HIF‐Regulated Pannexin‐1 Channel Drives Luminal ATP Accumulation in Kidney Cysts [PDF]
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease causes progressive cyst enlargement in the kidneys, leading to hypoxia and induction of HIF‐1α. Our study identifies HIF‐1α‐dependent transcriptional upregulation of Pannexin1 (PANX1) in the apical membrane of cyst epithelial cells, promoting ATP release into the cyst lumen.

Connexin and pannexin (hemi)channels in the liver [PDF]
The liver was among the first organs in which connexin proteins have been identified. Hepatocytes harbour connexin32 and connexin26, while non-parenchymal liver cells typically express connexin43.

Pannexin-1 and other anion channels in platelets and megakaryocytes
Platelet ion channels are essential for Ca2+-influx, maintaining the resting membrane potential and cell volume regulation. Cation channels have been widely studied but few reports of platelet anion channels exist.

Pharmacology of pannexin channels
Pannexin channels play fundamental roles in regulating inflammation and have been implicated in many diseases including hypertension, stroke, and neuropathic pain. Thus, the ability to pharmacologically block these channels is a vital component of several therapeutic approaches.

Activation and Inhibition of Pannexin 1 Channels [PDF]
Pannexin 1 is one of three pannexins, a vertebrate protein family related to the invertebrate innexins. Unlike its innexin relatives, Pannexin 1 does not form gap junctions in vivo, but it does form plasma membrane channels that act as ATP release ...

Implications of pannexin 1 and pannexin 3 for keratinocyte differentiation [PDF]
Pannexin (Panx) 1 and Panx3 are integral membrane proteins that share some sequence homology with the innexin family of invertebrate gap junctions. They are expressed in mammalian skin. Pannexins have been reported to form functional mechanosensitive single-membrane channels, but their importance in regulating cellular function is poorly understood. In

Lymphatic Connexins and Pannexins in Health and Disease [PDF]
This review highlights current knowledge on the expression and function of connexins and pannexins, transmembrane channel proteins that play an important role in intercellular communication, in both the developing and mature lymphatic vasculature. A particular focus is given to the involvement of these proteins in functions of the healthy lymphatic ...

Gap junctions, pannexins and pain [PDF]
Enhanced expression and function of gap junctions and pannexin (Panx) channels have been associated with both peripheral and central mechanisms of pain sensitization. At the level of the sensory ganglia, evidence includes augmented gap junction and pannexin1 expression in glial cells and neurons in inflammatory and neuropathic pain models and increased

Pannexin-1 channel regulates nuclear content packaging into apoptotic bodies and their size
Apoptotic bodies (ApoBDs), which are large extracellular vesicles exclusively released by apoptotic cells, possess therapeutically exploitable properties including biomolecule loadability and transferability.
