To gain a deeper insight into the functional properties of the V2R active mutants and how they might translate into the pathological outcome of NSIAD, in this study, we have expressed the wild-type V2R and three constitutively active V2R mutants associated with NSIAD (R137L, R137C, and the F229V) in MCD4 cells, a cell line derived from renal mouse collecting duct, stably expressing the vasopressin-sensitive water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2).
Furthermore, the SNPs within ADRA1A [rs10</span>48101 (T>C)], NPY [rs16476 (A>C), rs16148 (T>C)], as well as ADRB1 [rs28365031 (A>G)] all appeared to predict the prognosis of cervical vertigo in a relatively accurate way (all P < .05).
Finally, the severity of cervical vertigo was classified according to the JOA scoring, and the recovery rate (RR) of cervical vertigo was calculated in light of the formula as: [Formula: see text] RESULTS: The SNPs within ADRA1A [rs1048101 (T>C) and rs3802241 (C>T)], NPY [rs16476 (A>C), rs16148 (T>C), and rs5574 (C>T)], ADRB1 [rs28365031 (A>G)] and ADRB2 [rs2053044 (A>G)] were all significantly associated with regulated risk of cervical vertigo (all P < .05).
Using whole exome sequencing, we identified a rare heterozygous variant (c.545G>T; p.Cys182Phe) in Trace amine associated receptor 1 gene (TAAR1 6q23.2) in three affected members in a small SZ family.
A novel V2R mutation, T273M, identified in a boy with partial nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), shows intracellular localization and partial defects similar to the two mutants we described previously (10).

Further studies also elucidated the oncogene nature of the G protein-coupled receptor LPAR4 and its c.872T>G (p.Ile291Ser) mutation in PTC malignant transformation.
Some studies have found a positive correlation between the Arg347Cys polymorphism of the α1a-adrenergic receptor to hypertension and heart autonomic control.
A naturally occurring variant of GIPR (E354Q) associated with an increased incidence of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease in humans responds to GIP stimulation with an exaggerated downregulation from the plasma membrane and a delayed recovery of GIP sensitivity following cessation of GIP stimulation.
This perturbation in the desensitization-resensitization cycle of the GIPR variant, revealed in studies of cultured adipocytes, may contribute to the link of the E354Q variant to metabolic disease.
Subsequent exome sequencing of two affected first cousins revealed heterozygous mutation c.158G>A (p.Gly53Asp) in GNB4, encoding guanine-nucleotide-binding protein subunit beta-4 (Gβ4), to cosegregate with the CMT phenotype in the family.
We examined whether a functional variant of the ADRA1A gene (Cys to Arg at codon 347 in exon 2, Cys347Arg) may enhance treatment response through decreased stimulation of this α1A-adrenoceptor, since antagonists of this receptor show promise in reducing cocaine use.
Our findings indicate that the mutation of EDNRA at S420T site should be regard as a potential AIMAH causative variation in familial and sporadic affected patients.
Using whole exome sequencing and several variant prioritization strategies based on disease network analysis, we identified Endothelin receptor type A (EDNRA) Ser420Thr mutation as a causative mutation of AIMAH.
We hypothesized that 3 nonsynonymous GRK4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, R65L (rs2960306), A142V (rs1024323), and A486V (rs1801058), would be associated with blood pressure response to atenolol, but not hydrochlorothiazide, and would be associated with long-term cardiovascular outcomes (all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke) in participants treated with an atenolol-based versus verapamil-SR-based antihypertensive strategy.
The SNP rs17055869 near the alpha-1A-adrenoreceptor gene (ADRA1A) showed the strongest association with metabolic syndrome (odds ratio 1.7, CI 1.3-2.2; P = 0.00007, P = 0.000098 after permutation).
We identified three tumor specific missense mutations in RGSL1 (ex6 c.664 G>A (Val222Ile), ex13 c.2262 C>G (Asp754Glu), and ex13 c.2316 C>T (Ser772Leu) in three different breast cancer patients.

In Spanish patients, the alpha(1A)-AR SNP rs1383914 was associated with the presence of FM (P = 0.01), and the alpha(1A)-AR SNP rs1048101 was linked with FIQ disability (P = 0.02).
