Gene Information

human ... MCHR1(2847)

General description

The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family 1, is an integral plasma membrane protein which binds melanin-concentrating hormone. The encoded protein can inhibit cAMP accumulation and stimulate intracellular calcium flux, and is probably involved in the neuronal regulation of food consumption. Although structurally similar to somatostatin receptors, this protein does not seem to bind somatostatin. (provided by RefSeq)

Biochem/physiol Actions

MCHR1 (melanin-concentrating hormone receptor 1) is involved in various biological processes such as in regulation of energy balance, food intake, physical activity and body weight. It is majorly associated with the neurotransmitter and neuropeptide systems, which are a part of regulation of food intake and energy balance. It forms complex with G proteins to inhibit adenylyl cyclase and with G proteins that activate phosphoinositide hydrolysis. The gene is associated with the schizophrenia disease since it has influence on schizophrenia susceptibility. It mediates Gα(i)-dependent signaling pathway. It has also been reported that MCHR1 regulates the orexigenic activity of melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH).

The melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) receptor type 1 (MCHR1) is a seven-transmembrane domain protein that modulates orexigenic activity of MCH, the corresponding endogenous peptide agonist. MCH antagonists are being explored as a potential treatment for obesity. In the current study, we

The underlying causes of obesity are poorly understood but probably involve complex interactions between many neurotransmitter and neuropeptide systems involved in the regulation of food intake and energy balance. Three pieces of evidence indicate that the neuropeptide melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH)
