Pharmacological manipulation of the immediate effects of spinal trauma in neonatal rats reveals a crucial role for TRPV4 receptors

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A, schematic illustration of the ventral aspect of an ex vivo preparation of the entire CNS from a neonatal rat subjected to a calibrated thoracic impact. The trauma induced a large depolarising injury potential (DIP, black trace) recorded from the L5 ventral root (VRrL5), which was markedly reduced by transient receptor ...

Flow cytometry identifies an early stage of platelet apoptosis produced by agonists of the P2X1 and P2X7 receptors

open access: yesPlatelets, 2022
Platelets express P2X1 receptors and our data also show the expression of P2X7 receptors. We studied the role of both receptors in platelet apoptosis by incubation of PRP with P2X agonists, then centrifuged to remove viable platelets, and analyzed the ...

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 ...

Bradykinin Contributes to Sympathetic and Pressor Responses Evoked by Activation of Skeletal Muscle Afferents P2X in Heart Failure

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2016
Background/Aims: Published data suggest that purinergic P2X receptors of muscle afferent nerves contribute to the enhanced sympathetic nervous activity (SNA) and blood pressure (BP) responses during static exercise in heart failure (HF).

Energetic microdomains and the vascular control of neuronal and muscle excitability: Toward a unified model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability.

Manipulation of P2X Receptor Activities by Light Stimulation

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2016
P2X receptors are involved in amplification of inflammatory responses in peripheral nociceptive fibers and in mediating pain-related signals to the CNS.

Evolution of P2X receptors [PDF]

open access: yesWiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Membrane Transport and Signaling, 2012
AbstractPurines appear to be the most primitive and widespread chemical messengers in all kingdoms of the Domain Eucarya. There is evidence for purinergic signaling in plants, invertebrates, and lower vertebrates from protozoa to birds. Much is based on pharmacological studies, but important recent papers have utilized the techniques of molecular ...

pH‐Dependent Microenvironmental Ionic Signaling in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) develops within a uniquely dynamic pH landscape shaped by substantial acid–base fluxes produced by the exocrine pancreas. Secretion of alkaline pancreatic juice, normally linked to digestion, produces intermittent acidifications of the pancreatic interstitium, which challenges epithelial and stromal ...

Pharmacology of P2X receptors [PDF]

open access: yesWiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Membrane Transport and Signaling, 2011
AbstractP2X receptors are ligand‐gated cation channels that mediate many of the extracellular actions of adenosine 5′‐triphosphate (ATP). The genes encoding seven different P2X subunits, P2X1–7, have been cloned and when expressed alone all P2X subunits form functional receptors, except P2X6, which usually only assembles in a heteromeric form. Subunits

P2X7R deficiency alleviates cardiac senescence by enhancing mitophagy via the HuR/TRIM26/NR4A1 axis

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
P2X7R regulates the nucleoplasmic translocation of HuR, thereby enhancing the stability of the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM26. TRIM26 directly binds to NR4A1 and promotes its ubiquitination, thereby suppressing mitophagy and increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production.
