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] Hightened expression of GPR35 is found in immune and gastrointestinal tissues, including the crypts of Lieberkühn.

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]

Clinical significance

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