Pannexin 1 activation and inhibition is permeant‐selective [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2020
Key points The large‐pore channel pannexin 1 (Panx1) is expressed in many cell types and can open upon different, yet not fully established, stimuli. Panx1 permeability is often inferred from channel permeability to fluorescent dyes, but it is currently unknown whether dye permeability translates to permeability to other molecules. Cell shrinkage and C‐

Pannexin 1 in the Regulation of Vascular Tone [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2012
Pannexins are a recently discovered protein family with the isoform Panx1 ubiquitously expressed and therefore extensively studied. Panx1 proteins form membrane channels known to release purines such as ATP. Because ATP and, more generally, purinergic signaling plays an important role in the vasculature, it became evident that Panx1 could have a key ...

Endothelial pannexin-1 channels modulate macrophage and smooth muscle cell activation in abdominal aortic aneurysm formation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Pannexin-1 ion channels on endothelial cells regulate vascular inflammation and remodeling to mediate aortic aneurysm formation. Pharmacological blockade of Pannexin-1 channels may offer translational therapeutic mitigation of aneurysmal pathology.

Probenecid-Blocked Pannexin-1 Channel Protects Against Early Brain Injury via Inhibiting Neuronal AIM2 Inflammasome Activation After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
AimPrevious studies have proved that inhibiting inflammasome activation provides neuroprotection against early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which is mainly focused on the microglial inflammatory response, but the potential role

Novel Naphthyridones Targeting Pannexin 1 for Colitis Management. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Abstract Pannexin 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 ...

Probenecid slows disease progression in a murine model of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
Development of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) involves renal epithelial cell abnormalities. Cystic fluid contains a high level of ATP that, among other effects, leads to a reduced reabsorption of electrolytes in cyst‐lining cells ...

Ubiquitination and Proteasomal Regulation of Pannexin 1 and Pannexin 3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Pannexin 1 (PANX1) and Pannexin 3 (PANX3) are single-membrane channel glycoproteins that allow for communication between the cell and its environment to regulate cellular differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis.

P2X4 assembles with P2X7 and pannexin-1 in gingival epithelial cells and modulates ATP-induced reactive oxygen species production and inflammasome activation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
We have previously reported that Porphyromonas gingivalis infection of gingival epithelial cells (GEC) requires an exogenous danger signal such as ATP to activate an inflammasome and caspase-1, thereby inducing secretion of interleukin (IL)-1β ...

Pannexin 1: The Molecular Substrate of Astrocyte “Hemichannels” [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2009
Purinergic signaling plays distinct and important roles in the CNS, including the transmission of calcium signals between astrocytes. Gap junction hemichannels are among the mechanisms proposed by which astrocytes might release ATP; however, whether the gap junction protein connexin43 (Cx43) forms these “hemichannels” remains controversial. Recently, a

Intrinsic properties and regulation of Pannexin 1 channel [PDF]

open access: yesChannels, 2014
Pannexin 1 (Panx1) channels are generally represented as non-selective, large-pore channels that release ATP. Emerging roles have been described for Panx1 in mediating purinergic signaling in the normal nervous, cardiovascular, and immune systems, where they may be activated by mechanical stress, ionotropic and metabotropic receptor signaling, and via ...
