Function

edit

GPR75 is a member of theG protein-coupled receptorfamily. GPRs are cell surface receptors that activateguanine-nucleotide binding proteinsupon the binding of a ligand.[6]

GPR75 is currently classified as an orphan GPCR and several studies are underway to identify its ligand. In one study, the chemokineCCL5(RANTES) has been shown to stimulate calcium mobilization andinositol triphosphateformation in GPR75-transfected cells.[7]

A 2021 study reported that people with protein-truncating variants of GPR75 were associated with 5.3kg lower body weight and 54% lower odds for obesity. GPR75 knock-out mice showed resistance to weight gain under high-fat diet.[8]
