Astrocytes as central integrators of neural circuit function: Mechanisms and dysregulation in neuropsychiatric disorders

open access: yesClinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
1. Astrocytes are central integrators of neural circuit function through tripartite synapse modulation and neurovascular coupling. 2. Dysregulation of glutamate/GABA homeostasis and neuroinflammation represents shared mechanisms across diverse neuropsychiatric disorders. 3.

Probenecid Disrupts a Novel Pannexin 1-Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 2 Interaction and Increases Microtubule Stability

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Neurite formation relies on finely-tuned control of the cytoskeleton. Here we identified a novel protein-protein interaction between the ion and metabolite channel protein Pannexin 1 (Panx1) and collapsin response mediator protein 2 (Crmp2), a positive ...

Targeting inflammation in cardiometabolic disease: Icosapent ethyl modulates monocyte‐derived macrophages isolated from patients with cardiovascular disease with or without type 2 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetic Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Aims Despite intensive lipid‐lowering therapy, individuals with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) exhibit residual inflammatory risk, which drives recurrent cardiovascular events. This risk is amplified in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), where a pro‐inflammatory milieu accelerates atherogenesis. Monocyte‐derived macrophages (MDMs)

Pannexin 1 Modulates Axonal Growth in Mouse Peripheral Nerves

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
The pannexin family of channels consists of three members—pannexin-1 (Panx1), pannexin-2 (Panx2), and pannexin-3 (Panx3) that enable the exchange of metabolites and signaling molecules between intracellular and extracellular compartments.

A comparative antibody analysis of Pannexin1 expression in four rat brain regions reveals varying subcellular localizations

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2013
Pannexin1 (Panx1) channels release cytosolic ATP in response to signaling pathways. Panx1 is highly expressed in the central nervous system. We used four antibodies with different Panx1 anti-peptide epitopes to analyze four regions of rat brain.

Regulation of Pannexin 1 Surface Expression by Extracellular ATP: Potential Implications for Nervous System Function in Health and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Pannexin 1 (Panx1) channels are widely recognized for their role in ATP release, and as follows, their function is closely tied to that of ATP-activated P2X7 purinergic receptors (P2X7Rs).

Targeting pannexin1 improves seizure outcome.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Imbalance of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate and of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA is one of several causes of seizures. ATP has also been implicated in epilepsy.

Biochemical and Functional Analyses of PANX1 Variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pannexin 1 (PANX1) is a glycoprotein capable of forming large-pore single-membrane channels permeable to signaling molecules such as ATP. In this study, we interrogated different domains by introducing naturally occurring variants reported in melanoma and assessed their impact on the channel function of PANX1 at the cell surface.

Emerging functions of Pannexin 1 in the eye

open access: yesFrontiers 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 Regulates Bidirectional Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity in Adult Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
The threshold for bidirectional modification of synaptic plasticity is known to be controlled by several factors, including the balance between protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, postsynaptic free Ca2+ concentration and NMDA receptor (NMDAR ...
