HIF-Regulated Pannexin-1 Channel Drives Luminal ATP Accumulation in Kidney Cysts. [PDF]

open access: yesFASEB J
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.

Small Cell Lung Cancer Establishes a Metabolic Autocrine Mechanism Through Active Extracellular ATP Transport. [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Sci
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) actively exports ATP through PANX1 channels, triggering P2RX7‐mediated autocrine signaling and promoting tumor proliferation. Inhibition of PANX1 or P2RX7 disrupts this loop and suppresses tumor growth. ABSTRACT Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy with a 5‐year survival rate of less than 7%.

Investigation of olfactory function in a Panx1 knock out mouse model

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
Pannexin 1 (Panx1), the most extensively investigated member of a channel-forming protein family, is able to form pores conducting molecules up to 1.5 kDa, like ATP, upon activation.

Activity and Stability of Panx1 Channels in Astrocytes and Neuroblastoma Cells Are Enhanced by Cholesterol Depletion

open access: yesCells, 2022
Pannexin1 (Panx1) is expressed in both neurons and glia where it forms ATP-permeable channels that are activated under pathological conditions such as epilepsy, migraine, inflammation, and ischemia.

Prothrombotic Activation of Platelet Pannexin-1 Channels in Antiphospholipid Syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Rheumatol
Objective ATP is released from platelets through both degranulation and pannexin‐1 (PANX1) channels. ATP then activates P2X receptors to amplify platelet activation via calcium‐dependent signaling. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of platelet PANX1 channels in the pathophysiology of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), an acquired ...

A Potential Compensatory Role of Panx3 in the VNO of a Panx1 Knock Out Mouse Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Pannexins (Panx) are integral membrane proteins, with Panx1 being the best-characterized member of the protein family. Panx1 is implicated in sensory processing, and knockout (KO) animal models have become the primary tool to investigate the role(s) of ...

The Contribution of Astrocyte and Neuronal Panx1 to Seizures Is Model and Brain Region Dependent

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2021
Pannexin1 (Panx1) is an ATP release channel expressed in neurons and astrocytes that plays important roles in CNS physiology and pathology. Evidence for the involvement of Panx1 in seizures includes the reduction of epileptiform activity and ictal ...

Quercetin induces pannexin 1 expression via an alternative transcript with a translationally active 5′ leader in rhabdomyosarcoma

open access: yesOncogenesis, 2022
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a deadly cancer of skeletal muscle origin. Pannexin 1 (PANX1) is down-regulated in RMS and increasing its levels drastically inhibits RMS progression.

Myeloid Pannexin-1 mediates acute leukocyte infiltration and leads to worse outcomes after brain trauma

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2020
Background Neuroinflammation is a major component of secondary damage after traumatic brain injury (TBI). We recently reported that pharmacological inhibition of Pannexin-1 (Panx1) channels markedly reduced the inflammatory response after TBI.
