Regulation of the leading edge motility by PI (4,5)P2-dependent lipid microdomains [PDF]
The lipid second messenger PI(4,5)P2 modulates actin dynamics, and its local accumulation at plasmalemmal microdomains (rafts) might mediate regulation of protrusive motility.

Role of the P2 × 7 receptor in neurodegenerative diseases and its pharmacological properties
Neurodegenerative diseases seriously affect patients’ physical and mental health, reduce their quality of life, and impose a heavy burden on society. However, their treatment remains challenging.

Membrane-mediated dimerization potentiates PIP5K lipid kinase activity
The phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) family of lipid-modifying enzymes generate the majority of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] lipids found at the plasma membrane in eukaryotic cells.

Ontogeny of purinergic receptor-regulated Ca2+ signaling in mouse cortical collecting duct epithelium [PDF]
Changes in ATP-induced increase in {[}Ca2+], during collecting duct ontogeny were studied in primary monolayer cultures of mouse ureteric bud (UB) and cortical collecting duct (CCD) cells by Fura-PE3 fluorescence ratio imaging.

Extracellular Nucleotides and P2 Receptors in Renal Function [PDF]
The understanding of the nucleotide/P2 receptor system in the regulation of renal hemodynamics and transport function has grown exponentially over the last 20 yr. This review attempts to integrate the available data while also identifying areas of missing information.

P2 Receptors: Novel Disease Markers and Metabolic Checkpoints in Immune Cells
Extracellular ATP (eATP) and P2 receptors are novel emerging regulators of T-lymphocyte responses. Cellular ATP is released via multiple pathways and accumulates at sites of tissue damage and inflammation. P2 receptor expression and function are affected

P2 receptors in atherosclerosis and postangioplasty restenosis [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is an immunoinflammatory process that involves complex interactions between the vessel wall and blood components and is thought to be initiated by endothelial dysfunction [1-3]. Extracellular nucleotides that are released from a variety of arterial and blood cells [4] can bind to P2 receptors and modulate proliferation and migration of ...
