  • Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) are a distinct group within the GPCR superfamily.
  • In 2015, the Adhesion GPCR Consortium published a comprehensive review and established unified nomenclature.
  • Significant progress has been made in understanding aGPCRs' biology, molecular architecture, signaling, and roles in health and disease.
  • This review summarizes current knowledge, methodological approaches, model systems, and therapeutic targeting opportunities.
  • aGPCRs are versatile cell-surface proteins integrating structural, biochemical, and physiological functions.
  • The review connects basic biology with translational applications across multiple scientific disciplines.
