Evidence for Extracellular ATP as a Stress Signal in a Single-Celled Organism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
ATP is omnipresent in biology and acts as an extracellular signaling molecule in mammals. Information regarding the signaling function of extracellular ATP in single-celled eukaryotes is lacking.

Extracellular ATP [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Signaling & Behavior, 2009
Living organisms acquire or synthesize high energy molecules, which they frugally conserve and use to meet their cellular metabolic demands. Therefore, it is surprising that ATP, the most accessible and commonly utilized chemical energy carrier, is actively secreted to the extracellular matrix of cells.

Modulation of Extracellular ATP Content of Mast Cells and DRG Neurons by Irradiation: Studies on Underlying Mechanism of Low-Level-Laser Therapy

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2015
Low-level-laser therapy (LLLT) is an effective complementary treatment, especially for anti-inflammation and wound healing in which dermis or mucus mast cells (MCs) are involved.

Ambient but not local lactate underlies neuronal tolerance to prolonged glucose deprivation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Neurons require a nearly constant supply of ATP. Glucose is the predominant source of brain ATP, but the direct effects of prolonged glucose deprivation on neuronal viability and function remain unclear.

Lytic Release of Cellular ATP: Physiological Relevance and Therapeutic Applications

open access: yesLife, 2021
The lytic release of ATP due to cell and tissue injury constitutes an important source of extracellular nucleotides and may have physiological and pathophysiological roles by triggering purinergic signalling pathways.

Insulin restores metabolic function in cultured cortical neurons subjected to oxidative stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We previously demonstrated that insulin has a neuroprotective role against oxidative stress, a deleterious condition associated with diabetes, ischemia, and age-related neurodegenerative diseases.

Phosphorylation-mediated regulation of integrin-linked kinase 5 by purinoreceptor P2K2

open access: yesPlant Signaling & Behavior, 2023
Extracellular ATP (eATP) in plants plays a crucial role as a ligand for purinoreceptors, mediating purinergic signaling and regulating diverse biological functions, including responses to abiotic and biotic stresses.

Calcium-sensing receptor activation increases cell-cell adhesion and ß-cell function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background/Aims: The extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is expressed in pancreatic β-cells where it is thought to facilitate cell-to-cell communication and augment insulin secretion.

Energy-requiring uptake of prostasomes and PC3 cell-derived exosomes into non-malignant and malignant cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2016
Epithelial cells lining the prostate acini release, in a regulated manner (exocytosis), nanosized vesicles called prostasomes that belong to the exosome family.

ER localized bestrophin1 activates Ca2+ dependent ion channels TMEM16A and SK4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Bestrophins form Ca2+ activated Cl- channels and regulate intercellular Ca2+ signaling1. We demonstrate that bestrophin 1 is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it physically interacts with stromal interacting molecule 1 (Stim1), the ER ...
