Synergistic Effects of Bacterial Mimetic and Mechanical Stimulation in Dental Pulp Cell Inflammatory Signalling: A Laboratory Investigation

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Mechanical and/or microbial stimuli can prompt extracellular ATP release in many cell types, where it acts as an inflammatory mediator to amplify pain signals and inflammation. This study aimed to investigate the synergistic effects of microbial and/or mechanical stimulation on ATP and cytokine release from dental pulp cells (DPCs ...

Generierung und Charakterisierung transgener BAC-P2X3-Mäuse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
To examine the expression of the P2X3 receptor interest to the development of chronic neuropathic and inflammatory pain, the aim of this work was the generation of a BAC transgenic P2X3-EGFP-reporter mouse and the subsequent characterisation of the P2X3 ...

One Mean Gene: How P2X3 Makes Asthma Worse in Women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Kee\u27s research involves mast cells, the primary immune cell involved with asthma and allergies. Her research shows that IL33 elicits an ATP release acting on the P2X3 receptor hypothesized only to be present females, creating a feed-forward loop ...

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors mediate sustained sympathoexcitation during high altitude hypoxia in humans

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.

Immunohistochemical study of the P2X2 and P2X3 receptor subunits in rat and monkey sensory neurons and their central terminals

open access: yes, 1997
Of the cloned P2X receptor subunits, six are expressed in sensory neurons, suggesting that the native channels may be heteromultimers with diverse composition. It has been proposed that P2X2 and P2X3 form heteromultimers in sensory neurons.

Anatomical and functional mapping of vagal nociceptive sensory nerve subsets innervating the mouse lower airways by intersectional genetics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We used an intersectional approach with recombinase‐expressing mice and adeno‐associated virus to map and modulate distinct nociceptive afferents in the vagal ganglia. TRPV1+P2X2+ neurons resided in the nodose ganglion (N), innervated the lungs (many projected into the alveoli) but not the trachea, and projected to the nucleus ...

High‐altitude headache: Insights into pathophysiology and potential treatment implications

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude headache occurs during prolonged exposure to low oxygen, such as during ascent to high altitude. Several risk factors increase its likelihood, with the degree of hypoxia, often driven by rapid ascent to greater altitudes, being the most prominent factor.

P2X3 receptor antagonism improves hindlimb blood flow during exercise in a conscious ovine model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A preclinical large‐animal model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) was used to examine the role of purinergic P2X3 receptor signalling during treadmill exercise. Animals were instrumented with either thoracic cardiac output and coronary flow probes or abdominal renal and hindlimb blood flow ...

Deletion of P2X2 and P2X3 receptor subunits does not alter motility of the mouse colon

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2010
Purinergic P2X receptors contribute to neurotransmission in the gut. P2X receptors are ligand-gated cation channels that mediate synaptic excitation in subsets of enteric neurons.

Pregabalin Efficacy in Treatment of Chronic Neurogenic Cough

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 11, Page 4938-4944, November 2026.
The use of neuromodulators for chronic cough has increased; however, the choice of medication, dosing regimen, and duration are still unclear. This longitudinal study of 95 adults taking pregabalin, 75 mg twice daily, for CNC demonstrated 78% improvement or resolution of cough, 17% unchanged, 1% worse cough, with a mean of 6 weeks of therapy, and only ...
