Overview of Gene Research
Gpr160, an orphan G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), has been associated with multiple biological functions. It has been implicated in regulating the self-renewal and pluripotency of mouse embryonic stem cells via the JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway [1]. Additionally, it may play roles in pain-related processes and potentially in cancer-related mechanisms [2,3].

In rodent models, Gpr160 gene knockout (KO) mice fail to develop behavioral hypersensitivities in a neuropathic pain model caused by sciatic nerve constriction. Also, the development of behavioral hypersensitivities after intrathecal or intraplantar injections of cocaine-and amphetamine-regulated transcript peptide (CARTp) is dependent on Gpr160, suggesting its pronociceptive role [4]. In glioma, knockdown of Gpr160 inhibits proliferation, colony formation, and cell viability, and promotes apoptosis, indicating its potential as a therapeutic target in glioma [3]. In bone cancer pain models, targeted interventions of Gpr160 mitigate mechanical allodynia, cold, and heat hyperalgesia [2].

In conclusion, Gpr160 is involved in the regulation of stem cell self-renewal and pluripotency, and plays important roles in pain-related behaviors and potentially in cancer-related processes. The use of Gpr160 KO mouse models has been crucial in revealing its functions in neuropathic pain and glioma-related processes, providing insights for potential therapeutic interventions in these disease areas.
