Purinergic receptors in airway hydration
Biochemical Pharmacology, 2021Airway epithelial purinergic receptors control key components of the mucociliary clearance (MCC), the dominant component of pulmonary host defense. In healthy airways, the periciliary liquid (PCL) is optimally hydrated, thus acting as an efficient lubricant layer over which the mucus layer moves by ciliary force.

Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2003
Activation of P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors, through secreted ADP that is stimulated by agonists such as thrombin, thromboxane and collagen, is a major mechanism of platelet activation. P2X(1) receptors also participate in platelet shape change and potentiation of calcium mobilization.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1990
In rabbits the contractile response of the urinary bladder is only partially due to cholinergic innervation since atropine does not completely block neuronally mediated contractions. In the human bladder this atropine resistance is controversial with some reporting atropine resistance in vitro while others have stated that the atropine resistance is ...

Signaling at Purinergic P2X Receptors
Annual Review of Physiology, 2009P2X receptors are membrane cation channels gated by extracellular ATP. Seven P2X receptor subunits (P2X1-7) are widely distributed in excitable and nonexcitable cells of vertebrates. They play key roles in inter alia afferent signaling (including pain), regulation of renal blood flow, vascular endothelium, and inflammatory responses.

Purinergic receptors, prostacyclin and atherosclerosis
Pharmacological Research, 1992Over the last decade, evidence has been provided that endothelial cells have a metabolic function in order to maintain blood vessel homeostasis. The endothelium releases relaxing and contracting factors in response to endogenous or exogenous substances such as acetylcholine, calcimycine, adenosine 5'triphosphate (ATP), bradykinin, arachidonic acid and ...

There is a brief summary of the early background literature about purinergic signalling and its involvement in pain, of ATP storage, release and ectoenzymatic breakdown and of the current classification of receptor subtypes for purines and pyrimidines. The review then focuses on purinergic mechanosensory transduction involved in visceral, cutaneous and

An Introduction to Purinergic Receptors [PDF]
Adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) was primarily considered as an intracellular energy source for many years. However, during the past fifty years purine nucleotides and nucleosides have been shown to have potent extracellular actions on excitable membranes which may be involved in physiological regulatory processes (Berne, 1963; Burnstock, 1972, 1975 ...
