Olfr460, a pivotal member of the olfactory receptor family, orchestrates the initiation of neuronal responses to odorant molecules, leading to the perception of smell. As a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), Olfr460 shares structural features with neurotransmitter and hormone receptors, playing a crucial role in the intricate process of odorant signal transduction. The olfactory receptor gene family, particularly exemplified by Olfr460, constitutes the largest in the genome, underscoring its significance in olfactory perception.
Inhibition of Olfr460 involves a diverse set of chemical interventions targeting various GPCR-associated pathways. Rapamycin suppresses mTOR-dependent events, impacting downstream GPCR signaling pathways and indirectly inhibiting Olfr460. Wortmannin disrupts PI3-kinase-dependent processes involved in GPCR-mediated signal transduction. Thapsigargin influences calcium signaling by inhibiting the SERCA pump, potentially impacting Olfr460 through calcium-dependent processes. Additionally, NF-κB inhibitor modulates NF-κB signaling, affecting GPCR-related pathways, while BAPTA-AM, a calcium chelator, alters calcium-dependent processes. SB203580, a p38 MAP kinase inhibitor, impacts MAPK signaling, and LY294002 inhibits PI3-kinase, both potentially influencing Olfr460 function through their respective pathways. These inhibitors offer valuable insights into potential interventions for Olfr460, providing a nuanced understanding of the intricate mechanisms involved in olfactory signal transduction at the molecular level.
