Modeling interactions among individual P2 receptors to explain complex response patterns over a wide range of ATP concentrations [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2016 EExtracellular ATP acts on the P2X family of ligand-gated ion channels and several members of the P2Y family of G protein-coupled receptors to mediate intercellular communication among many cell types including bone-forming osteoblasts.

Molecular Modeling Applied to the Discovery of New Lead Compounds for P2 Receptors Based on Natural Sources [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 P2 receptors are a family of transmembrane receptors activated by nucleotides and nucleosides. Two classes have been described in mammals, P2X and P2Y, which are implicated in various diseases.

P2 Receptors and Platelet Activation [PDF]
The Scientific World Journal, 2002 Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) plays a crucial role in hemostasis and thrombosis by activating platelets. In platelets, the classical P2T receptor is now resolved into three P2 receptor subtypes: the P2Y1, the P2Y12, and the P2X1 receptors.

Activation of basal forebrain purinergic P2 receptors promotes wakefulness in mice [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 The functions of purinergic P2 receptors (P2Rs) for extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) are poorly understood. Here, for the first time, we show that activation of P2Rs in an important arousal region, the basal forebrain (BF), promotes wakefulness,

Multiple P2Y receptors couple to calcium-dependent, chloride channels in smooth muscle cells of the rat pulmonary artery [PDF]
, 2005 Uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) and uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) act via P2Y receptors to evoke contraction of rat pulmonary arteries, whilst adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) acts via P2X and P2Y receptors.

Alzheimer and Purinergic Signaling: Just a Matter of Inflammation?
Cells, 2021 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a widespread neurodegenerative pathology responsible for about 70% of all cases of dementia. Adenosine is an endogenous nucleoside that affects neurodegeneration by activating four membrane G protein-coupled receptor subtypes,
