Protease-activated receptor-2 in endosomes signals persistent pain of irritable bowel syndrome
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Activated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) internalize and can continue to signal from endosomes. The contribution of endosomal signaling to human disease is unknown. Proteases that are generated in the colon of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can cleave protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR 2 ) on nociceptors to cause pain. We evaluated whether PAR 2 generates signals in endosomes of nociceptors that mediate persistent hyperexcitability and pain. Biopsies of colonic mucosa from IBS patients released proteases that induced PAR 2 endocytosis, endosomal signaling, and persistent hyperexcitability of nociceptors. When conjugated to the transmembrane lipid cholestanol, PAR 2 antagonists accumulated in endosomes and suppressed persistent hyperexcitability. The results reveal the therapeutic potential of endosomally targeted PAR 2 antagonists for IBS pain, and expand the contribution of endosomal GPCR signaling to encompass processes that are relevant to disease.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
