Abstract
    G protein coupled receptor (GPCR), expressed in almost every single cell, undertake a variety of physiological and pathological role. In recent years, a growing number of studies have shown that these receptors are involved in regulating the physiological activities in the form of dimer, play an important role in signal recognition and transduction leading to physiological changes and diseases treatment which provide a new target for drugs. Now with the development of biotechnology and molecular biology, the dimerization of GPCR research has made great progress. This article aims to summarize the progress of studies on the physiological and pathological effects of GPCR dimerization.
