VlPAG/DRN Microglia Drive Neuropathic Pain‐Induced Depression via a Defined Neuroimmune Axis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 61, 3 November 2026.
Peripheral nerve injury (SNI) induces neuropathic pain, activates midbrain microglia, and triggers an NLRP3–IL‐1β–dependent inflammatory cascade. IL‐1β signals through IL‐1R1 on vlPAG/DRN VGLUT2+ neurons (vlPAG/DRNGlu), inducing hyperexcitability and driving the vlPAG/DRNGlu→BNSTGABA circuit to produce the affective component of neuropathic pain ...

Immune cells in the pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm: Roles, regulation and targeted interventions

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of how macrophages, neutrophils, T cells and other immune cells infiltrate the aortic wall, undergo phenotypic shifts and interact with one another in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a lethal degenerative vascular disease with no approved clinical drugs. Immune

Purinergic receptor expression in neuronal, bladder smooth muscle and urothelial cells: characterization and inhibition by low molecular weight antagonists [PDF]

, 2009
P2 purinoceptors comprise ionotropic (P2X) and metabotropic (P2Y) receptor families, responsive to nucleotide ligands and diversely distributed on virtually every mammalian cell. Most cells and tissues co-express multiple subtypes of purinoceptor; thus,

ATP Release and Purinergic Signaling Potentiate β‐Adrenergic Effects on Brown Adipocytes

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Brown adipose tissue (BAT) specializes in energy consumption and thermogenesis in response to cold stress. Brown adipocytes (BA) express purinergic receptors, yet little is known about the source of extracellular ATP and the role of purinergic signaling, and the potential interaction with β‐adrenergic signaling.

Purinergic receptors in skeletal muscles in health and in muscular dystrophy [PDF]

, 2014
The P2 purinergic (nucleotide) receptor super-family comprises of two families of protein. The P2X, which are channel-forming ionotropic receptors and the P2Y metabotropic receptors activating G protein-mediated signalling pathways.

Purinergic Receptor P2Y2 Regulates Neurogenesis and Functional Recovery Following Spinal Cord Injury in Zebrafish

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
Although purinergic P2Y2 receptor can regulate neural stem cell (NSC) proliferation and neurogenesis in mammals, it is downregulated following spinal cord injury (SCI). It was previously unknown whether this receptor regulates these processes in the more‐regenerative zebrafish model, where the contribution of these responses allows near‐complete ...

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.

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2579-2614, September 2026.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Radiotherapy Enhances the Oncolytic Efficacy of the Novel Oncolytic Herpesvirus VG161 and Amplifies Its Antitumor Immunity in Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 52, 18 September 2026.
RT promotes VG161 replication in BC and its immunostimulatory transgenes expression, which is mediated by the upregulation of GADD34 and HVEM caused by RT. The combination therapy with VG161 and RT increases the abundances of tumor‐infiltrating lymphocytes and elicits potent systemic antitumor immunity, thereby effectively inhibiting local tumors and ...

P2 purinergic receptors of human eosinophils: characterization and coupling to oxygen radical production

, 2000
Extracellular nucleotides elicit multiple responses in eosinophils but no information on expression of purinergic receptors in these cells is available so far. In the present study we show that human eosinophils express the following P2Y and P2X subtypes:
