Light-induced ATP release from the lens [PDF]

Purinergic Signalling, 2018
The recent discovery of the photoreceptor melanopsin in lens epithelial cells has opened the possibility of modulating this protein by light stimulation. Experiments carried out on New Zealand white rabbits have demonstrated that the release of ATP from the lens to the aqueous humor can be reduced either when a yellow filter or a melanopsin antagonist ...

Adjunctive Therapeutic Plasma Exchange in Refractory Adult‐Onset Still's Disease Complicated by Secondary Macrophage Activation Syndrome: A Single‐Center Experience

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.

Role of the Intracellular Nucleoside Transporter ENT3 in Transmitter and High K Stimulation of Astrocytic ATP Release Investigated Using siRNA Against ENT3

ASN Neuro, 2014
This study investigates the role of the intracellular adenosine transporter equilibrative nucleoside transporter 3 (ENT3) in stimulated release of the gliotransmitter adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from astrocytes.

ATP release pathways in vascular endothelial cells

Folia Pharmacologica Japonica, 2004
Vascular endothelial cells regulate vascular tonus, growth, and angiogenesis in response to mechanical stresses. ATP release is one of well-known mechanosensitive responses in endothelial cells. Released ATP induces Ca(2+) responses and nitric oxide production in neighboring cells in an auto/paracrine manner.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Deoxygenation Affects Composition of Membrane-Bound Proteins in Human Erythrocytes

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2016
Background/Aims: ATP release from erythrocyte plays a key role in hypoxia-induced elevation of blood flow in systematic circulation. We have previously shown that hemolysis contributes to erythrocyte ATP release triggered by several stimuli, including ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Constitutive and evoked release of ATP in adult mouse olfactory epithelium

Open Life Sciences
In adult olfactory epithelium (OE), ATP plays a role in constant cell turnover and post-injury neuroregeneration. We previously demonstrated that constitutive and ATP-evoked ATP release are present in neonatal mouse OE and underlie continuous cell turn ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
