Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Induces ATP Release via Volume-Regulated Anion Channels in Breast Cell Lines
High interstitial level of ATP and its lysate adenosine in the cancer microenvironment are considered a halo mark of cancer. Adenosine acts as a strong immune suppressor. However, the source of ATP release is unclear.

The dynamics of single spike-evoked adenosine release in the cerebellum [PDF]
The purine adenosine is a potent neuromodulator in the brain, with roles in a number of diverse physiological and pathological processes. Modulators such as adenosine are difficult to study as once released they have a diffuse action (which can affect ...

A computational model of a microfluidic device to measure the dynamics of oxygen-dependent ATP release from erythrocytes. [PDF]
Erythrocytes are proposed to be involved in blood flow regulation through both shear- and oxygen-dependent mechanisms for the release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a potent vasodilator.

Multiple P2Y receptors couple to calcium-dependent, chloride channels in smooth muscle cells of the rat pulmonary artery [PDF]
Uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) and uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) act via P2Y receptors to evoke contraction of rat pulmonary arteries, whilst adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) acts via P2X and P2Y receptors.

Activity-dependent release of Adenosine: a critical re-evaluation of mechanism [PDF]
Adenosine is perhaps the most important and universal modulator in the brain. The current consensus is that it is primarily produced in the extracellular space from the breakdown of previously released ATP.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate is released from the cytosol of rat platelets in a carrier-mediated manner
Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is accumulated in platelets and released on stimulation by thrombin or Ca2+. Thrombin-stimulated S1P release was inhibited by staurosporin, whereas Ca2+-stimulated release was not.

Activity-dependent adenosine release may be linked to activation of Na+-K+ ATPase : an in vitro rat study [PDF]
In the brain, extracellular adenosine increases as a result of neuronal activity. The mechanisms by which this occurs are only incompletely understood. Here we investigate the hypothesis that the Na+ influxes associated with neuronal signalling activate ...

The thermodynamics of metabolism, cardiovascular performance and exercise, in health and diabetes: The objective of clinical markers [PDF]
Extensive experience in UK National Health Service metabolic syndrome/type 2 diabetes clinics highlights the need for convenient clinical marker(s) which can be readily used to indicate the success or otherwise of alternative therapies.

Purinergic responses of chondrogenic stem cells to dynamic loading [PDF]
In habitually loaded tissues, dynamic loading can trigger ATP (adenosine 5’- triphosphate) release to extracellular environment, and result in calcium signaling via ATP binding to purine P2 receptors1.

Sympathetic nerve-derived ATP regulates renal medullary blood flow via vasa recta pericytes [PDF]
Pericyte cells are now known to be a novel locus of blood flow control, being able to regulate capillary diameter via their unique morphology and expression of contractile proteins. We have previously shown that exogenous ATP causes constriction of vasa
