Molecular mechanisms of human P2X3 receptor channel activation and modulation by divalent cation bound ATP [PDF]
P2X3 receptor channels expressed in sensory neurons are activated by extracellular ATP and serve important roles in nociception and sensory hypersensitization, making them attractive therapeutic targets.

Geoffery Burnstock’s influence on the evolution of P2X3 receptor pharmacology [PDF]
I first met Geoffery Burnstock in 1985 while working as a young post-doctoral fellow for Michael Williams at CIBA-Geigy Corporation. During that time, we were researching the role of adenosine in stroke and cardiovascular disease. These research efforts crystallized into a drug discovery program aimed at developing selective adenosine receptor agonists

Piezo1-pannexin-1-P2X3 axis in odontoblasts and neurons mediates sensory transduction in dentinal sensitivity [PDF]
According to the “hydrodynamic theory,” dentinal pain or sensitivity is caused by dentinal fluid movement following the application of various stimuli to the dentin surface.

Role of P2X3 receptor in dorsal root ganglion in colitis-induced bladder overactivity
Objective To investigate the role of P2X3 receptor in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) in bladder micturition function due to colitis-induced bladder dysfunction in the rat model of 2, 4, 6-trinitrosulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis.

Previous studies have demonstrated that acute colonic inflammation leads to an increase in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neuronal excitability. However, the signaling elements implicated in this hyperexcitability have yet to be fully unraveled. Extracellular
