Drug-like antagonists of P2Y receptors — from lead identification to drug development [PDF]

, 2016
P2Y receptors are expressed in virtually all cells and tissue types and mediate an astonishing array of biological functions, including platelet aggregation, smooth muscle cell proliferation, and immune regulation.

Progress on the development of Class A GPCR‐biased ligands

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Class A G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) continue to garner interest for their essential roles in cell signalling and their importance as drug targets. Although numerous drugs in the clinic target these receptors, over 60% GPCRs remain unexploited. Moreover, the adverse effects triggered by the available unbiased GPCR modulators, limit their use and

Purinergic signalling: past, present and future [PDF]

, 2009
The discovery of non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic neurotransmission in the gut and bladder in the early 1960's is described as well as the identification of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) as a transmitter in these nerves in the early 1970's.

Pre- and postsynaptic actions of ATP on neurotransmission in rat submandibular ganglia [PDF]

, 2001
The pre- and postsynaptic actions of exogenously applied ATP were investigated in intact and dissociated parasympathetic neurotics of rat submandibular ganglia.

Mechanisms of enteric neuropathy in diverse contexts of gastrointestinal dysfunction

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Abstract The enteric nervous system (ENS) commands moment‐to‐moment gut functions through integrative neurocircuitry housed in the gut wall. The functional continuity of ENS networks is disrupted in enteric neuropathies and contributes to major disturbances in normal gut activities including abnormal gut motility, secretions, pain, immune dysregulation,

Activation of Adenosine Phosphate Signaling Promotes Antitumor Immunity in Tumor Microenvironment and Facilitate Immunotherapy

MedComm – Oncology, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
A comprehensive analysis of the purinergic signaling mediated by P2 receptors (P2Rs) was conducted at both bulk, single‐cell, and spatial transcriptomic levels, evaluating the prognostic and predictive value of the adenosine signaling pathway in cancer immunotherapy.

Harnessing nucleotide metabolism and immunity in cancer: a tumour microenvironment perspective

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 9, Page 2155-2172, May 2025.
This review explores how changes in nucleotide metabolism affect the tumour microenvironment and immune responses in cancer. Here, we discuss the dual role of nucleotide metabolism in promoting cancer cell growth and shaping immune suppression. We highlight how therapies targeting nucleotide pathways can enhance immunotherapy efficacy, offering new ...

Extracellular ATP: an emerging multifaceted regulator of plant fitness

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 5, Page 1771-1782, May 2025.
Summary Adenosine 5′‐triphosphate (ATP) is the energy currency of living organisms and the primary form of organic phosphate (Po) involved in cellular metabolism. In plants, some ATP is released into the extracellular matrix (ECM) in response to various stimuli, where it functions as extracellular ATP (eATP), a key signalling molecule.
