COVID-19 disease is associated with progressive accumulation of SARS-CoV-2-specific mRNA, which is recognized by innate immune receptors, such as TLR3. This in turn leads to dysregulated production of multiple cytokines, including IL-6, IFN-γ, CXCL1, and

P2 Receptors as Therapeutic Targets in the Salivary Gland: From Physiology to Dysfunction
Although often overlooked in our daily lives, saliva performs a host of necessary physiological functions, including lubricating and protecting the oral cavity, facilitating taste sensation and digestion and maintaining tooth enamel.

Activation of the P2Y2 receptor regulates bone cell function by enhancing ATP release [PDF]
Bone cells constitutively release ATP into the extracellular environment where it acts locally via P2 receptors to regulate bone cell function. Whilst P2Y2 receptor stimulation regulates bone mineralisation, the functional effects of this receptor in ...

Long-term (trophic) purinergic signalling: purinoceptors control cell proliferation, differentiation and death [PDF]
The purinergic signalling system, which uses purines and pyrimidines as chemical transmitters, and purinoceptors as effectors, is deeply rooted in evolution and development and is a pivotal factor in cell communication.

Comparative hydrolysis of P2 receptor agonists by NTPDases 1, 2, 3 and 8
Nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases 1, 2, 3 and 8 (NTPDases 1, 2, 3 and 8) are the dominant ectonucleotidases and thereby expected to play important roles in nucleotide signaling. Distinct biochemical characteristics of individual NTPDases should
