ADP receptor P2Y(13) induce apoptosis in pancreatic beta-cells.

open access: yes, 2010
Pancreatic beta-cell loss represents a key factor in the pathogenesis of diabetes. Since the influence of purinergic signaling in beta-cell apoptosis has not been much investigated, we examined the role of the ADP receptor P2Y(13) using the pancreatic ...

The Role of Neuropeptide Y in Dental Pulp: Balancing Neurogenic Inflammation and Pain Modulation

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental pulp is a densely innervated, low‐compliance tissue in which neurogenic inflammation can rapidly escalate into oedema, raised intrapulpal pressure, microvascular compromise, and pain. While Substance P (SP) and Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) are well‐established drivers of pulp vasodilation, the Neuroopeptide Y (NPY ...

Postnatal developmental changes in the laryngeal chemosensory cell clusters of rats

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Chemosensory cell clusters appeared in the rat larynx 2 days after birth and were already connected to afferent nerve fibers. Their number increased until 3 weeks of age, then stabilized while continuing to grow through the addition of new cells. Because their number reached a plateau around the time of weaning, their development may be linked to ...

The P2X7 Receptor in Inflammatory Diseases: Angel or Demon?

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Under physiological conditions, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is present at low levels in the extracellular milieu, being massively released by stressed or dying cells.

Peri‐Implantitis and Periodontitis: Biological Convergence, Contextual Divergence

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Periodontal and peri‐implant tissues differ and coincide in many aspects, from the clinical and radiological perspective, including histology, microbiology, and molecular markers. Thus, health and disease may also follow different and similar routes.

NPY mediates ATP-induced neuroproliferation in adult mouse olfactory epithelium

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2010
In the CNS, ATP is released upon injury and promotes neuroproliferation via purinergic receptors. In the olfactory epithelium, ATP promotes the synthesis and release of neurotrophic factor NPY in neonates and induces neuroproliferation in neonatal and ...

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
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 ...

P2X7 Receptor: Warburg effect revisited

open access: yes, 2012
Ability to adapt to conditions of limited nutrient supply is a key feature of all cells. This may require a complex re-organization of metabolic pathways to balance energy generation and production of biosynthetic intermediates.

Purinergic Receptors in Dendritic Cells

open access: yesJournal of Inflammation Research
Dendritic cells (DCs) are regarded as highly effective antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and play a crucial role in immunomodulation. A growing body of research focuses on extracellular purines and their purinergic receptors in DCs. In this review, we provide an overview of the expression and function of purinergic receptors (P1 and P2) in DCs.
