Exploring the Impact of Urolithins A and B on Muscle Health: A Transcriptomic Analysis in Human Myotubes

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Urolithin A (UA) and urolithin B (UB) are gut microbiota‐derived metabolites of ellagitannins reported to influence mitochondrial function, inflammation and muscle metabolism. Their comparative transcriptomic effects in human skeletal muscle cells remain undefined.

Role of an Aromatic–Aromatic Interaction in the Assembly and Trafficking of the Zebrafish Panx1a Membrane Channel

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Pannexin 1 (Panx1) is a ubiquitously expressed hexameric integral membrane protein known to function as an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release channel. Panx1 proteins exist in unglycosylated core form (Gly0).

Connexins, Pannexins and Gap Junctions in Perinatal Brain Injury

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Perinatal brain injury secondary to hypoxia-ischemia and/or infection/inflammation remains a major cause of disability. Therapeutic hypothermia significantly improves outcomes, but in randomized controlled trials nearly half of infants still died or ...

Spatial and Temporal Heterogeneity of Macrophage Efferocytosis in Tumors: Emerging Implications for Immunotherapy Biomarkers and Therapeutic Timing

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Resistance to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) remains a major barrier in cancer therapy, reflecting the fact that tumor immunity is governed not only by cell type abundance but also by spatial organization and temporal dynamics within the tumor microenvironment (TME).

Regulation of Pannexin 1 Channels by ATP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Pannexins represent a recently discovered second family of gap junction proteins in vertebrates. However, instead of forming intercellular gap junction channels like connexins, pannexins operate as unpaired pannexons, allowing the flux of molecules from ...

Single-cell dynamics of pannexin-1-facilitated programmed ATP loss during apoptosis

open access: yeseLife, 2020
ATP is essential for all living cells. However, how dead cells lose ATP has not been well investigated. In this study, we developed new FRET biosensors for dual imaging of intracellular ATP level and caspase-3 activity in single apoptotic cultured human ...

Migraine: Epidemiology, Risk Factors, Pathophysiology, and Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Migraine is a highly prevalent, female‐predominant, and disabling brain disorder shaped by genetic susceptibility, hormonal influences, modifiable attack factors, and comorbidity‐related progression. This review integrates current evidence on migraine epidemiology, phase‐specific neurovascular and neuroglial mechanisms, including CGRP signaling and ...

Connexins, Pannexins, and Their Channels in Fibroproliferative Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Membrane Biology, 2016
Cellular and molecular mechanisms of wound healing, tissue repair, and fibrogenesis are established in different organs and are essential for the maintenance of function and tissue integrity after cell injury. These mechanisms are also involved in a plethora of fibroproliferative diseases or organ-specific fibrotic disorders, all of which are ...

PANX2 Suppresses Lung Adenocarcinoma Progression by Inducing Disulfidptosis and Enhancing Antitumor Immunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains a leading cause of cancer mortality with limited therapeutic options. Disulfidptosis, a novel cell death modality driven by disulfide stress, represents a promising target, yet its regulation in LUAD is poorly defined. Here, we identify Pannexin 2 (PANX2) as a tumor suppressor in LUAD.

Connexins and Pannexins in Vascular Function and Disease [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Connexins (Cxs) and pannexins (Panxs) are ubiquitous membrane channel forming proteins that are critically involved in many aspects of vascular physiology and pathology. The permeation of ions and small metabolites through Panx channels, Cx hemichannels and gap junction channels confers a crucial role to these proteins in intercellular communication ...
