P2X7 Receptor in Hematological Malignancies [PDF]
The P2X7 receptor is an ion channel gated by the nucleotide ATP, known for its role in immune responses and recently emerging as a critical onco-promoting factor.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of HSP90 within the P2X7 receptor complex negatively regulates P2X7 receptors [PDF]
The purinergic P2X7 receptor not only gates the opening of a cationic channel, but also couples to several downstream signaling events such as rapid membrane blebbing, microvesicle shedding, and interleukin-1 release.

Tissue distribution of the P2X7 receptor
The P2X7 receptor is a bifunctional molecule. The binding of ATP induces within milliseconds the opening of a channel selective for small cations, and within seconds a larger pore opens which allows permeation by molecules as large as propidium dyes (629

Radioligands targeting purinergic P2X7 receptor [PDF]
The purinergic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ligand-gated cationic channel receptor. P2X7R is closely associated with various inflammatory, immune, cancer, neurological, musculoskeletal and cardiovascular disorders. P2X7R is an

The P2X7 Receptor in Inflammatory Diseases: Angel or Demon? [PDF]
Under physiological conditions, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is present at low levels in the extracellular milieu, being massively released by stressed or dying cells.

P2X7 Receptor as a Therapeutic Target
P2X7 receptor is an ATP-gated cation channel that upon agonist interaction leads to cellular influx of Na+ and Ca2 + and efflux of K+. P2X7 is expressed by a wide variety of cells and its activation mediates a large number of biological processes like ...

Interaction of Purinergic P2X4 and P2X7 Receptor Subunits [PDF]
P2X4 and P2X7 are members of the P2X receptor family, comprising seven isoforms (P2X1–P2X7) that form homo- and heterotrimeric non-specific cation channels gated by extracellular ATP.

The P2X7 Receptor in Osteoarthritis [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease. With the increasing aging population, the associated socio-economic costs are also increasing. Analgesia and surgery are the primary treatment options in late-stage OA, with drug treatment only possible in early prevention to improve patients’ quality of life. The most important structural component

The P2X7 Receptor in Tumor Immunity [PDF]
Extracellular adenosine triphosphate (eATP) is a potent mediator of the immune response via stimulation of purinergic P2 receptors. ATP concentration in the extracellular space increases dramatically during tissue damage and eATP acts as a danger-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) to alert innate immune system cells for tissue repair.

The P2X7 Receptor in Autoimmunity
The P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) is an ATP-gated nonselective cationic channel that, upon intense stimulation, can progress to the opening of a pore permeable to molecules up to 900 Da. Apart from its broad expression in cells of the innate and adaptive immune systems, it is expressed in multiple cell types in different tissues.
