Ocular P2 receptors and glaucoma

Neuropharmacology, 2023
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an energy source currency in cells, is released or leaked to the extracellular space under both physiological and pathological conditions. Extracellular ATP functions as an intercellular signaling molecule through activation of purinergic P2 receptors.

P2 receptors: intracellular signaling

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2006
P2 receptors for extracellular nucleotides are divided into two categories: the ion channel receptors (P2X) and the G-protein-coupled receptors (P2Y). For the P2X receptors, signal transduction appears to be relatively simple. Upon activation by extracellular ATP, a channel comprised of P2X receptor subunits opens and allows cations to move across the ...

P2 receptors and cancer

Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
Purinergic signalling has been implicated in many biological processes, and ATP and other extracellular nucleotides might have therapeutic potential in the treatment of cancer by signalling through P2 receptors. Different P2 receptor subtypes have been identified in a variety of different cancer types, in both primary samples of human cancer tissue and

Presynaptic P2 receptors?

Journal of the Autonomic Nervous System, 2000
Although the emphasis in ATP research has been on postjunctional receptors, there is also evidence for presynaptic receptors regulating transmitter release in the autonomic nervous system. Recent work has attempted to identify similar mechanisms in the central nervous system.

P2 receptors in the kidney

Journal of the Autonomic Nervous System, 2000
Our understanding of the actions of extracellular ATP in controlling kidney function via stimulation of P2 receptors is still at an early stage. Recently, several groups, including our own, have begun to address this subject: in this brief review, we discuss some of these effects and speculate on likely function of extracellular nucleotides in the ...

Renal P2 receptors and hypertension

Acta Physiologica, 2014
AbstractThe regulation of extracellular fluid volume is a key component of blood pressure homeostasis. Long‐term blood pressure is stabilized by the acute pressure natriuresis response by which changes in renal perfusion pressure evoke corresponding changes in renal sodium excretion.
