Serum P2X7 as a prognostic biomarker in acute supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage: a two-center observational study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
IntroductionP2X7 participates in neuroinflammation underlying acute brain injury. In this study, we investigated the prognostic role of serum P2X7 in acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).MethodsThis two-center observational analytic study enrolled 95 ...

Affinity-guided labeling reveals P2X7 nanoscale membrane redistribution during BV2 microglial activation [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
ATP-gated purinergic P2X7 receptors are crucial ion channels involved in inflammation. They sense abnormal ATP release during stress or injury and are considered promising clinical targets for therapeutic intervention.

ATP/P2X7 receptor signal aggravates ischemic stroke injury by activating Th17 cells via STAT3/IL-21 pathway [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
BackgroundDuring cerebral ischemia, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is released into the extracellular matrix from damaged neurons and glial cells, functioning as a danger signal.

Macrophage expression of P2X7 controls autoimmune uveitis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation
The release of danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) such as ATP from stressed or damaged cells is a key initiator of sterile inflammation. In autoimmune diseases, extracellular ATP acts as a potent pro-inflammatory signal by activating the ...

P2X7 a new therapeutic target to block vesicle-dependent metastasis in colon carcinoma: Role of the A2A/CD39/CD73 axis [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Extracellular vesicle-driven cancer metastasis represents a therapeutic challenge due to the lack of effective blocking drugs. Our study shows that activation of the P2X7 receptor on colon carcinoma cells causes the release of vesicles carrying CD39 and ...

Effective targeting of microglial P2X7 following intracerebroventricular delivery of nanobodies and nanobody-encoding AAVs

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
The P2X7 ion channel is a key sensor for extracellular ATP and a key trigger of sterile inflammation. Intravenous injection of nanobodies that block P2X7 has shown to be beneficial in mouse models of systemic inflammation.

P2X7 receptor in inflammation and pain

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin, 2022
Different studies have confirmed P2X7 receptor-mediated inflammatory mediators play a key role in the development of pain. P2X7 receptor activation can induce the development of pain by mediating the release of inflammatory mediators. In view of the fact

P2X7 in Cancer: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutics

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
P2X7 is a transmembrane receptor expressed in multiple cell types including neurons, dendritic cells, macrophages, monocytes, B and T cells where it can drive a wide range of physiological responses from pain transduction to immune response.

P2X7 Purinoceptor Affects Ectopic Calcification of Dystrophic Muscles

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Ectopic calcification (EC) of myofibers is a pathological feature of muscle damage in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Mineralisation of muscle tissue occurs concomitantly with macrophage infiltration, suggesting a link between ectopic mineral ...

P2X7 Receptor-Dependent microRNA Expression Profile in the Brain Following Status Epilepticus in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
The ionotropic ATP-gated P2X7 receptor is an important contributor to inflammatory signaling cascades via the release of Interleukin-1β, as well as having roles in cell death, neuronal plasticity and the release of neurotransmitters.
