Release of ATP and glutamate in the nucleus tractus solitarii mediate pulmonary stretch receptor (Breuer-Hering) reflex pathway [PDF]
The Breuer-Hering inflation reflex is initiated by activation of the slowly adapting pulmonary stretch receptor afferents (SARs), which monosynaptically activate second-order relay neurones in the dorsal medullary nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS ...

New insights into purinergic receptor signaling in neuronal differentiation, neuroprotection, and brain disorders [PDF]
Ionotropic P2X and metabotropic P2Y purinergic receptors are expressed in the central nervous system and participate in the synaptic process particularly associated with acetylcholine, GABA, and glutamate neurotransmission. As a result of activation, the

Mouse Leydig cells express multiple P2X receptor subunits
ATP acts on cellular membranes by interacting with P2X (ionotropic) and P2Y (metabotropic) receptors. Seven homomeric P2X receptors (P2X(1)-P2X(7)) and seven heteromeric receptors (P2X(1/2), P2X(1/4), P2X(1/5), P2X(2/3), P2X(2/6), P2X(4/6), P2X(4/7 ...

P2X7 Receptor Modulation of Visual Responses in the Retina [PDF]
Adenosine 5’ triphosphate (ATP)-gated P2X7 receptors (P2X7Rs) are known to act as conduits for photoreceptor and retinal ganglion cell (RGC) damage, consequences of various neurodegenerative conditions within the visual pathway. Growing evidence supports

Investigation on 2′,3′-O-Substituted ATP Derivatives and Analogs as Novel P2X3 Receptor Antagonists [PDF]
Antagonists of the purinergic P2X3 receptors represent promising drugs for the treatment of inflammation and pain. The ATP derivative 2′,3′-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-ATP (TNP-ATP) has been described as a potent competitive inhibitor of this receptor.

Purinergic Signalling and Neurological Diseases: An Update [PDF]
Purinergic signalling, i.e. ATP as an extracellular signalling molecule and cotransmitter in both peripheral and central neurons, is involved in the physiology of neurotransmission and neuromodulation.

Detection of P2X purinergic receptors on human B lymphocytes
B lymphocytes are known to synthesise the P2X(7) subtype of the P2X purinergic receptor family; however, the identification of the other six P2X subtypes on these cells has been limited by the absence of specific antibodies.
