Abstract
Numerous studies highlight the therapeutic potential of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) heterodimers, emphasizing their significance in various pathological contexts. Despite extensive basic research and promising outcomes in animal models, the translation of GPCR heterodimer-targeting drugs into clinical use remains limited. The complexities of in vivo conditions, particularly within thecomplex central nervous system, pose challenges in fully replicating physiological environments, hindering clinical success. This review discusses examples of the most studied heterodimers, their involvement in nervous system pathology, and the available data on their potential ligands. In addition, this review highlights the intricate interplay between lipids and GPCRs as a potential key factor in understanding the complexity of cell signaling. The multifaceted role of lipids in modulating the dynamics of GPCR dimerization is explored, shedding light on the elaborate molecular mechanisms governing these interactions.
