GPR17: Molecular modeling and dynamics studies of the 3-D structure and purinergic ligand binding features in comparison with P2Y receptors

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2008
Background GPR17 is a G-protein-coupled receptor located at intermediate phylogenetic position between two distinct receptor families: the P2Y and CysLT receptors for extracellular nucleotides and cysteinyl-LTs, respectively.

Prothrombotic Activation of Platelet Pannexin‐1 Channels in Antiphospholipid Syndrome

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective ATP is released from platelets through both degranulation and pannexin‐1 (PANX1) channels. ATP then activates P2X receptors to amplify platelet activation via calcium‐dependent signaling. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of platelet PANX1 channels in the pathophysiology of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), an acquired ...

P2Y₂ Nucleotide Receptors Expressed Heterologously in Sympathetic Neurons Inhibit Both N-Type Ca²⁺ and M-Type K⁺ Currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The P2Y₂ receptor is a uridine/adenosine triphosphate (UTP/ATP)-sensitive G-protein-linked nucleotide receptor that previously has been reported to stimulate the phosphoinositide signaling pathway.

Purinergic mechanosensory transduction and visceral pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this review, evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that mechanosensory transduction occurs in tubes and sacs and can initiate visceral pain.

Quantitative Super-Resolution Imaging for the Analysis of GPCR Oligomerization

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are known to form homo- and hetero- oligomers which are considered critical to modulate their function. However, studying the existence and functional implication of these complexes is not straightforward as ...

Causal Effects of Hydrophilic Bile Acids on Carfilzomib‐Related Cardiovascular Events in Multiple Myeloma: A Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Carfilzomib is highly effective in the treatment of multiple myeloma, but it has been associated with cardiovascular adverse events that impact patient outcomes. Our prior global metabolomic analyses indicated an association between hydrophilic bile acids and carfilzomib‐cardiotoxicity risk, although a causal relationship remained to be determined ...

Activation of the P2Y2 receptor regulates bone cell function by enhancing ATP release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bone cells constitutively release ATP into the extracellular environment where it acts locally via P2 receptors to regulate bone cell function. Whilst P2Y2 receptor stimulation regulates bone mineralisation, the functional effects of this receptor in ...

Unraveling the Mechanism of Platelet Aggregation Suppression by Monoterpenoids

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
Platelet aggregation causes various diseases and therefore challenges the development of novel antiaggregatory drugs. In this study, we report the possible mechanism of platelet aggregation suppression by newly synthesized myrtenol-derived monoterpenoids

Pharmacology of P2Y receptors

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin, 2019
P2Y receptors are G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) for extracellular nucleotides. There are eight mammalian P2Y receptor subtypes divided into two subgroups (P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y6, and P2Y11) and (P2Y12, P2Y13, and P2Y14). The P2Y receptors are expressed in various cell types and play important roles in physiology and pathophysiology including ...

Mechanisms of spinal glial activation in chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy: Focus on microglia and astrocytes

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) remains a major clinical challenge, with central sensitization considered an important pathological mechanism in its occurrence and persistence. This review focuses on spinal astrocytes and microglia, systematically summarizing the pathological mechanisms of spinal glial cells involved in CIPN caused by
