G protein-coupled receptor 35 also known as GPR35 is a G protein-coupled receptor which in humans is encoded by the GPR35 gene[1] Heightened expression of GPR35 is found in immune and gastrointestinal tissues, including the crypts of Lieberkühn.

[edit] Ligands

One study has shown that kynurenic acid acts as an endogenous ligand for this receptor.[2] Zaprinast, a PDE5A inhibitor, was found to be an agonist for GPR35.[3]

[edit] Clinical significance

Deletion of GPR35 gene may be responsible for brachydactyly mental retardation syndrome and is mutated in 2q37 monosomy and 2q37 deletion syndrome.[4] In one study GPR35 has been recognised as a potential oncogene in the stomach cancer.[5]
