Comparative Genomics of Pinna rudis and Pinna nobilis Reveals Conserved and Divergent Features of the Bivalve Defensome

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We present the first high‐quality annotated genome of Pinna rudis and an updated genome assembly for Pinna nobilis, two Mediterranean fan mussel species differentially affected by mass mortality events. Comparative genomic analyses of gene sets associated with the “defensome” show that these genes are largely functionally conserved between the two ...

A shared mechanism for TNP-ATP recognition by members of the P2X receptor family

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal
P2X receptors (P2X1–7) are non-selective cation channels involved in many physiological activities such as synaptic transmission, immunological modulation, and cardiovascular function.

Spatio‐Temporal Diversity of Calcium Activity in Microglia

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
Ca2+ activity mostly occurs in microglial processes and stays localized. When it spreads, it often shows a directional bias and is constrained by branch points. Activity strongly relies on P2Y12 receptors and is shaped by neuronal activity. ABSTRACT Microglia, the brain's innate immune cells, possess complex, highly motile branched processes. These act

P2X receptors as targets for the treatment of status epilepticus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Prolonged seizures are amongst the most common neurological emergencies. Status epilepticus is a state of continuous seizures that is life-threatening and prompt termination of status epilepticus is critical to protect the brain from permanent damage ...

Expression of Purinergic and Endothelial Activation Markers in Brain Tissue From Fatal Microcephaly Associated With ZIKV

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Zika virus (ZIKV) is a flavivirus that has gained global attention due to its association with congenital microcephaly and neuroinflammatory responses. Markers of endothelial activation and purinergic signaling have been identified in the context of ZIKV neuropathogenesis, although the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Purinergic receptors are involved in tooth-pulp evoked nocifensive behavior and brainstem neuronal activity

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2010
Background To evaluate whether P2X receptors are involved in responses to noxious pulp stimulation, the P2X3 and P2X2/3 receptor agonist α,β-methyleneATP (α,β-meATP) was applied to the molar tooth pulp and nocifensive behavior and extracellular-signal ...

P2X receptors and acupuncture analgesia

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin, 2019
Purinergic signaling has recently been suggested to constitute the cellular mechanism underlying acupuncture-induced analgesia (AA). By extending the original hypothesis on endogenous opioids being released during AA, Geoffrey Burnstock and Maiken Nedergaard supplied evidence for the involvement of purinoceptors (P2 and P1/A1 receptors) in the ...

Enhancing Urban Flood Loss Mapping by Integrating ANFIS Classifier With a Two‐Dimensional Hydrodynamic Model

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Flood loss mapping is one of the essential prerequisites for urban flood assessment studies to identify areas vulnerable to floods and to make cities safe and resilient. This study develops a neuro‐fuzzy loss model to generate flood loss maps, classifying loss levels into several categories ranging from no loss to severe loss.

Point Mutation in the Mouse P2X Receptor Affects Intercellular Calcium Waves in Astrocytes

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2009
Purinergic P2 receptors and gap junctions are two groups of proteins involved in the transmission of ICWs (intercellular calcium waves) between astrocytes.
