The Potential of Purinergic Signaling to Thwart Viruses Including SARS-CoV-2
A long-shared evolutionary history is congruent with the multiple roles played by purinergic signaling in viral infection, replication and host responses that can assist or hinder viral functions.

The relationship between P2X4 and P2X7: a physiologically important interaction? [PDF]
Purinergic signaling within the kidney is becoming an important focus in the study of renal health and disease. The effectors of ATP signaling, the P2Y and P2X receptors, are expressed to varying extents in and along the nephron.

Microglia modulate blood flow, neurovascular coupling, and hypoperfusion via purinergic actions
Microglia modulate cerebral blood flow (CBF) through complex purinergic actions, which are mediated by dynamic, P2Y12 receptor-driven interactions with the vasculature. Microglial actions are partially independent of nitric oxide.

Changes in P2Y Purinergic Receptor Expression in the Ciliary Body in a Murine Model of Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a neuropathology, often accompanied by an elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), which can lead to blindness. Since DBA/2J mice develop glaucoma, several studies of the physiopathology of glaucoma have been reported in this animal model.

Contraction of intestinal effector T cells by retinoic acid-induced purinergic receptor P2X7
The intestinal environment harbors a large number of activated T cells, which are potentially inflammatory. To prevent inflammatory responses, intestinal T cells are controlled by various tolerogenic mechanisms, including T-cell apoptosis.

Purinergic Receptors in Thrombosis and Inflammation [PDF]
Under various pathological conditions, including thrombosis and inflammation, extracellular nucleotide levels may increase because of both active release and passive leakage from damaged or dying cells. Once in the extracellular compartment, nucleotides interact with plasma membrane receptors belonging to the P2 purinergic family, which ...
