Biased signaling of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor can be mediated through distinct mechanisms.
Seven transmembrane receptors (7TMRs) can adopt different active conformations facilitating a selective activation of either G protein or β-arrestin-dependent signaling pathways. This represents an opportunity for development of novel therapeutics targeting selective biological effects of a given re...
