P2X3 receptor antagonism improves hindlimb blood flow during exercise in a conscious ovine model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A preclinical large‐animal model of hypertensive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) was used to examine the role of purinergic P2X3 receptor signalling during treadmill exercise. Animals were instrumented with either thoracic cardiac output and coronary flow probes or abdominal renal and hindlimb blood flow ...

Purinergic signalling: past, present and future [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

CD39 on CD8+ Tumour‐Infiltrating Lymphocytes: A Paradoxical Marker of Tumour Reactivity and Immunosuppression

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 10, October 2026.
On tumour‐reactive CD8+ TILs, CD39 drives two opposing fates at once: It marks cells actively cytolysing tumour cells via released ATP, yet also degrades that same ATP into adenosine, triggering A2AR signalling that locks the cells into a hypoxia‐amplified, self‐reinforcing immunosuppressive loop, blunting their own anti‐tumour action.

Graph neural networks-based prediction of drug gene association of P2X receptors in periodontal pain

open access: yesJournal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research
The P2X7 receptor, a member of the P2X receptor family, plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, particularly pain perception. Its expression across immune, neuronal, and glial cells facilitates the release of pro-inflammatory molecules ...

Small Molecule Therapeutic Approaches With a Greater Focus on Hearing Loss: A Review

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hearing loss (HL) is one of the most common sensory impairments worldwide and has substantial effects on quality of life and daily functioning. Although cochlear implants and hearing aids have markedly improved the management of hearing impairment, these devices do not directly address the underlying pathogenic mechanisms ...

Acute pulpitis promotes purinergic signaling to induce pain in rats via P38MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway

open access: yesMolecular Pain
Toothache is one of the most common types of pain, but the mechanisms underlying pulpitis-induced pain remain unknown. The ionotropic purinergic receptor family (P2X) is reported to mediate nociception in the nervous system.

Role of ion channels in the pathogenesis of psoriasis

open access: yesPifu-xingbing zhenliaoxue zazhi
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease involving immune dysregulation, abnormal proliferation of keratinocytes(KCs), and neurogenic inflammation, with its molecular mechanisms not yet fully elucidated.

Neuropathic Pain: From Mechanisms to Therapeutic Interventions

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Neuropathic pain arises from peripheral nerve injury, central sensitization, neurotransmitter imbalance, neuroimmune activation, and maladaptive circuit remodeling. Clinical phenotyping and multimodal imaging can identify dominant peripheral and central mechanisms.

Purinergic Signaling: Impact of GPCR Structures on Rational Drug Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The purinergic signaling system includes membrane-bound receptors for extracellular purines and pyrimidines, and enzymes/transporters that regulate receptor activation by endogenous agonists.
