heterotrimeric G protein GNA13 and RHOA leading to morphological changes including cell rounding and stress fiber formation. In macrophages, acts downstream of lysophosphatidylglucoside to inhibit the translocation of the phospholipid-transporting ABCA1 to plasma membrane and subsequent cholesterol efflux leading to lipid accumulation and foam cell formation. |
