Pannexin-1 Modulates Inhibitory Transmission and Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2023 Pannexin-1 (Panx1) hemichannel is a non-selective transmembrane channel that may play important roles in intercellular signaling by allowing the permeation of ions and metabolites, such as ATP. Although recent evidence shows that the Panx1 hemichannel is

Pannexin 1 channels in skeletal muscles [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2014 Normal myotubes and adult innervated skeletal myofibers express the glycoprotein pannexin1 (Panx1). Six of them form a gap junction hemichannel-like structure that connects the cytoplasm with the extracellular space; here they will be called Panx1 ...

Pannexin 1 activity in astroglia sets hippocampal neuronal network patterns [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2022 Astroglial release of molecules is thought to actively modulate neuronal activity, but the nature, release pathway, and cellular targets of these neuroactive molecules are still unclear.

Pannexin 1 Influences Lineage Specification of Human iPSCs [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Every single cell in the body communicates with nearby cells to locally organize activities with their neighbors and dysfunctional cell-cell communication can be detrimental during cell lineage commitment, tissue patterning and organ development ...

Emerging functions of Pannexin 1 in the eye [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014 Pannexin 1 (Panx1) is a high-conductance, voltage-gated channel protein found in vertebrates. It has been shown that Panx1 is widely expressed in many organs and tissues, including sensory systems.

Pannexin 1 targets mitophagy to mediate renal ischemia/reperfusion injury [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2023 Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury contributes to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). Kidney is the second organ rich in mitochondrial content next to the heart. Mitochondrial damage substantially contributes for AKI development. Mitophagy

Novel Naphthyridones Targeting Pannexin 1 for Colitis Management. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)AbstractPannexin 1 (PANX1) forms cell-surface channels capable of releasing signaling metabolites for diverse patho-physiological processes. While inhibiting dysregulated PANX1 is proposed as a therapeutic strategy for many pathological conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), low efficacy or poor specificity of classical PANX1 ...

Cryo-EM structures of pannexin 1 and 3 reveal differences among pannexin isoforms [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsPannexins are single-membrane large-pore channels that release ions and ATP upon activation. Three isoforms of pannexins 1, 2, and 3, perform diverse cellular roles and differ in their pore lining residues.

Pannexin 1 induces Rhabdomyosarcoma cell fusion by downregulating APOBEC2 [PDF]
OncogenesisRhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an aggressive cancer thought to arise from impaired myogenesis. This can be substantially overcome by increasing the levels of pannexin 1 (PANX1), a critical component of the myogenic program, but the mechanism involved is ...

The Role of Pannexin-1 Channels in HIV and NeuroHIV Pathogenesis [PDF]
Cells, 2022 The human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV) enters the brain shortly after infection, leading to long-term neurological complications in half of the HIV-infected population, even in the current anti-retroviral therapy (ART) era. Despite decades of research,
