Extracellular ATP drives systemic inflammation, tissue damage and mortality [PDF]

, 2014
Systemic inflammatory response syndromes (SIRS) may be caused by both infectious and sterile insults, such as trauma, ischemia-reperfusion or burns. They are characterized by early excessive inflammatory cytokine production and the endogenous release of ...

Non‐ionotropic NMDAR signalling activates Panx1 to induce P2X4R‐dependent long‐term depression in the hippocampus

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Stimulation of the Shaffer collateral pathway at 3 Hz activates non‐ionotropic NMDA receptors. This subsequently leads to Src kinase mediated phosphorylation of pannexin‐1 (Panx1), which releases ATP from the postsynaptic cell. ATP acts as a ligand for P2X4 receptors to induce long‐term depression (LTD). Abstract In recent years,

TheP2Yreceptors and thrombosis [PDF]

Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Membrane Transport and Signaling, 2013
Blood platelets play a key role in arterial thrombosis which is one of the leading causes of mortality in western countries. They may also be involved in the pathogenesis of deep vein thrombosis. Adenosine 5′‐diphosphate (ADP) is one of the most important mediators of platelet activation.

P2X1 and P2X5 subunits form the functional P2X receptor in mouse cortical astrocytes [PDF]

, 2008
ATP plays an important role in signal transduction between neuronal and glial circuits and within glial networks. Here we describe currents activated by ATP in astrocytes acutely isolated from cortical brain slices by non-enzymatic mechanical ...

Dual role for pannexin 1 at synapses: regulating functional and morphological plasticity

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pannexin 1 (PANX1) regulation of dendritic spines. The postnatal decrease in PANX1 expression could release key spine cytoskeleton‐regulating proteins enabling spine stabilization. Does the physiological decrease in neuronal PANX1 levels across brain development underlie dendritic spine maturation?

Contributions of synaptic energetic dysfunction by microtubule dynamics and microtubule‐based mitochondrial transport disorder to morphine tolerance

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 17, Page 4058-4079, September 2025.
Abstract Background and Purpose Morphine is among the most powerful analgesic, but its long‐term use can cause tolerance. Synaptic ATP supply is critical for maintaining synaptic transmission. Microtubule‐based mitochondrial transport ensures synaptic energy supply.

Regional differences in store-operated Ca2+ entry in the epithelium of the intact human lens [PDF]

, 2009
An elevated level of Ca2+ is an important factor in cataract, yet precisely how Ca2+ enters the lens is unknown. Lens epithelial cells contain a range of G-protein–coupled receptors and receptor tyrosine kinases that induce increases in intracellular Ca2+

Adenosine Receptor Agonists Exhibit Anti-Platelet Effects and the Potential to Overcome Resistance to P2Y₁₂ Receptor Antagonists

Molecules, 2019
Large inter-individual variation in platelet response to endogenous agonists and pharmacological agents, including resistance to antiplatelet therapy, prompts a search for novel platelet inhibitors and development new antithrombotic strategies.

The Aquaporin‐4 Expression and Localization in the Olfactory Epithelium Modulate the Odorant‐Evoked Responses and Olfactory‐Driven Behavior

Glia, Volume 73, Issue 8, Page 1642-1659, August 2025.
Main Points AQP4ex and OAP‐forming AQP4M23 are expressed in non‐neuronal cells of the olfactory epithelium. AQP4ex‐KO and OAP‐null mice show reduced cell density, including OSNs, and impaired odor responses and behavior, with AQP4ex emerging as key regulator.

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in Ischaemic Heart Disease: Lessons From Large Animal Models

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 137, Issue 2, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The coronary microvasculature is principally responsible for matching coronary blood flow to myocardial demand of oxygen and nutrients. Short‐term control of coronary blood flow is achieved via alterations in coronary microvascular tone, whereas long‐term control of coronary flow also involves remodelling of the coronary microvasculature ...
