KCl -Permeabilized Pancreatic Islets: An Experimental Model to Explore the Messenger Role of ATP in the Mechanism of Insulin Secretion. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Our previous work has demonstrated that islet depolarization with KCl opens connexin36 hemichannels in β-cells of mouse pancreatic islets allowing the exchange of small metabolites with the extracellular medium.

Extracellular ATP signaling in plants [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cell Biology, 2010
Extracellular adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP) induces a number of cellular responses in plants and animals. Some of the molecular components for purinergic signaling in animal cells appear to be lacking in plant cells, although some cellular responses are similar in both systems [e.g.

ATP is an essential autocrine factor for pancreatic β‐cell signaling and insulin secretion

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2022
ATP has been previously identified as an autocrine signaling factor that is co‐released with insulin to modulate and propagate β‐cell activity within islets of Langerhans.

Optical ATP biosensor for extracellular ATP measurement [PDF]

open access: yesBiosensors and Bioelectronics, 2013
Extracellular Adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) is an important multi-functional molecule which can mediate numerous physiological activities by activating purinergic P2 receptors. The objective of this study was to develop a novel optical ATP sensor for in-situ extracellular ATP measurement in biological tissues.

Imaging extracellular ATP with a genetically-encoded, ratiometric fluorescent sensor. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a key purinergic signal that mediates cell-to-cell communication both within and between organ systems. We address the need for a robust and minimally invasive approach to measuring extracellular ATP by re ...

Molecular and Pharmacological Evidence for the Expression of Multiple Functional P2 Purinergic Receptors in Human Adipocytes

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Extracellular ATP exerts important functions as an extracellular signaling molecule via the activation of specific P2 purinergic receptors (P2X and P2Y).

Extracellular Adenosine Triphosphate Binding to P2Y1 Receptors Prevents Glutamate-Induced Excitotoxicity: Involvement of Erk1/2 Signaling Pathway to Suppress Autophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Glutamate-induced neuroexcitotoxicity could be related to the pathophysiology of some neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.

Ecto-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 2 modulates local ATP-induced calcium signaling in human HaCaT keratinocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Keratinocytes are the major building blocks of the human epidermis. In many physiological and pathophysiological conditions, keratinocytes release adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as an autocrine/paracrine mediator that regulates cell proliferation ...

Extracellular ATP and Neurodegeneration

open access: yesCurrent Drug Target -CNS & Neurological Disorders, 2003
ATP is a potent signaling molecule abundantly present in the CNS. It elicits a wide array of physiological effects and is regarded as the phylogenetically most ancient epigenetic factor playing crucial biological roles in several different tissues. These can range from neurotransmission, smooth muscle contraction, chemosensory signaling, secretion and ...

Macrophage Response Driven by Extracellular ATP

open access: yesBiological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2021
The purine nucleotide ATP is a fundamental unit in cellular energy metabolism. Extracellular ATP and its metabolites are also ligands for a family of receptors, known as purinergic receptors, which are expressed ubiquitously in almost every cell type.
