P1 and P2 purinergic receptor signal transduction in rat type II pneumocytes
Extracellular ATP is a potent agonist of surfactant phosphatidylcholine (PC) exocytosis from type II pneumocytes in culture. We studied P1 and P2 receptor signal transduction in type II pneumocytes.

Adenosine receptors as emerging therapeutic targets for diabetic kidney disease [PDF]
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is now a pandemic worldwide, and novel therapeutic options are urgently required. Adenosine, an adenosine triphosphate metabolite, plays a role in kidney homeostasis through interacting with four types of adenosine receptors

Effects of prolactin on movement disorders and APOE, GFAP, and PRL receptor gene expression following intracerebral hemorrhage in rats [PDF]
Objective(s): Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) occurs mostly in the striatum. In ICH, blood prolactin level increases 3-fold. The effects of intracerebroventricular injection (ICV) of prolactin on motor disorders will be investigated. Materials and Methods:

Obesity has become one of the major public health problems in both the developing and developed countries. Recent studies have suggested that the purinergic signalling is involved in obesity-associated end-organ damage through purine P1 and P2 receptors.

Objective: Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4A) has been demonstrated to be an oncogene in gastric cancer (GC). However, the roles of different HNF4A isoforms derived from the 2 different promoters (P1 and P2) and the underlying mechanisms remain obscure.

Mucosal nasal vaccine development, although ideal to protect from pathogens invading mucosally, is limited by the lack of specific adjuvant. We recently used P1, a conserved region of HIV-1 gp41-envelope glycoprotein, as efficient antigen in a ...

Vimentin Is an Attachment Receptor for Mycoplasma pneumoniae P1 Protein
Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the most common pathogen causing respiratory tract infection, and the P1 protein on its adhesion organelle plays a crucial role during the pathogenic process. A variety of experiments, including enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), coimmunoprecipitation, adhesion, and adhesion inhibition assay ...

A dual regulation mechanism of histidine kinase CheA identified by combining network-dynamics modeling and system-level input-output data. [PDF]
It is challenging to decipher molecular mechanisms in biological systems from system-level input-output data, especially for complex processes that involve interactions among multiple components.
