Background: Lgr4/GPR48

Lgr4 (leucine‑rich repeat GPR 4), also called GPR48 (G‑protein‑coupled receptor 48), is a seven‑transmembrane glycoprotein receptor in the Lgr family of cell surface receptors (1, 2). While this family includes receptors for hormones such as LH, FSH, TSH, and HCG, the subfamily comprising Lgr4, Lgr5, and Lgr6 are G‑protein‑independent mediators of the potentiating effect of R‑Spondins on Wnt signaling (1‑6). Lgr4 binds and forms complexes with R‑Spondins, Frizzled Wnt receptors and LRP Wnt co‑receptors (5). It acts at least in part by enhancing Wnt‑dependent LRP phosphorylation, internalization of LRPs, and accumulation of beta ‑catenin (3, 4). Cynomolgus Monkey Lgr4 cDNA encodes 951 amino acids (aa), including a long N‑terminal extracellular domain with multiple LRR domains that may mediate ligand interaction. The LRR‑containing ECD of Cynomolgus Monkey Lgr4 shares 99% aa sequence identity with human Lgr4. Lgr4 is widely expressed in both embryo and adult. Expression of Lgr4 mRNA in adult humans is highest in pancreas, followed by liver, heart, muscle, brain, and placenta (1). In rodents, embryonic and adult expression includes liver, kidney, adrenals, bone/cartilage, and heart (2, 7‑9). Lgr4 deletion in the mouse affects development in areas of expression, for example, inhibiting fetal liver definitive erythropoiesis (9). Deletion of Lgr4 specifically from stem and progenitor cells in intestinal crypts induces loss of crypts due to insufficient Wnt signaling (5, 6). Lgr4 may be over‑expressed in carcinomas and may promote invasiveness and metastasis by down‑regulating p27Kip1 expression (10).
