Purinergic receptors participate, in almost every cell type, in controlling metabolic activities and many physiological functions including signal transmission, proliferation and differentiation. While most of P2Y receptors induce transient elevations of

Abstract Objective Studies in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) have shown that focal inflammation is a key contributor to seizure initiation and maintenance. However, most in vivo studies to date have focused on positron emission tomography (PET) findings. In this exploratory study, we assessed the relationship between multicompartment Neurite Orientation ...

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

Abstract Ageing is a risk factor for cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. The myogenic response in resistance arteries is responsible for basal (myogenic) tone and blood flow autoregulation. G‐protein‐coupled receptors and G12/RhoA/Rho kinase are implicated in myogenic tone (MT), and we aimed to clarify their role in pressure sensing and ...

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Background/Aims: Adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPR), a product of β-NAD+ metabolism generated by the multifunctional enzyme CD38, is recognized as a novel signaling molecule. The catalytic site of CD38 orients extracellularly or intracellularly, capable

Abstract figure legend The glia‐immune network involves the communication(s) of glia via immune signalling pathways. In neuro‐homeostasis these pathways have been shown to modulate key processes such as synaptic pruning and myelination. The dynamics of these processes is critical to CNS function.

The P2X7 Receptor in Inflammatory Diseases: Angel or Demon?
Under physiological conditions, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is present at low levels in the extracellular milieu, being massively released by stressed or dying cells.
