Purinergic and Cholinergic Drugs Mediate Hyperventilation in Zebrafish: Evidence from a Novel Chemical Screen. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
A rapid test to identify drugs that affect autonomic responses to hypoxia holds therapeutic and ecologic value. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a convenient animal model for investigating peripheral O2 chemoreceptors and respiratory reflexes in ...

Alterations in histamine responses between juvenile and adult urinary bladder urothelium, lamina propria and detrusor tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Inflammatory mediators may have a role in various lower urinary tract disorders. Histamine is known to induce significant increases in both the tension and frequency of spontaneous phasic contractions in both urothelium with lamina propria (U&LP) and

Novel Organelle‐Based Intracellular Immunity With Mechanistic and Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesBarrier Immunity, EarlyView.
A conceptual framework illustrating how PAMPs/DAMPs initiate barrier, innate, adaptive, and intracellular immune responses, with organelle‐based intracellular immunity serving as a central integrator linking metabolism, inflammatory signaling, and therapeutic interventions to restore immune homeostasis.

Purinergic System Signaling in Metainflammation-Associated Osteoarthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
Inflammation triggered by metabolic imbalance, also called metainflammation, is low-grade inflammation caused by the components involved in metabolic syndrome (MetS), including central obesity and impaired glucose tolerance. This phenomenon is mainly due

Serum amyloid A primes microglia for ATP-dependent interleukin-1\u3b2 release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Acute-phase response is a systemic reaction to environmental/inflammatory insults and involves production of acute-phase proteins, including serum amyloid A (SAA).

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Purinergic Signaling in Swallowing Reflex Initiation: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications for Oropharyngeal Dysphagia—A Narrative Review

open access: yesCells
The swallowing reflex is a highly coordinated process that is essential for safe bolus transit and airway protection. Although its neurophysiological framework has been extensively studied, the molecular mechanisms underlying reflex initiation remain ...

mGluR1 receptors contribute to non-purinergic slow excitatory transmission to submucosal VIP neurons of guinea-pig ileum

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2009
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) immunoreactive secretomotor neurons in the submucous plexus are involved in mediating bacterial toxin-induced hypersecretion leading to diarrhoea.

Transcriptional and translational differences of microglia from male and female brains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Sex differences in brain structure and function are of substantial scientific interest because of sex-related susceptibility to psychiatric and neurological disorders. Neuroinflammation is a common denominator of many of these diseases and thus microglia

Purinergic receptors on blood platelets

open access: yesPlatelets, 1996
Extracellular adenine nucleotides interact with P2 purinergic receptors to regulate a broad range of physiological processes among which platelet aggregation P2 purinoceptors were divided into two main groups: the G-protein coupled receptor or 'metabotropic' superfamily termed P2Y and the ligand-gated ion channel or 'ionotropic receptor' superfamily ...
