The Discovery of a Selective, Small Molecule Agonist for the Mas-Related Gene X1 Receptor
摘要:
The novel 7-transmembrane receptor MrgX1 is located predominantly in the dorsal root ganglion and has consequently been implicated in the perception of pain. Here we describe the discovery and optimization of a small molecule agonist and initial docking studies of this ligand into the receptor in order to provide a suitable lead and tool compound for the elucidation of the physiological function of the receptor.

The present application provides methods and compositions that can be used to treat persistent pain and to identify compounds that can be used for treating persistent pain. More specifically, agonists of members of the Mrgpr receptor family, particularly agonists of MrgprXl, can identified and screened for use in treating persistent pain, such as pain caused by inflammation or nerve injury.
