They regulate physiological and pathological processes such as metabolic homeostasis, cell proliferation and differentiation, and the immune response, and are one of the most important classes of drug targets, being targeted by 30–40 % of marketed drugs. A growing number of studies continue to reveal the complexity of GPCRs, especially their ability to interact with each other to form higher-order structures such as homodimers and heterodimers, which have different functions than monomers, and are involved in disease development and progression. The existence of GPCR homodimers and heterodimers is opening up new directions in drug discovery and development to harness their therapeutic potential. Particularly striking is the ability of GPCR dimers to trigger unique biased signalling pathways, which exquisitely balance the relationship between therapeutic effects and side effects. By suppressing adverse reactions and enhancing beneficial drug effects, GPCR dimers provide an unprecedented opportunity to minimise side effects, maximise therapeutic efficacy and enhance safety. This review aims to highlight the latest research advances in GPCR dimerization and GPCR-biased signalling, focusing on the development of dimer-targeting and biased ligands as innovative drugs that will likely provide new strategies for treating GPCR-related diseases as well as a better understanding of drug design for compounds that target GPCRs.

Chronic metabolic inflammation often related to alterations in gut homeostasis, and pathological processes involve the activation of endotoxin receptors, metabolic reprogramming, mitochondrial dysfunction, and disruption of intestinal nuclear receptor activity. Recent investigations into homeostasis and chronic metabolic inflammation have revealed a novel mechanism which is characterized by a timing interaction involving multiple components and targets. This article explores the positive impact of tea consumption on metabolic health of populations, with a special focus on the improvement of inflammatory indicators and the regulation of gut microbiota. Studies showed that tea consumption is related to the enrichment of gut microbiota. The relative proportion of Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes (F/B) is altered, while the abundance of &lt;em&gt;Lactobacillus&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Bifidobacterium&lt;/em&gt;, and &lt;em&gt;A. muciniphila&lt;/em&gt; increased significantly in most of the studies. Thus, tea consumption could provide potential protection from the development of chronic diseases by improving gut homeostasis and reducing chronic metabolic inflammation. The direct impact of tea on intestinal homeostasis primarily targets lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-related pathways. This includes reducing the synthesis of intestinal LPS, inhibiting LPS translocation, and preventing the binding of LPS to TLR4 receptors to block downstream inflammatory pathways. The TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB p65 pathway is crucial for anti-metaflammatory responses. The antioxidant properties of tea are linked to enhancing mitochondrial function and mitigating mitochondria-related inflammation by eliminating free radicals, inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasomes, and modulating Nrf2/ARE activity. Tea also contributes to safeguarding the intestinal barrier through various mechanisms, such as promoting the synthesis of short-chain fatty acids in the intestine, activating intestinal aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and farnesoid X receptor (FXR), and improving enteritis. Functional components that improve chronic metabolic inflammation include tea polyphenols, tea pigments, TPS, etc. Tea metabolites such as 4-Hydroxyphenylacetic acid and 3,4-Dihydroxyflavan derivatives, etc., also contribute to anti-chronic metabolic inflammation effects of tea consumption. The raw materials and processing technologies affect the functional component compositions of tea; therefore, consuming different types of tea may result in varying action characteristics and mechanisms. However, there is currently limited elaboration on this aspect. Future research should conduct in-depth studies on the mechanism of tea and its functional components in improving chronic metabolic inflammation. Researchers should pay attention to whether there are interactions between tea and other foods or drugs, explor","PeriodicalId":402,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacology & Therapeutics","volume":"269 ","pages":"Article 108828"},"PeriodicalIF":12.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143530825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
