Target data

Function

G-protein coupled receptor for CRH (corticotropin-releasing factor), UCN (urocortin), UCN2 and UCN3. Has high affinity for UCN. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and down-stream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase. Promotes the activation of adenylate cyclase, leading to increased intracellular cAMP levels.

Supplementary info

Activity summary

Corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 2 (CRHR2) also known as CRF2 receptor is a protein encoded by the CRHR2 gene. Mechanically CRHR2 functions by binding to corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and related peptides leading to activation of intracellular signaling pathways. This receptor is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family and is approximately 47 kDa in mass. CRHR2 is expressed in diverse tissues prominently in the brain heart gastrointestinal tract and skeletal muscle.

Biological function summary

The receptor regulates stress-related and homeostatic functions. It plays a significant role in mediating the effects of CRH and urocortins on the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. The receptor contributes to managing anxiety cardiovascular function gastric motility and energy homeostasis. Although CRHR2 does not form a part of a larger complex it closely interacts with other neuropeptides and their receptors to maintain physiological balance.

Pathways

CRHR2 is integrated into important signaling networks like the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the stress response pathway. In these pathways CRHR2 influences cortisol release and modulates stress responses. Related proteins include CRHR1 which also binds CRH facilitating modulation of adaptive responses to stress. Additionally CRHR2 interacts with intracellular proteins that regulate signal transduction cascades linked to mood regulation and anxiety management.

Associated diseases and disorders

CRHR2 has associations with conditions like depression and cardiovascular diseases. Elevated or altered activity of CRHR2 can affect mood regulation pathways leading to an increased risk of depression. The receptor's role in cardiovascular regulation links it to heart diseases where altered signaling can impact heart rate and blood pressure. CRHR2 is associated with proteins such as CRH which can jointly influence the susceptibility to these disorders by modulating stress and cardiovascular responses.
